Titles and Taglines
We through a lot of ideas for coming up with the title of our Horror teaser trailer. As we wanted our trailer/movie to have a 2014 modern twist to it, we decided that going with our third pitch we would have a group of four boys looking for paranormal activity and capturing the footage on a camera. We had many ideas for our titles. Once we had a finished title we then had to decide a tagline for our horror. We had come up with many ideas but none of them sounded quiet horror.
For our teaser trailer/horror movie we needed a name that would represent the main aim of our film. A group of people filming in abandoned places and then stumble across paranormal happenings. As our cam corder is featured a lot within the film, we needed a title that would link with videos. As we thought the ideas of paranormal experiences wasn't unique as you already have a lot of films name like 'Paranormal Activity' (2007) and 'Paranormal Incident' (2011)
We decided to choose the tagline 'Going Viral Could Get you Killed!'. It was between this and 'Going Viral Could Cost you your Life', but we thought that ware more of a mouthful to say and it wasn't exactly representing horror. We thought that we should keep it short and to the point. The word 'Killed' representing horror. Was the best tagline for our title we decided.
