Title patterns that keep working

  • The [adjective] [noun] — the default, and the reason it is the default is that it never fails.
  • A place name — sets the whole mood in one word.
  • A countdown or a number — promises structure and a clock.
  • A single abstract noun — reads as serious drama, and dates fast.

Test it as a poster

Write your favourite three at the size they would appear on a phone screen in a streaming grid. The one still readable and still intriguing at that size is the one to keep, regardless of which reads best on the page.

Frequently asked questions

What makes a good film title?

It hints at the genre without describing the plot. "The Last Job" tells you what kind of film it is and nothing about what happens, which is exactly right — the title sells the feeling, the trailer sells the story.

How long should it be?

One to four words covers most of them. A long title is a deliberate signal of comedy or of an art film, so use it only if that is the signal you want to send.

Can two films share a title?

Yes, and many do. Titles are not covered by copyright. In the industry the Motion Picture Association runs a voluntary registry to avoid clashes, but for a short or a student project there is nothing stopping you.
