TITLE - REQUIEM
I have decided to call the film 'Requiem', because it is short, punchy and meaningful. Requiem by definition is:
1. 'a song or hymn of mourning composed or performed as a memorial to a dead person'
2. 'a Mass celebrated for the dead'
Source: (http://www.thefreedictionary.com/requiem)
By this definition the title becomes an effective juxtaposition - it implies some sort of religious celebration to the dead. Yes, in this film almost everybody on earth is dead (billions), but that's not something to celebrate about, so it's also an unsettling title - a dark title, exactly what I'm looking for.
Below is the story Board I've been working on which will help me out when it comes to shooting film for this teaser trailer, next week.
