Film Title



Made by me using genially

Production Company Logo


Logo was designed by me using photoshop

I offered to take up the job of designing our company logo since I like creating graphics in my free time. I decided to follow the normal action movies conventions which have a black background, a white image, and a black and white text type. 

I used the image of a film reel having kept in mind that this logo would be used for other movies as well. The JCENA font has splashes of white on it which conveys our company's release of films relating to the genre of action, and I felt like it would be appropriate to use.

Here are my sources of inspiration: 






As shown, the logo I created is somewhat similar to the ones I researched and found online. This is so that out film logo follows the normal movie conventions. However, although it would've been interesting to have an animated logo, none of us were able to do so so we used what we had. We decided that when we do use it in our film to just use the fade transition to make it look more appealing.

Overall Planning



Plans were made by Eman

Costume Moodboard


Made by Nour on piccollage

The collage above shows the various ideas of costumes we plan to use for all the characters: the mother, the main protagonist and her younger self, the referee, and the coach.

Since the colour red is symbolic in our movie, we plan to use it in the costumes and props as much as we can.

Each characters' costume will be symbolic in its own way, we still haven't confirmed what exactly we will do or if we have to buy anything, but for now this is our basic plan.

Film Name Planning


                                     Plan was made by Eman, ideas were given by all of us

All of us got together during class to plan what our film would be called. We each came up with different ideas for what we could use. Each title idea that we came up with had a deeper and symbolic meaning to it.

We couldn't really use long titles like 'Battle To Redemption' or 'Mind Over Matter' because it would be really hard to edit them in a way that would work with the ending types we came up with.

The one worded titles also couldn't be used because they didn't give the impact or effect we wanted them to give. 'Broken' sounded too cheesy and although 'Exnihilo' was good, most people wouldn't understand the Latin reference made.

So at the end we decided to use 'Black Heaven' as our film title. It was the one I came up with and we all agreed that it had the most impact out of the all the others.

The juxtaposing of the words help the audience understand the type of meaning behind the movie. As explained in the picture, we believe 'Black Heaven' is the best way to reflect our movie. It doesn't sound too awkward, and is actually helps leave an impression.
