Production wrapped up: Title Nat 20 PP#16

     Before going any further about the production, or at least, the physical portion of my production, I think I should talk about the actual title of the film, and my opening.  Before making my screenplay, the script, and even the storyboard, I didn't really have an idea in mind for the title and pretty much only had the idea of the opening in mind.  I'd figured I'd need a title, not only for the actual filming and editing but to also give my film some direction.  

    Well, I wanted the title to be referenced to something within the film.  And since DnD is such a major portion of my phone, I was thinking of using a term that is prominent within the DnD community, yet still seems a little bit vague from someone from the outside.  This would entail the viewer looking into the term, and learning more about it.  After some fiddling around, I also wanted the term to be in reference with luck.  Towards the end of my scene, the character has to leave his friends and proceeds to head home in a distraught sort of manner.  His friends wish him luck as he leaves, so that's pretty much why I want to have the idea of luck to be prominent.  

    Nat 20 is the name I decided to land on for the film for a couple reasons.  For instance, the little friend group seen in the film is called the Nat 20 club.  Moreover, the term would most likely resonates throughout the friend group seen in the scene.  "Nat 20" is when you roll a 20 sided dice, and land a 20.  So I want the idea of DnD, which is the way that the friend group mostly interacts, to be heavily associated with the term luck.  



    In another blog posting, I plan on touching on the overall idea of the film since I have a couple ideas in mind, but for the time being...
    I hope you enjoyed my explanation of the film!
