Although the title of the production company said to have made our piece is not of much significance the group felt that the name of the production company that produces the piece would have to be related in some way to the chosen genre of film. For example Quentin Tarrantino's production company 'A Band Apart' is closely related to Tarrantino's genre of film mainly being independent cinema and of an indie orientation.
Individually we came up with our own production company names such as:
-Touchstone Pictures
-Cinescape
-Epic Entertainment
But none of these production company titles suited the genre of film we would be presenting to our audience and this could possibly disorient them.
Eventually after putting name after name to the table of discussion we came to a mutual decision.
-Prodigious Pictures
The name has an art house feel to it and conveys a sense of sophistication as to what the production company would produce. Also in using 'Pictures' instead of the word 'Production' psychologically it gives the viewer the feeling that the company is well established and prestigious.
We are not however going to design an image or logo to accompany the production company for the film. We feel that it would look more proffessional to have the Title of the Production company appear within the credits, as Short Film's mainly try and market upcoming talent and the work of the individuals involved rather then the company behind the piece.
