Up until this point, my film had not had a name. This is because of one very important reason: I hate naming stories I create. However, now that I have really created my characters and nailed down the idea for my opening, it felt like a good time to think of names for the project.
When I name things I like to take an impactful moment that the audience is going to remember and create a title from that, and for this story, it was no different.
The name I chose for my film is "In Between The Lines".
Here is the explanation behind the name. When the characters unknowingly first meet each other, they make eye contact between the shelves of a library. They can only catch a small glimpse of each other through the small line of space between the tops of the books and the next shelf. This is one instance of them being literally in between the lines of the shelves and the rows of books.
Also, their hobbies both include reading. Since they both read the same books in some cases, they will write notes for each other in the margins and in between the lines of text inside the books. In these books they leave small messages to each other between the lines and they can look back on them.
At the end of the story, when the girls go their separate ways, they have the small notes that were left in between the lines of the books they read for each other to look back on and never forget each other.
