- When you create a title/headline for your film review or evaluation, you should become a critical thinker and get creative with your words.
- If your review was a news story -what would the headline look like?
- Think about a click-bait phrase that you may see online.
- Find a way to draw your reader (VIEWER OR LISTENER) in & tease your thoughts on the review.
- Play around with the title of the film.
- Offer a snapshot of your thoughts; tell readers what you are going to tell them .. before you tell them.
