Finishing Thriller

Last week, Jack and I finished editing our thriller, this included piecing many short clips together. We edited in scenes, we would put all of one scene together and then cut them down significantly. After doing that for all of the three scenes, we were still over the two minutes, so continued to cut down, it became harder and harder, as had cut down as much as we could, without making the film seem confusing or unconnected. We started using "cross fade" which is an effect where when one scene starts to end, it fades away slowly, revealing the next scene. The scene fading away still continues while the next scene is fading in. Saving time as well as adding a sense of mystery to the film. 
We have come up with a name for the film, after coming up with others, possible names were:
Affliction
Septic
Termination
"One Way Ticket"
Definitive gulp
Fatal Thirst Quencher
We decided upon "Affliction" as it is another word for poison or death. This partly reveals what the film will contain, while keeping the audience thinking about what happen, as the only thing they know is that death will occur at some point, but how, why and when it will happen, they don't.

We have yet to come up with a production name.
