Production company logos and types of films

i will be researching many different film production logos. this will help me in my horror film as i will have to make my own logo and name my own production company. below their will be research on Dreamworks, paramount pictures,vertigo films, take two productions, retro films, warp-films, universal and 20th century fox.

Dreamworks.
this production logo connotes that they make dreams come true hense the name dreamworks. also with them being up in the clouds maybe shows that they are higher then everyone else and any other production company. also their is a child sitting on the moon this shows that the company makes many childrens films and makes then feel good like they can do anything for example sit on the moon.                 


Paramount pictures.
this logo shows that paramound thinks they are at the top of the mountin, meaning they are better then anyone else. in the background is also shows they are above the clouds meaning they are high and a popular company. they also have a circle of stars around their name this shows maybe how many starts they are rated and with it being a circle it could mean it is never ending, also starts usually represent excellent meaning they are excellent at film production. also the name paramount is powerful is it could mean they are on the top of a mountin.


Vertigo films
this logo is very bland and their is not much detail on the logo this maybe shows they are not the biggest company and they do not make the biggest films. however the writing is black and is on a red background and this maybe shows they show horror and action films. the writing is also block capitals and which also shows is is serious and might not show as many comedys.






Take Two productions
this companys logo looks like it could show old fashoined films as it looks bland also because the image is off a film that is not often used now as CDs and DVDs are more popular, also the name "take two" maybe means it is showing repeats of films and making new versions of films already out on the market. this company is not a very big company and would not come close to paramount pictures ect.





Retro films
the name retro films connotes that is shows old films as retro is mainly thought of in the 1980s period. also the picture is of the top of a clapper board, this maybe shows they are a low budget company that maybe shows films just starting out and trying to be found in the production business. it is simple colours black and white maybe connotes films that are shown in black and white before colour tv's was invented.

Warp film production
this logo shows, in the background an image of what appears to be the earth or the world, therefore connoting they are out of this world and bigger then the earth. also we see the writing is accross a banner which looks like a lightning bolt, this connotes power and presence, this maybe shows that they are a powerful company that shows good films. the colours are black and white to make it stand out.

Universal 
this logo shows that "universal" is a big company. their image a picture of the earth with the background being out of space this connotes that they are out of this world and bigger and better then any other company. their is also a glow used around the earth to make it shine, this makes the earth stand out as the main image. also the font and colour of their name makes it stand out and makes it look important, it is silver and gold also all in block capitals showing that is is worth a lot, like gold and is a big and bold company.
20th century fox
this logo is good and also shows how big and important they are in the industy. firstly the spot lights around their name connotes their importance as if you are in the spot light it usually means you are the main priority. the name is made to look like it is solid gold as the colour is gold and shows an expensive company that makes expensive films. the angle of the shot is a low angle show to make the logo look big and powerful, the name of the company is right in the middle of the screen to show its importance. it is also on a raised platform connoting it is number 1.
