Production Companys

I have been looking at production company logos to that we can get inspiration for our own film. I am going to compare the logos between two very popular and well known company's. These are Columbia productions and paramount pictures.

When looking at these two pictures they both have similar and different comparisons. The similar things are they are both shown in the clouds. This may mean above all the rest (meaning above all other production companys). They both show unusual pictures. In columbia tthey show a flying horse and women that to be represents the human being of the statue of liberty. Paramount shows a mountain in the sky based on the mountain Ben Stack. The logo is a live action logo meaning there is interaction within the picture, in this case you zoom out of the picture following the stars and the stars also move round until you zoom out till the frame size of the picture above. Then paramount flows in aswell after you are fully zoomed out. The logo originally had twenty-four stars, as a tribute to the then current system of contracts for actors. 1974 the logo was simplified, adopting the design of the then-current television version, and the number of stars was changed to twenty-two; this version of the logo is still in use as Paramount's current print logo.

Columbia Trista Entertainment is an animation that starts with a bright light, which zooms out to reveal the torch and then the lady.

Major diffrences include obviously the people/objects included. The music included is also diffrent.
