Production company deconstruction

Production Company Deconstruction


Universal is an American film studio that was founded on April 30th 1912 by  a German man called Carl Laemmle, many other people were also involved but he was the main person. When it was first created it was called Universal Film Manufacturing Company.


In the production company logo, dramatic music with drums plays non-diegetically while the camera zooms out, revealing the Earth with lights dotted around the countries and ‘Universal’ comes from behind the Earth to the front and stops in the middle of the shot. 
A logo like this would be very hard to make without the equipment needed for CGI, however it could be possible using mini models of the Earth, which is what Universal used for their logo in the past.
 
Some famous recent films include; 
  • Jurassic World (currently the highest grossing Universal film)





 
  • Fast and Furious 7







  • Pitch Perfect 2











  • The Lorax












Student Production Company Logo


This logo is very short and simple, it is a black and white drawing of a skyline with added in effects to make it better. While the skyline is being 'drawn' there is the sound of a pencil drawing it while it is also flickering. The only text is the name of the production company which is written in white capital letters and says 'Capital Cinema'.

I think that this production company logo could have been made on Photoshop or another drawing and editing software, so it would be quite easy to make if you already know about how to do it. I don't know very much about how to use Photoshop so I would find it difficult to do something like this. 
 
I really like the simplicity of it because it is only three seconds long and there isn't much happening in it but it is still very detailed and interesting to watch, it also looks very professional.
