Production Logo


A production logo is a logo used by film studios and television production companies to brand what they produce and to determine the production company and the distributor of a television show or film.  Production Logo's usually appear at the beginning film or at the end of television programmes. 

Many production logos have become popular over the years.  These are;
  • 20th Century Fox's Monument and Search Light
  • Paramount Pictures's Mountains
  • Universal Studios's Spinning Globe
  • Warner Bro's Sheild
  • Columbia Pictures personification of Columbia
  • MGM's Leo the Lion
  • Walt Disney Pictures' Fantasy Castle

When creating the logo for my groups production I wanted to give it a cinema effect.  By doing this our audience would know that our products are mainly films.

I wanted to make the logo look as if it was a cinema screen so I decided to add three 3D rectangular shapes and placed them at a curve.  I then featured our production name 'Lucegan' which we came up with when putting our names together 'Lucy' and 'Megans'.  I wanted to place this on our logo as it was conventional for production logo's to feature the name and promote our company.  I placed the name in the middle 'screen' so that it easily be read when looking straight at it.

I also liked the idea of the search lights on the 20th Century Fox logo so I used a basic version of a cartooned search light and placed it at the bottom of the screens and shinning onto the production name.  This shows a successful production company and also represents the projector that cinema's use to show their footage.

This is the completed production company logo.
