Analysis of Production and Distribution Companies

20th Century Fox
The 20th Century Fox begins with the majestic tone of non diegetic music which makes it seem classy and sophisticated. It starts of with the bright spot lights and a close up on
the ‘20’. The lights again add with the royalty theme. It then starts to zoom out and it switched to a low angle to make it seem superior. The clip ends with an establishing
shot of the whole logo showing more of the 3D effect. The score music becomes higher pitched as the clip ends.
Village Roadshow Pictureshttps://www.youtube.com/watch?v=LuIuVl_bm44
The Village Roadshow Pictures begins with a more dreamy score music but it still has the spot lights which again adds sophistication and superiority. There is a close up on the ‘V’s’ which stands for ‘Village’. It then zooms out to show us the whole logo with the lights shining through from the back. The lights then fade out into black and the
name of the company shows up at the bottom.
Lionsgate
The Lionsgate logo begins with a close up on gear moving and then it begins to zoom out to reveal the keyhole and the door being opened. Then there is a bright light before
their company name appears. This can represent how much effort they put into their company and how everything links together. The score music starts off quiet an d then
climaxes when the door opens.

Inspiration
Things that we can add in our company logo:• Start off with a close up and then zoom out to reveal
• A climatic score music• Lights
These were the most common things that stuck out during my research which is why I took them as inspiration for when we
make our company logo.
