Here is the
trailer:
My team have
selected a range of idents we could use in our trailer, however we had to
select one that would fit well with the trailer, the following is idents
we looked at:
Lions Gate:
Lions Gate
Entertainment Corporation is a North American entertainment company it was
formed in Vancover in July 3, 1997 and is ran in Santa Monica California.
As of 2012 it was named the most commercially successful independent
film and television distribution company in North America and the sixth most
profitable movie studio.Its first major box office success was American Psycho
in 2000 this began a trend of controversial movies for major film
companies.It was announced in January 2012 that it
had acquired Summit Entertainment producers
and distributors of the Twilight Saga films for $412.5 million The
two companies have planned merging since 2008.One of Its best success was the
Hunger Games the highest grossing film after just three days.The Ident used for
this production company has not changed vastly as its
a relatively new production company.However I feel this production
company would be best for my trailer as you can see that it has covered horror
films in its history, this is as well of its Ident being a good fit into
the trailer. As the Ident features dark clouds in the background with just
"LIONSGATE" spread across them simplistic and perfect for our
trailer. Also the example I have got is from a horror movie based in the
woods as like my teams is.

Paramount new
cinema:
Paramount
Pictures Corporation is a film and television production
and distribution company, it was founded in 1912 therefore making it
the fourth oldest existing film studio in the world behind Universal studios,
Pathe and Gaumont Pictures. The Paramount Pictures studio is the last remaining
major film studio still to be based in the Hollywood district of Los Angeles.
Paramount is ranked as one of the largest top grossing movie studios.
Paramount
are well established/known for there continued efforts and support in the
continuation of a single movie into a sequel (Franchise) such famous movies as
the Transformers movies, Paranormal Activity and The Godfather.
The
Paramount Ident/Logo is the oldest surviving Hollywood film
logo as it has been used since the beginning of Paramount
Pictures Corporation, its believed that the mountain is based of a doodle
made by one W. W . Hodkinson whilst in a meeting with Adolph Zukor, said
to be based of a fond memory of growing up in the state of Utah. Although it
remains the oldest Ident in Hollywood film it has gone through some
changes over its long existence. As the logo began with as a charcoal
rendering of the mountain ringed with superimposed stars
- originally 24 stars this was in tribute to the amount of actors
assigned at this time. In 1953 a newer, more realistic looking logo was
created for the purpose of 3D however it was later reworked
therefore made in widescreen process. By 1986 other known as there
75th anniversary a new logo was prepared - it was done by the use of
computer generated lakes and stars wold make a feature it was designed by
Dario Campanile. It was done so that instead of the stars
being superimposed they would move across the screen to create the arc shape.
Therefore I would say that this was the biggest changed brought into by
Paramount Pictures Corporation. This continued up until 2002 where as
it had its 90th anniversary, this brought round a whole new logo which included
shooting stars which would fall from the night sky to form an arc whilst
simultaneously the Paramount logo would fly into place between them. The next
change seen by Paramount was used firstly for another
franchised movie Mission Impossible this one being the 2011
Ghost Protocol - it involves the surrounding mountain range and the
sun shining in the background. It holds a disclaimer to be used until the
beginning of 2013, Therefore if my group where to sue this it would have to be
the new logo created.
However I
think that it is not the Ident to be used as I have not seen it used in
the Horror genre as of yet as it appears to be used in more action packed
movies and also used for franchised movies for example Mission
Impossible and Transformers.
Some
Other production companies I looked at but then dismissed where Warner
Brothers, Dream works, Walt Disney and 20 Century Fox. I
have dismissed the use of these due to the reason of them not
fitting my trailers genre for example take Warner Brother this
production company is massive possibly the biggest however they would not suit
the genre as its more children's fantasy movie or television
programs rather than for the use of Horror Movies.
