Production Logo Research

Production Logo Research

 

 This logo is simple, yet effective. The image of the key hole could be transferred and used in our own logo as it suggests the production company is fond of psychological thrillers and you need the key to find out all the answers. The plain black background could be a little dull, and not make our theme of drugs and teenagers clear. As this production logo has no colour at all, I believe this could look a little too plain and make other production logo's stand out just because of their more vibrant colouring. The name of the production company "Locked" could also help  us to decide upon what our name shoule be as "Locked" sounds mysterious and secretive. 

 

I believe this logo is more effective with the use of the colour red. The colour red suggests danger, blood and is also a colour that stands out. The use of this colour red on a black background also makes the logo look more eerie and spooky. The font of the working looks edgy and is in bold, which looks good and supports the type of films our production company would be creating; including our film which we are aiming to be very dark and psycholigical.

 

All the production company logos I have seen that mostly create psychological thrillers use the colours black, red and white. This is because these colours promote their films the best. Although, most of the logo backgrounds are black this logo is more bright and less negative. This white background makes the writing stand out more, and the way it's underlines makes it even more clear. I like this idea for our own logo as it's unique from the other black logo's and makes it seem as though our production company doesn't just create horror films, but also creates different genres of films such as dramas, thrillers and sci-fi's.

These different logo's give us idea's for our own logo and how we can make it unique and different to other logo's of production company's that are similar to our own and create the same genre of films.
