Wondering if there are fictional audiovisual identities? We've got you covered.

This page documents on-screen logos for companies that only exist within popular media.
The media that features the fictitious logo must be notable, non-notable references shall be removed.

Buy N Large (from WALL-E)

Background

Buy N Large is a megacorporation formed from Buy Yogurt's acquisition of Large Industries.

Logo (June 27, 2008)


Logo: On a black background, white outlines of the words "BNL" (with the word "N" being significantly smaller), along with a red oval and a smaller blue circle form. The words are then filled in and zoom out, with the filled in red oval and blue circle following suit. The formed logo is the words "BL" on a red sideways oval, with an "N" in a blue circle in between the words.

Technique: 2D computer animation.

Audio: A choir singing "BNL!"

Availability: Seen at the very end of WALL-E after the Pixar Animation Studios logo variant.

Background

Chalmskinn Productions is a film production company founded by Principal Seymour Skinner and Superintendent Gary Chalmers.

1st Logo (May 4, 2008)


Visuals: On top of a mountain, similar to the 1986 Paramount Pictures logo, we see a white sphere with the heads of Principal Skinner and Superintendent Chalmers spinning. Below it is the word "chalmskinn", with the word "productions" below it.

Technique: Digital ink and paint.

Audio: Two brass notes, followed by a seven-note guitar tune (similar to the DreamWorks Pictures theme) and a voice whispering "Chalmskinn".

Availability: Appeared on the Season 26 The Simpsons episodes, "Blazed and Confused" and "Mathlete's Feet".

Christian Broadcasting Channel (from South Park)

Logo (November 17, 1999)

Visuals: On a white background and on top of a pair of cyan angel wings with a golden halo above them, we see the golden letters "C", "B", and "C" zoom into place from the center of the wings symbol. The channel name "CHRISTIAN BROADCASTING CHANNEL", stacked and in black, fades in underneath the letters.

Visuals: On a black background, we see a dark blue "G" rotated 90 degrees to the left and with a white center piece zoom in at us until the white piece covers the screen. The company's logo, which is "GARALINA", in dark blue, reading vertically and sideways and with the "G" having a parabolic-shaped extension on its left side, pops into existence and remains on-screen until we fade to white.

Variant: Sometimes, the logo is at a different angle.

Technique: CGI.

Audio: Starts with a quiet drone that slightly increases in volume before a high-pitched hit plays and the drone becomes dual-toned.

Technique: 2D animation.

Audio: A seven-note melody played using a mix of a flute and xylophone overlays a two-chord progression played by a small chamber group of strings.

George's hand slightly moves around at the end of the logo in an attempt to immerse the viewer before lifting the paper up, transitioning to the beginning of the movie.

Technique: What appears to be live-action from the two boys.
