Background
Based in Madrid and established around 1981, Araba Films was a production and distribution company from Spain. Their most remarkable production was Roman Polanski's The Ninth Gate (co-produced with Canal+ and other European companies). Other than that, it distributed films from small production companies. In 2007, American film company Media 8 Entertainment acquired Araba Films, along with fellow distributor Lauren Films[1]; the two companies subsequently stopped producing and distributing films, and instead focused on their cinema theater businesses until they became dormant in the mid-2010s.

.png)
Visuals: On a sky blue background, the elements of the logo symbol fade in individually, a grass field, a conker tree and four colored arcs of the rainbow, followed by the four segmented lines and "ARABA FILMS" in yellow. "presenta" fades in underneath.
Technique: Cel animation.
Audio: The beginning sample of "Curious Electric" by Jon and Vangelis.
Availability: Spotted on a few foreign titles, such as Bajo la aurora boreal and Welcome Home, Roxy Carmichael. It might have been included on Spanish films as well.
2nd Logo (Mid 1990s-2007)
Visuals: On a white background, a pencil drawing of a grass field fades in and starts shrinking and moving (in delayed motion) towards the center of the screen, revealing what seems to be a drawing of a conker tree. A rainbow draws itself behind the tree and the whole set fades to the print logo. The words "ARABA FILMS" fade in below with segmented lines. Then "presenta" in a script font fades in below.
Technique: Cel animation.
Audio: The start of Tchaikovsky's "June: Barcarolle" from "The Seasons, Op. 37a" is heard.
Availability: Seen on Spanish films from the time period. Also appeared on a handful of foreign titles such as My Family (1995).
