Background

The studio was formed in 1933 as Moscow Technical Films Factory to produce educational and documentary films. It was renamed several times - Mosnauchfilm in 1945 and Tsentrnauchfilm in 1967. The studio created the first Soviet widescreen and stereophonic films and was a research facility for many cinematic technologies. Since 2003, it is known under the name of the Centre of National Film (CNF). In 2015, it was folded into the Gorky Film Studio.

Logo (2005-March 18, 2010)

Visuals: On the black background is some confetti flying. Then, the stylized man drawing. Then the background behind the man appears. The confetti slowly ends flying, forming words: "ЦНФ" in shape-styled font. Then, one line comes to "Ф" letter, making it look like the radar. The full name appears and some confetti lines are landing and swimming in the sea (on the BG behind the man). Then the boat is appearing with animated smoke. The logo disappears.

Trivia: This logo is based on the "Complex Presentiment: Half-Figure in a Yellow Shirt" painting from 1928-1932 by Kazimir Malevich, whose another painting, "Painterly Realism of a Peasant Woman in Two Dimensions", was used for Krasny Kvadrat's logo.

Technique: A mix of computer animation, CGI and cel animation (for the smoke).

Audio: Winding sound, followed by the rising-up note chime. Then, the winding sound continues until the end, with the boat sound in the background, when the smoke appearing from the boat.

Availability: It first appeared on the Про то, что было documentary film (from the Секретный кинематограф series consisting of 4 documentaries) and appeared on their productions of the period. The last movie to have this logo is Space Dogs (Белка и Стрелка: звёздные собаки), which was released under their CNF-Anima subsidiary.

-'''Logo:''' There is a sculpture of a torch-holding man standing on a pedestal under a blue sky background. The torch ends with a red star. Below is a name which originally reads:

-ордена красной звезды
-<br>
-К И Н О С Т У Д И Я
-<br>
-НАУЧНО-ПОПУЛЯРНЫХ
-<br>
-фильмов
-</center>
-The first word is stretched into an arc-shape. The name translates to "Moscow Red Star Order's Film Studio for Popular Scientific Films".
-'''Variants:''' In later years, the name had no arc-shape and the man stood by a slight angle. The background also varies.
-'''Technique:''' Just the fading-in.
-'''Music/Sounds:''' The opening theme of the film.
-'''Availability:''' Rare. Like next logos, this one can be found on the DVD/Blu-ray Disc collection of films released by the Centre of National Film.
