Background
Distant Horizon is a production company based in South Africa, with additional offices in London and Los Angeles. It's a subsidiary of Videovision Entertainment.
1st Logo (March 1, 1991)
Visuals: On a moving starry background, a small spark appears and a lilac line draws itself in. It zooms back as a pyramid made up of filmstrips wipes in, with the ruby text "DISTANT HORIZON" coming along with it. The text shines.
Technique: CGI.
Audio: None.
Availability: Appeared on American Kickboxer.
2nd Logo (December 3, 1993-January 4, 1999)
Visuals: The screen pans across the company name, as the top portion of the background becomes a dark blue color. The panning stops and the text zooms forward on a now visible filmstrip field, panning upwards as the filmstrips break. The horizon converts into the topmost line and the remaining filmstrips shape into the pyramid as the text situates itself beneath the logo, becoming white.
Technique: CGI.
Audio: None.
Availability: Appeared on There's a Zulu On My Stoep, Face, Cry the Beloved Country, and Bravo Two Zero.
3rd Logo (September 11, 1998-)
Visuals: On a black background, there is the white text "DISTANT HORIZON" beneath a small screen containing the ocean and a blue skyline. A ray of light moves across the scenery and the edges to the filmstrip motif from the previous logo rotate in. The remaining portions fade in as the background around it fades out. The filmstrip becomes 2D.
Variants:
- Sometimes, the topmost line from the previous logo is present.
- On Wulin Warriors, the logo shares the screen with those for Goodtimes Entertainment, Broadway Video and Pili International Multimedia. It's on the top right corner.
Technique: CGI.
Audio: An African tribal tune. More often it plays in silence.
Availability: Seen on films from the period such as The Theory of Flight (first movie with this logo), The Dish, Twin Dragons, and Mandela: Long Walk to Freedom.
