Background

Echo Lake Entertainment (formerly Echo Lake Productions; also referred to as Blue Lake Media Fund for some in-credit notices) was founded by 1997 by Doug Mankoff, Andrew Spaulding, and Brittany Kahan Ward. The company is located in Beverly Hills, California. Prior to producing American projects, they were involved in foreign-language films and used in-credit notices. Echo Lake did not use a on-screen logo until 2009.

1st Logo (January 16-November 14, 2003)

Logo: An in-credit logo. Scrolling up with the credits on the film, we see a circle with a cut-out silhouette of a white tree, with a teal-mint color reflecting on it, which somewhat appears to be a river. Underneath the circle is "ECHO LAKE PRODUCTIONS" spaced out in white.

Variant: On The Big Empty, the text is bigger and stacked.

FX/SFX: Just the scrolling of the credits.

Music/Sounds: Depends on the film.

Availability: Seen on Levity and The Big Empty.

Editor's Note: None.

2nd Logo (September 13, 2009-April 18, 2013)

Logo: We zoom out of a ocean as it's revealed to be reflecting off a silhouetted tree below it, that has a white flash behind it as it dies down into a sunset background. As it continues zooming out into its position, the white text "ECHO LAKE ENTERTAINMENT", in the same font from the last logo, ripples and fades in below the tree as it glows while the sunset moves. Then the picture turns into a blue color as it slowly fades into a black background, leaving just the name glowing. Then it fades out.

Variants:

  • An still in-credit notice version exists where it has the "ECHO LAKE" stacked in a white box with "ENTERTAINMENT" below it. The same is used for Blue Lake Media Fund, although they are replaced with "BLUE LAKE" and "MEDIA FUND", in a teal box respectively.
  • On The Numbers Station, the logo is shortened and fades out just as the picture starts fading.

FX/SFX: The zooming out, the name glowing, and the picture fading. Nice CGI. None for the in-credit notices.

Music/Sounds: A calm, rising synth note which is held throughout. Sometimes it uses the opening theme of the movie or silence.

Availability: Seen on The Joneses, The Ward, Romeo & Juliet, and The Numbers Station.

Editor's Note: None. It's a calm and relaxing logo.

3rd Logo (July 31, 2016-)

Logo: We start off on a blue water background, as a leaf flies in and lands onto it, creating ripples. Then we move back at an angle as the leaf blurs out while a silhouetted tree tinted in blue, fades and draws in, creating more ripples in the process. As that happens, the large text "ECHO LAKE" appears to the right, drawing in from different positions, while "ENTERTAINMENT" fades in, aligned to the right underneath "LAKE". A bright light briefly flashes from the far left as it darkens down and we see the finished product for a few seconds, before fading out.

Variants:

  • For the print logo, the tree appears silhouetted with the company name next to it.
  • On Van Helsing, the logo is still.
  • Starting with All the Bright Places, the leaf is now red.
  • On The Great, the print logo is used on a black background and is next to the Thruline Entertainment logo.

FX/SFX: The leaf dropping, the ripples, the logo forming. Nice animation from Filmograph. None for the variants.

Music/Sounds: A calm guitar tune which slowly builds up in the first few seconds, followed by a soft synth note in the last half. Sometimes, it uses the opening/closing theme of the movie/show or silence.

Availability: First seen on the TV series Van Helsing. The animated version debuted on The Man with the Iron Heart and was later seen on All the Bright Places and The Secrets We Keep. It also appears on the TV series The Great, albeit in print. Does not appear on Oxygen.

Editor's Note: Even though the atmosphere is not as good in comparison to the last logo, it's still a nice logo overall.
