1st Logo (March 22, 1961-1967?)

Logo: We see rays of light from the sun flashing over a wetland with rocks, including a giant one. The view of the rocks become brighter until they can clearly be seen. We then see the text "光嶺" zoom towards us and settle at the bottom of the screen.

Technique: A combination of live-action and cel animation.

Audio: It depends on the fanfare it uses:

  • A sixteen-note bombastic fanfare accompanied by drumroll sounds, followed by a cymbal crash.
  • A fourteen-note dramatic tune. The last note is held the longest, and is accompanied by fourteen drum notes.
  • We start off with a drumroll fanfare. It is then followed by a thirty-note triumphant fanfare. The last note is held the longest, and is accompanied by drumroll sounds.
  • A thirty-three note bombastic fanfare.

Availability: Its earliest known appearance was on Forsaken Daughter. It later appeared on films from the time, such as Young Girl in Love, The Mysterious Murderer, One Murder, Five Deaths, The Elusive Golden Butterfly, Strange Romance on a Bus, and Sadly Bidding My Hometown Farewell.

2nd Logo (May 24, 1961)

Logo: We see the stacked text "嶺光影業公司 復業週年紀念品" on a gray background along with the logo at the right: An illustration of a mountain inside a pill-like shape, with the "光嶺" text and four more Chinese characters under it.

Technique: None.

Audio: The opening theme of the film.

Availability: Only appeared on Woman's Affairs.

3rd Logo (June 21, 1968)

Logo: We see a yellow-tinted illustration of three mountains on a land in the background. The "光嶺" text is present at the center of the screen, spaced between the texts "LANKWONG" and "SCOPE", and above four Chinese characters. In the background, we see multiple lights shoot towards different sides of the screen.
