Mirage Enterprises

Background

This is the production company of Sydney Pollack.

Note: Not to be confused with the American comic book company Mirage Studios.

1st Logo (1992?-1995)

Logo: On a black background, we see a filmstrip superimposed with a big lowercase "M" coloured grey. Under it, the words "MIRAGE ENTERPRISES" appear.

FX/SFX: None.

Music/Sounds: None.

Availability: TBA.

Editor's Note: None.

2nd Logo (1995-2000s)

Nickname: "Folding Mirage"

Logo: We see a live action shot of clouds moving. After a few seconds it begins to fold, like a piece of paper, into a paper plane, against either a white or a gradient blue background. The word "MIRAGE" then slides in from below. Reflections of the letters can be seen as the word slides into place.

Variant: On The Reader, the logo is black and white.

FX/SFX: Moving clouds, landscape folding into paper, the word rising up, the shine.

Music/Sounds: None or a soft organ theme.

Availability: Uncommon. Seen on Sliding Doors, The Reader, The Quiet American, and Blow Dry, among others. Might also be on Catch a Fire and Michael Clayton.

Editor's Note: None.
