Background

The National Film Department of Malaysia (Malay: Filem Negara Malaysia) was a Malaysian state-owned film organization, with its headquarters located in Petaling Jaya, Selangor. It was founded on April 1, 1946 as the country's first film studio.

On May 31, 2013, the company was merged with the National Film Development Corporation Malaysia to form a sole film agency.

1st Logo (Late 1963-January 21, 2002)

Visuals:

1963-1990: Same as the 1953 B&W Malayan Film Unit logo, however, the background is almost completely black, and the text is replaced with the stacked text "FILEM NEGARA MALAYSIA" in a Serif font with "MEMPERSEMBAHKAN" under it.
1972-January 21, 2002: A different illustration of the Malayan tiger is against a blue or turquoise background. The picture then fades to reveal the stacked company name in yellow and in a different font. The text "MALAYSIA" is also not enlarged. Under the company name reads "Mempersembahkan" in a cursive font. Depending on the film, the "M" may be stylized in two different writing styles, or it might be lowercase instead.

Closing Variants:

On Pua Kumbu, the tiger is above "PENERBITAN", which is above the company name in the same yellow color.
On Bangau Oh Bangau, the tiger is above text in white reading "PENERBITAN FILEM NEGARA}".

Other Variants:

On Berlindung Di Malaysia, the text is against the background seen in the 1953 Malayan Film Unit logo, and has white outlines.
On Keajaiban Tabii, the tiger is colorized, along with the background, which is colored periwinkle. The text is also colorized in yellow.
On Dalam Kenangan: Tunku Abdul Rahman, a different design of the tiger is shown on the background seen in the 1953 Malayan Film Unit logo. The picture doesn't fade to the company's name.

Audio:

1963-1990: Same as the Malayan Film Unit logo.
1972-January 21, 2002: A twenty-three-note bombastic trumpet fanfare, followed by three held notes.
