Background
Renown Pictures Corporation is a British distribution company formed in 1938 by film producer George Minter.
1st Logo (1940-1960)
Nickname: "The Angel Statue"
Logo: Against a cloudy sky background, we see a pedestal with three horses and an angel/goddess with her wings spread out (actually the Greek goddess Nike). Written on the pedestal is...
PICTURES CORPORATION LTD.
The company name is unnecessarily superimposed on the screen.
Variants:
- There is actually a version where we actually see the pedestal in its entirety, at least for a few seconds, then the company name appears onscreen, each word fading in one-by-one, followed by the word "PRESENT".
- This logo was colorized by Four Star International around the mid '80s. It now has a brownish hue to it.
FX/SFX: None.
Music/Sounds: None.
Availability: Was seen on Scrooge: A Christmas Carol.
Editor's Note: None.
2nd Logo (2009-)
Nickname: "The Angel Statue II"
Logo: On a black background with a spotlight revealing a lavender ground, we see the 3D words "RENOWN PICTURES", with both words being far away from each other. The camera pans to the center of the words. A brief flash occurs, causing the background to turn into a lavender/white background. The statue from the last logo is seen in the middle of the words. The logo now reads:
A
RENOWN PICTURES
PRESENTATION
DIGITALLY REMASTERED © RENOWN PRODUCTIONS [YEAR]
Later, the words on the logo turn gold.
Variant: A black-and-white variant exists.
FX/SFX: CGI animation.
Music/Sounds: A bombastic fanfare, ending with a held choir note (a la the 1st Gameloft logo). It concludes with a short harp crescendo.
Availability: Current.
- It can be seen on shows and movies distributed by them. It is currently seen on Talking Pictures TV reruns of their library.
- The B&W variant was surprisingly seen on a 2020 Sony Movies Christmas airing of Home for Christmas, which was colorized.
- It can also be seen on their dormant YouTube channel, where the logo is squished to widescreen.
