Background

In 2000, Behaviour Communications sold its film studio to Industry Entertainment, who renamed it to Seville Pictures. In 2007, E1 Entertainment took over the company and turned it into its French-Canadian unit. In 2008, Séville took over Christian Larouche's Christal Films, which filed for bankruptcy earlier that year. In 2014, an international division was launched, intended to distribute indie films. On October 31, 2022, the company's former president Patrick Roy bought the company's entire catalog from eOne, and Séville was renamed to Immina Films.



1st Logo (2000-2009)

Visuals: On a black background, there is a shadow writing out "SEVILLE" (in an Arial font, in white and spaced). Two orange half-rectangles are seen on the top and bottom with a line in the middle. The words "Les Films" fade in on the left side, and the words "Pictures" fade in on the right.

Variants:

  • A still version exists.
  • A short version exists.

Technique: 2D digital animation.

Audio: None or the opening theme.

Availability: Seen on any DVD or VHS release from Seville Pictures, as well as theatrical releases. The still variant can be found on the Platinum Disc DVD of Blind Fear.

2nd Logo (2009-2010)

Visuals: The sequence starts with the same animation as the first E1 Entertainment logo. However, the "E1" structure does not appear. After a few seconds, the logo animates like it would normally, but without the structure, and a white rectangle with light blue-green borders zooms out, with the letters "SEVILLE" zooming onto it as it appears. Then, the byline "une filiale de E1 Entertainment" appears below. The rays in the logo continue to move until it fades.

Variants:

  • A still version exists.
  • A short version exists.

Technique: CGI.

Audio: Same as the E1 Entertainment logo.

Availability: It was seen on French-Canadian movie releases, such as Spy(Ies) and The Legacy.

3rd Logo (2010-2015)


Visuals: Same as the 2010 eOne logo, but "e" and "one" are changed to "seville", and "entertainment" is replaced by the same byline as the previous logo. The byline appears when the logo is formed.

Variant: A variant exists to salute cinemas in Quebec, showing the Saint's mark and the text reads "Célébrons le cinéma Québécois" (French for "Let's Celebrate Quebec's Cinemas").

Technique: CGI by Parcel Design.

Audio: Same as the eOne logo.

Availability: Unknown. [Examples?]

4th Logo (2015-2022)


Visuals: The sequence starts similarly to the 2015 Entertainment One logo, with the shine reflected on a different letter. Then the letter zooms out revealing it is an "S". Then the letters of "Séville" (set in the eOne Code Pro font) zoom out and place themselves next to the "S". Then, a blue rounded square turns as it places itself on a black background, encasing the "Séville". It turns to the left revealing "Les Films". The byline appears after the logo forms.

Variants:

  • Short variants exist for both the English and French versions.
  • There is an international variant reading "Seville International" (without the accented e) and the byline translated to English: "an entertainment One company".
  • Another variant is the same as the previous logo's variant to salute cinemas in Quebec.
  • On the Canadian trailer for Big Giant Wave, the French print logo is used.

Technique: CGI by Steven Preisman.

Audio: Same as the Entertainment One logo.

Availability: The normal version is seen on King Dave and other Francophone Canadian films, as well as French dubs of titles produced by eOne Films. The international variant can be seen on the European release of Ma ma, among others.
