Background

Spentzos Film was a Greek film production company that was founded in January 3, 1949. From today, Spentzos Film was the one of the biggest Greek film companies of all time. And this company was still active.

1st (known) Logo (1949?-1987)

Logo: We see black background that suddenly fades into blue-cyan shadowish. Then, a black, big and flat hexagon appears, which turns into gray. Then, fading in gold lining and brown coloring, we see a drawing of an giant griffon holding an profecy on a paper which says the company's name on greek, with some filmstrips on a weird line scheme bordering both of it's sides, inside the flat hexagon. We then fade to black.

Variant: A black and white variant also exists.

Technique: Everything fading in.

Music/Sounds: A bombastic fanfare with flutes and drums, following by a crashing ending.

Availability: Common Bordering on Ultra common. Seen on some Greek films from 1949 to present of their time. Examples are Papadistiki Kompania and Oi Ftochodiavoloi. Papadistiki Kompania can be found on YouTube.


2nd Logo (1987-1990's?)

Logo: On a black background, the yellow bird and rolling paper flies like animation, then flashes and the rolling paper opens and drawing, and the text "ΣΠΕΝΤΖΟΣ ΦΙΛΜ" are writing in the paper, and the ribbon is also drawing, then inside the flat hexagon is zooming out.

Technique: Pretty much the things going on in the logo.

Music/Sounds: Drums and the bombastic synth.

Availability: Uncommon. Can be seen on some Greek movies like Patris, listeia, oikogeneia.
