Background
Spice Factory was a production company created by producers Michael Cowan and Jason Piette in 1996. The company specialized in producing independent films, along with some occasional major productions. In 2018, following a decade long dormancy after the release of their last film, the company closed after Cowan was brought down by investment fraud, and a prohibition order was placed, preventing him from serving as a lead operator of any company for 13 years, though in spite of this he is still active as a producer.
1st Logo (1999-2008)
Logo: On a black background, a thick white circular outline zooms out. Within the white portions we see images of what appears to be a filmstrip and other abstract shapes. More pieces zoom out and they form a rhombus, with the abstract shapes becoming visible and resembling the inside of a movie projector. The words "SPICE FACTORY" fade in below.
Variant: Early on, an in-credit version existed featuring the rhombus, but had the "SPICE FACTORY" text in a more stylized font, and a small "THE" above it.
FX/SFX: The zooming shapes.
Music/Sounds: A faint droning synth chord, with a muted reprise.
Music/Sounds/Variant: On at least one film, it uses two windy synth tunes, ending with a muted reverb.
Availability: Appeared on Jericho Mansions, The Last Sign, Guy X, and possibly on Undertaking Betty (aka Plots with a View). The early variant seen at the end of An Angel for May, and was possibly seen on New Blood and Mr In-Between as the early logo appeared on their trailers. This doesn’t appear on Merchant of Venice.
