Background: TBA

1st Logo (1950's?-19??)

Nicknames: "The Columbia-Paramount Ripoff", "Paralumbia Pictures", "Columbaramount Pictures"

Logo: On a gray background (if you see closely there's a light over it), we see the text in chinese with the two characters (which display "Union"), being more bigger than the other 6 characters (the text is on a possibly rock-like font), standing on two pedestals stacked at the same time. A handful of stars (possibly 21) are seen on the upper side of the screen.

FX/SFX: This is a still logo, nothing special about it. But there's a ripoff of Paramount Pictures and the pedestal looks like Columbia Pictures.

Music/Sounds: A patriotic trumpet fanfare which repeats twice, accompanied with a drumroll, and a descending strum of a violin, followed by the same patriotic trumpet fanfare.

Availability: Seen on their films of the time, but it's extremely rare.

2nd logo (195?-19??)

Nicknames: "The Paramount-Fox-Constantin Ripoff", "20th Century Parastantin"

Logo: We see the same text and 21 stars from before, only that they're on a dark evening background with some clouds, which are barely seen. A searchlight is turned on in the left side of the bottom of the screen. The other searchlight, which is on the right side then turns on too. They start moving up and down (a la 20th Century Fox) with the text revealing it's shadows everytime they move. We then fade to black.

FX/SFX: None, unless you count the searchlights and fades.

Music/Sounds: A bombastic and at the same time soft fanfare which consists of only one note (a la Constantin Films), which sounds more patriotic than average.

Availability: Same as the last logo.

3rd Logo (1974-19??)

Logo: On a black rock-like paperboard background, we see a circle with a line superimposing it's borders. On the circle, we sse an lissajous atom-like figure (a la Australian Broadcasting Commision 3rd Logo), which is gold and has brown shadings either top or bottom. Below the lines, we see the text on chinese (which is mostly edited compared to the other two logos), and the translation in english:

A UNION

FILM

PRODUCTION

With all the texts on beige.

FX/SFX: Same as the first logo.

Music/Sounds: A 20th Century Fox-esque drumbeat, followed by a loud, overly bombastic and at the same time triumphant fanfare with the last note being held. (This was also used as Producciones Sotomayor's 3rd logo fanfare.)

Availability: Rare, seen on their movies of the time. One example is Blood Revenge.
