1. MOVIEPRODUCTION
LOGOANALYSIS
I am going to be analysing three horror production
logos to see what codes and conventions we need to
follow and also to look at what styles and colours they
use

2. This is the production logo for
Ghost House Pictures from first
looking at this we can instantly tell
this production produces horror
films as the name ghost house
already sounds rather spooky and
eerie also the skull in the
background links in with death
fear which are the themes that
usually run within horror genres
This production logo from looking at
it also tells us that its for the horror
genre as the use of the word
‘Twisted’ connotes madness and
psychotic behavior which usually
runs within the horror genre also
the thorns intertwined within the
letters links with pain and torture it
also gives it a gritty and dark feel
which also runs with in the horror
genre lastly the colour of the font
fades from white to black which
also could connote darkness taking
over
Lionsgate is a very popular
production company who
produce many different genres
but when doing horror films they
change production logo into a
more dark and sinister theme
they clouds are red with tints of
black which connotes fear anger
and danger also the font has a
rusty effect which makes it more
gritty which links with the codes
and convention in horror

3. This is the first logo draft
I created on photo-shop I
chose to us a knife as I
connotes murder and a
reference to the Horror
/Slasher genre I also
added a shadow of the
house behind to add that
whole spooky element.
This is second logo draft I created
this time I made a few minor
adjustments instead of a knife I
used an axe with a crack effect I
felt this had more of an impact I
also made the show of the house
bigger and added slash marks on
the logo name I felt that this
works better with the codes and
conventions of a Slasher genre.
This is the final draft of
my film logo this time I
removed the shadow and
made the background
back me and the group
felt that this was the best
out of the three as the
black worked well against
the red and had more of
a darker feel to it.
