===Background===

Panasia Films (泛亞影業) was founded in 1972 by Andrew G. Vajna. It was acquired by Golden Harvest in 1976, since then being the foreign film distribution arm of the latter. After selling Panasia, Vajna and Mario Kassar formed Carolco which, in less than four years, became one of the top three foreign sales organizations in motion pictures. Subsequently after Carolco, Vajna formed Cinergi and later C2 Pictures, of the ''Terminator'' fame.

'''Nicknames:''' "The Swirly Bird", "Panasia Bird"

'''Logo:''' On a black background with a blue glow on the top, we see a drawing of a blue bird (drawn abstractly in a 'swirly' way) along with "panasia" (in an abstract font) fading in over the glow. Then, red Chinese writing along with the company name and byline, "Panasia Films Limited (A Golden Harvest Entertainment Company)" fade in below.

 

'''Nicknames:''' "The Swirly Bird II", "Panasia Bird II"

'''Logo:''' Over a black background, we see a spark, enlightening the screen to reveal a glass version of the bird from before. The spark dissolves and the bird rotates to the other side, then zooming out slowly. It stops, and "panasia" fades in below. Then, Chinese characters fade in on the bottom of the screen (which soon changes to English; "Panasia Films Limited" with the Golden Harvest byline (from the previous logo) below). Light and glare move around various parts of the logo.

 

 

'''Logo:''' Essentially a combination of the 2002 Golden Harvest "Writing GH on Golden Plate" logo with Panasia's "Swirly Bird" logo. The logo itself is actually pretty much the same as the said Golden Harvest logo, but instead of the writing GH and the plate fading, it was the "Swirly Bird" emblem in gold fading along with "panasia" (same font as before) on the right of the bird (arched). The Chinese characters were different also and "Golden Harvest" is replaced with "Panasia Films Limited".

 

 

'''Logo:''' Same as the current Orange Sky Golden Harvest logo, but the company name is swapped to "Panasia Films Limited" for both the English and Chinese names.
