Draft:AMC Theatres: Difference between revisions

'''Nickname:''' "Hollywood Triumphance"

'''Logo:''' On a black background, a blue/yellow flash appears. 10 saturated black and white photographs of celebrities, popular in the New Hollywood era, zoom in on a blue circle outline while a white shine is revolving around the circle. After the last one (Charlie Chaplin) appears, the circle turns sideways revealing an outline of a projector. The shine starts to eliminate the outline and creates a red "A" in its signature design. A filmstrip comes from the bottom and goes next to the "A" forming the outline of the "M". the filmstrip gets removed and makes the "M" red. The same happens for the "C" except it comes from the top of the screen. Several white curved-edged rectangles zoom in around AMC and centers the logo. Stars appear on the bottom forming "THEATRES". A bright light appears on the "A" and "C". "Our Feature Presentation" fades in one by one with the music. That text is also blue. A bright light fades on the "A" and shines along with the "M" and "C". The logo fades to black.

'''FX/SFX:''' Light flashes, photographs zoom in and a projector rotates, sparks form the AMC logo. Awesome animation. This logo was designed by Cinema Concepts and animated by Barbara Garner, with footage from the Cascom Select Effects Library.

'''Music/Sounds:''' An abridged excerpt of the orchestral tune "Olympic Champion 1" by Keith Mansfield, 1978.

 

'''Editor's Note:''' It's not as advanced as the next logos, but this is still a nice logo and a favorite of those who went to AMC cinemas at this time.
