Searchlight Pictures: Difference between revisions

'''Availability:''' Only seen after the 1994 20th Century Fox logo on the trailer for ''The Brothers McMullen''. This was a custom variation made for the trailer, as FSP did not have a standalone logo yet. However, the film itself uses the third logo instead.

'''Availability:''' Rare. This was a placeholder for the next logo.

It was only seen on four films which are ''Girl 6'', ''She's the One'', ''Looking for Richard'', and ''The Secret Agent''.  

* Current prints of the latter two films have the next logo or the 1994 20th Century Fox logo plastering it, though it survives on the first title with the 1994 logo preceding it, and also remains on the second title without any changes whatsoever.  

* Also seen on trailers for very early releases from the company.

* On some films, the News Corporation byline is slightly smaller. This is primarily used for films with a wider aspect ratio, but on some movies, such as ''Slums of Beverly Hills'' and ''Boys Don't Cry'', it is used on the regular 16:9 version of the logo, while some wider films, such as ''Titus'' and ''Slumdog Millionaire'', use the regular byline instead.

** There is also a looser cropped version.

* An official bylineless version exists, but it was used solely for corporate purposes, and as such did not appear on any film.

* Starting in 1999, the 1997 Fox fanfare, composed by David Newman, was used.

* On some films like ''28 Days Later'' and ''Day Watch'', there is a low-pitched version of the fanfare.

* On ''I Heart Huckabees'' and ''The Ringer'', after the light covers the screen, the opening voiceover begins.

* This logo is based on the 2009-2020 TCF logo.

* If one looks closely at the cityscape during the beginning of the logo, the same ''Ice Age'' billboard from the 2009-2020 20th Century Fox logo can be seen.

* March 18, 2011-July 5, 2013: "{{Font|Serif|'''A NEWS CORPORATION COMPANY'''}}"

* September 18, 2013-December 16, 2019: Bylineless

* There are variants where the structure is seen in an extreme close-up (ala cropped from scope into 1.78:1) or shown at a far distance in the entire 16:9 frame.

* There is a 4:3 variant seen on some TV spots as well as fullscreen prints of many films from 2012 onward, starting with ''Sound of My Voice''.

* Starting with the release of ''Enough Said'' on September 18, 2013, the News Corporation byline is excluded and the logo is bylineless for the first time since the 1995 logo. This is mainly due to the split of News Corporation on June 28, 2013.

* There is a rare 20th Anniversary variant, where "20TH ANNIVERSARY" is engraved under "PICTURES". There is no full version of this variant, nor did it appear on any films.

* In 2019, the company celebrated its 25th anniversary. After the screen is filled with light, it fades to a {{color|darkgray|dark grey}} background with a {{color|silver}} rectangle. The object has a large "25" on the left with "YEARS" inside the 5 in the first quarter on the left, and in the other three quarters is the print logo, minus the searchlights. Although this appeared on trailers for ''Antlers'', the next logo appeared on the film itself.

* First seen on the trailers for ''The Tree of Life'' on December 16, 2010, ''Cedar Rapids'' just two months later (the film itself used the previous logo), and on later trailers for ''Win Win'', which was also the first film with this logo.

* The last film to use this logo with the News Corporation byline was ''The Way Way Back''.  

* The last feature film to use this logo with the "Fox Searchlight Pictures" name was ''A Hidden Life'', and the last short film released under the name was ''Sew Torn''.

* The 20th Anniversary variant is unused and was only seen on a video to promote said anniversary.
