MTV Films: Difference between revisions

===1st Logo (1996)===

'''Logo:''' On a black background, we see a small MTV logo on the left and the word "'''PRODUCTIONS'''" on the right.

===2nd Logo (July 26, 1996)===

'''Logo:''' On a black background, we see the MTV logo (with "MUSIC TELEVISION" underneath), with animated static inside the "'''M'''". When the static disappears, the "'''M'''" in the logo turns white.

===3rd Logo (December 20, 1996-August 27, 2004, October 18, 2019)===

'''Logo:''' We fade into space as we see an astronaut floating around from right to left. The astronaut suddenly comes close to the camera, and we see that the MTV logo is reflected backwards onto his helmet. We zoom into the reflection and out again to reveal the MTV logo (with "MUSIC TELEVISION" intact under it) with the word "'''PRODUCTIONS'''" below it.

'''Variants:'''

*On home media prints of ''Orange County'', the part where the astronaut comes close to the camera is removed.

*This logo was briefly revived for ''Eli''; here, the logo reflected onto the astronaut's helmet is the post-2010 MTV logo next to the text "'''Films'''", all in white. The logo zooms out with a fisheye-esque effect.

'''Music/Sounds Variant:''' On ''Jackass: The Movie'', we hear breathing followed by a laugh provided by Chris Pontius.

===4th Logo (January 12, 2002)===

===5th Logo (January 14, 2005-October 23, 2009)===

'''Logo:''' We see an overhead view of Earth, which turns out to be a reflection on the helmet of an astronaut. The astronaut is sitting in a movie theater along with many others, as popcorn flies around in zero-gravity. We then zoom out of a hole in the shape of the MTV logo (with "MUSIC TELEVISION" intact underneath) as "'''FILMS'''" in spaced-out letters zooms in underneath it.

'''Variants:'''  

*There is a prototype version of the logo where it has a slower zoom-out, the astronauts are in different positions and are all wearing white spacesuits. The word "'''FILMS'''" appears letter-by-letter.

'''Technique:''' CGI.

'''Music/Sounds:''' The opening theme of the movie.

*On ''Jackass Number Two'', we can hear the astronauts laughing and chuckling (provided by Steve-O and Chris Pontius), then a metal slam.

'''Availability:''' No longer current, but still very common. Can be seen on movies starting with ''Coach Carter'' and ending with ''Dance Flick''. The prototype variant was only used as a test logo, and was not seen on any movie.

'''Availability:''' It was seen on ''All You've Got'', ''Save the Last Dance 2'' and ''Super Sweet 16: The Movie''.

'''Logo:''' We see the electronic components, surrounded by blue lights, which then zooms out to the MTV logo, placed inside the circle. The name "MTV FILMS EUROPE" appears below the circle.

===8th Logo (December 26, 2007)===

'''Logo:''' On a white background, we see the MTV logo (with "MUSIC TELEVISION" intact underneath).

===9th Logo (October 15, 2010-June 15, 2014, February 4, 2022)===

===10th Logo (July 31, 2013, January 30, 2015)===

{{YouTube|id=T944kE-ydxE|id2=1NipjE2sEyo}}{{guidance detail|reason=flashing}}

'''Logo:''' We see several flashing shots of multicultural and multicolored eyes. When we get to the last shot, we zoom in onto the iris and several flashing lights are seen before the MTV logo slides up on a box with the word "'''Films'''" in it. A live-action shot of a cheering audience, possibly taken from an EDM concert, is superimposed inside the logo. After that we cut into the eyes closing.

'''Technique:''' CGI.

'''Music/Sounds Variants:'''

'''Availability:''' Seen only on the ''Jackass Presents: Bad Grandpa'' trailer and ''Project Almanac''. The normal variant is unused and it's seen only online.
