Seven Arts (fictional)/Logos

(Dedicated to James Moulton. R.I.P. Also, credit to Alejandro Garcia, Lamont Meeks (or whoever the fuck is currently running the SLN! account), and James Moulton.)

1990-1991
Seven Arts started in 1990, having a distribution deal with Judy Garland Pictures. This logo was either silent, or used the second half of the Judy Garland Pictures theme. The animation was sparks outlining and forming the stylized 7A logo.

1991-1992
The logo received a retooling after only 1 year, with the camera zooming out of the sparks forming the logo.

1992-1994
This logo animated with a box flying into faint dark blue clouds, and lasers forming the 7A logo on the box, which broke into pieces to form the logomark, which lit up, making the clouds disappear. Afterwards, the “SEVEN ARTS” text appeared letter-by-letter. This logo had its own musical theme.

1994-1997
In 1994, Seven Arts was acquired by International Family Entertainment (parent of Judy Garland Pictures at the time). This logo is almost the same as the 1992 logo, including the same music theme, but has bright pink clouds at the beginning, which turn blue during the logo animation, and also has an IFE or Shaw byline.

1997-2006
This logo was adopted after Seven Arts became its own distribution unit, instead of just a production label of MTM Films. It was made using the Identmation system. The music theme is a 12-note horn/trumpet fanfare, which is still used today.
