Analysis Logo - Paramount



The Paramount logo is very iconic as Paramount is a very large company in the film business. Denotation of this logo is simple a large mountain above cloud level with the name Paramount perched on the peak all inside a circle of stars. This is very open and is not linked with one theme or genre in the film business as it isn’t “scary” or based on fantasy etc. The large mountain could connote the paramount is bigger higher and ultimately better than all the other companies out there. The natural lighting look gives the logo a realistic feel. 

The orchestral music commonly associated with the animation really gives it that “epic” almighty feel. The animation of the logo changes depending on how long they want to make it the full fledge logo shows the stars of paramount crossing over a lake and then up the mountain to which they then arc round and then this is when we see the name of the company.

Paramount have not really got much variation in there logo sometimes no music is present if the film is more sinister or serious however they do not tend to change the logos basics. However they do release special logos every anniversary the most up to date version being the 100th one of the more significant milestones a company can have
