For our ident we got inspiration from the company paramount with the use of mountains. Our logo is a very simplistic and modern design, with not much colour used. We have used a shiny grey colour for the text and logo which can relate to a knives metal blade hence helping it to ‘secretly’ link to the thriller genre.
Our name links to our logo of mountains linking to Mount. Everest. We wanted a name that was unique and not just all 4 of our names combined together.
When designing our logo I made sure the image we used wasn’t copyrighted by putting a filter on the google image search engine (As seen below).
These are the different stages of our ident we created using Photoshop. As you can see our very first design our name was called mountain range. We decide to change this simply because we weren’t 100% sure about it and so we asked friends and the public which one they preferred more, Eververse or Mountain Range (the majority said Eververse).
We went through some colour changes too, from blue to red finally to silver. I originally went for the colour light blue simply because i liked the colour, however now looking back at it I feel it doesn’t look professional enough. We then went to the red colour to link with our thriller genre and sub genres, although we then again thought it didn’t look quite professional.
What changed dramatically in the first two designs were the fonts. Found on Dafont.com, we tried to find a fancy design first to imitate Paramount's typography however we felt this didn't look good and we were relying too much on paramount’s ideas and so needed to change it. We then came to the conclusion that the title needed to be bolder and in capitals. The second design is all about linking to the thriller genre as much as possible and so we went with a more horror font, we still didn’t think this look professional enough for what we were trying to achieve.
The third design and on wards we finally found a bold font we liked that allowed it to look professional, neat and tidy.
A production company’s main role is to help create a film by giving financial support, helping with scheduling, scripting, casting and more. They help to see the film through from an idea to a final piece. The production company however are also in control of anything that goes wrong too, like property damage or actors being hurt.
