1st logo (1960s-1970s)
Logo: We see a model of the Great Wall of China standing over a dark cumulonimbus cloud background with fog, similar to the Warner Bros. Pictures 1934-1937 logo. The structure has "長城" in a blocky Chinese font, written backwards, which is made of bronze. On the bottom row is the words "電影製片有限公司" written backwards in a 50s Chinese font. In the cloud with fog, there are searchlights moving, similar to the 20th Century Studios logo.

Technique: Traditional animation.

Music/Sounds: A bombastic fanfare.

Availability: Rare. Some films produced by Great Wall in the 50s-60s were lost according to HKFA archives. It can notably be seen on The Golden Beauty (1959).

2nd logo (1970s)
Logo: Same as the first logo, but this time, there are no searchlights, and the logo is in color, with "長城" in gold, and "電影製片有限公司" in orange. This logo is set on a stormy sky background.

Technique: None.

Music/Sounds: Same as before.

Availability: Rare.

3rd logo (1970s-1980s)
Logo: We see the Great Wall of China standing on an evening sky background, resembling the 1st and 2nd logos, though fireworks are behind it instead of searchlights. On the top, "長城" appears in gold-yellow, with "電影製片有限公司" below it. The logo fades to black at the end.

Technique: Live-action footage for the fireworks.

Music/Sounds: Same as before.
