Copperheart Entertainment

Background
Copperheart Entertainment is a Toronto-based film and television production company established by producer Steven Hoban. The company also runs an animation division.

(June 8, 2009-)
Logo: On a black background, the screen fades into a dark golden minecave where a silhouette of a guy is shown digging up copper nearby, as the camera pulls back to reveal many mechanics and gears surrounding the area. It's then revealed to be that we were inside a heart-shaped vault tinted in, as a golden light flickers on the front as it pulls back onto a black background. As it does so, the text

COPPERHEART ENTERTAINMENT

rotates in from the right as it flickers; with the logo done in an Art Deco style similar to that of the Lucasfilm Ltd. logo. There are symbols resembling that of French curves between "COPPERHEART", which is arched and has the Canadian maple leaf in at the very top. Once the logo settles into its position, the flickering and heart-shaped vault fade out and we see the full view of the logo as it shines.

Variants:
 * For the company's animation division, the logo is brighter and in warp-speed, and "ANIMATION" replaces "ENTERTAINMENT".
 * Sometimes, the logo is shown still or in-credit.
 * On Splice, the logo is shown on a DNA graphic background.
 * On A Christmas Horror Story, once the animation completes, the logo turns as it rotates and starts to snow, transitioning to the opening sequence.
 * At the end of In the Tall Grass, the logo is much smaller than usual.
 * On Come True, the logo is small, tinted in and appears static shocked.

FX/SFX: The minecave and vault pulling back, the rotation and flickering of the text. Excellent CGI.

Music/Sounds: Mechanical and gear sounds throughout, alongside the sounds of copper briefly being dug up at the start. A film projector running sound is heard when the text rotates and flickers, but stops after it is shown in its full view. Music/Sounds Variants:
 * Sometimes, the opening/closing theme of the movie/show plays over it or none.
 * The animation division has just the digging sound and a sound that's similar to a door slamming when the logo appears.

Availability: Seen on movies and shows produced by the company such as Splice, 388 Arletta Avenue, Haunter, Wolves, Debug, A Christmas Horror Story, and In the Tall Grass; as well as the Canadian horror miniseries Darknet. The animation version can be found on the 2009 short The Spine.

Editor's Note: None.
