(December 15, 1989-December 17, 2008)
The Zanuck Company (1989)

Nicknames: "Red Z", "Z for Zanuck"

Logo: On a gradually zooming black background, a Z is drawn stroke by stroke. During the drawing of the last stroke, the letters "THE ZANUCK COMPANY" fade in one by one.

Variant: At the end of Yes Man, the logo is still.

FX/SFX: The drawing and letters fading in. 2D animation.

Music/Sounds: A whoosh followed by a synth chord ending with some bells. None for the still version.

Availability: Very rare. The Zanuck Company doesn't use a logo for most of its releases, but this is known to appear on Driving Miss Daisy, Rush, and Mulholland Falls, among a few others.

Editor's Note: None.
