PNR Pictures

1st Logo (October 15, 1982)


Logo: On a green sunburst background, we see the yellow text "PNR" in a fancy font & the red text "Pictures" below it zoom in & get in the center.

Technique: The fading and the zoom out.

Music/Sounds: A 4-note trumpet fanfare. The last two notes are held.

Availability: Seen on Billa Ranga.

2nd Logo (January 1, 1984-February 21, 1986)


Logo: On a black background with curved lines, we see the letters "P", "N", & "R" appear randomly, in purple & yellow. Then they appear one-by-one flashing purple, yellow, & red as we cut to a moving light background. Then, "PNR" & "Pictures" appear one-by-one twice before stopping & flashing various colors.

Variant: There's a short/abridged variant. It's also brownish.

Technique: The flashing letters on top of a science fiction-esque background, which is actually stolen from the 1977 movie Demon Seed.

Music/Sounds: A majestic trumpet fanfare, as well as a few gunshots and a bit of a synthesized compose at the beginning.

Availability: Seen on Sattathai Thiruthangal and Kutra.

Legacy: This logo might scare some people due to the flashing letters and bizarre CGI-ish background, but those who have watched Demon Seed would notice that background is being stolen from the film.
