The Rainbow Film Company

Background
The Rainbow Film Company (also known as Rainbow Releasing and formerly known as Rainbow Pictures and International Rainbow Pictures) is the film production company of American actor and filmmaker Henry Jaglom, the director of Last Summer in the Hamptons and Festival in Cannes. The company still exists today.

FX/SFX: None.

Music/Sounds: None.

Availability: Rare. Its only known appearance was on the end of Hearts and Minds. While the 2002 Criterion Collection DVD of said film preserve this logo, the 2014 home media release, on the other hand, has it replaced with a preservation text.

2nd Logo (December 15, 1976)
Logo: Superimposed into the end credits of the movie, the arced text "Helvetica" with a small shadow sticking out wipes in.

FX/SFX: The text wiping in.

1st Logo (April 4, 1980-October 9, 1992)
Logo: We see a man with a fixated stare on his face (actually Orson Welles). He holds a small yellow box in his left hand and a small cardboard rainbow in his right hand, which he pulls completely out of the box, as the camera zooms in. When the camera gets close enough, it freezes, and the words "AN INTERNATIONAL RAINBOW PICTURE" in an arc wipe in and "A JAGFILM" fades in below.

Trivia: This was actually sourced from a film called A Safe Place, starring Orson Welles and directed by Henry Jaglom, who is also the owner of this studio. Also, you can see the scene in the trailer for said film.

Variants:
 * For the most part, the logo is cropped.
 * On Venice/Venice, the words "A RAINBOW RELEASE" replace "A JAGFILM".

FX/SFX: Mostly live action, except for the text wiping and fading in.

Music/Sounds: None.

Availability: Rare. Seen on films from this period starting with Sitting Ducks and up until Venice/Venice. However, this logo does not appear on Can She Bake a Cherry Pie?.

Legacy: This logo has scared many people, due to the absence of music and the evil-looking man in the logo.

2nd Logo (April 4, 1980-December 8, 1983)
Logo: The logo nearly follows the same behavior as the Rainbow Pictures logo except the logo is yellow and appears letter-by-letter, the text is in the Broadway font.

Variant: On Can She Bake a Cherry Pie?, the logo is black with no shadow effect and the text "A JAGFILM" is added underneath.

FX/SFX: The letters appearing.

Music/Sounds: The ending theme of the movie.

2nd Logo (November 22, 1995-)
Logo: Same as the 1st International Rainbow Pictures logo except the text has been replaced with "A RAINBOW PICTURE", now in a fixed position (it fits the rainbow).

Variant:
 * An early version of this logo has the footage fade in first and when we get close enough to his face, the text "A RAINBOW RELEASE" appears in the same animation as the normal variant. A few seconds later, as the live-action footage fades out, the text fades out several frames after the footage began fading out.
 * On Déjà Vu, the text from the above variant has been replaced with the one from the normal variant and the footage now simply pops up.
 * An open-matte version of this logo was seen on the trailer to said film.
 * On the trailer to Going Shopping, only the text from the early variant appears.
