Aviron Pictures

Background
Aviron Pictures was a film production and distribution company founded in 2016 and officially launched on May 11, 2017 by William Sadleir and David Dinerstein, with the former departing from Clarius Entertainment following its bankruptcy and the latter who also founded Paramount Classics.

On May 22, 2020, Sadleir was charged with wire frauds and identity theft by financer BlackRock, who later diverted more than $75 million funds from the company and his mansion. He also transferred $1 million of COVID-19 emergency funds, which was supposed to keep Aviron staff on payroll, and eventually led to the company's bankruptcy. Sadlier pled guilty on January 19, 2022 and was sentenced to 72 months in prison on September 9 that same year.

1st Logo (February 23, 2016)
Logo: A steel blue lens flare flashes in, and as it dies down, the text "AVIRON" fades in and zooms out one-by-one. The background then fades to a smoky background which quickly turns blue with an off-screen light only shown from a bit above. Then, the text shines as it slowly zooms in.

Technique: CGI animation.

Music/Sounds: Same as the Clarius Entertainment logo.

Availability: Rare. Only seen on the home media release of My All American, as theatrical prints used the aforementioned logo.

2nd Logo (2016-)
Logo: We see a starry sky fade into a lake, and as it gets brighter, we see four men rowing a boat in sync with each other. The camera pans to follow them, and eventually the scene zooms out to become the corporate logo as the company name is revealed, chiseled on the metal background, as the small word "PICTURES" fades in.

Technique: CGI animation.

Music/Sounds: A soft piano and horn tune that grows more majestic and adds choir as time goes on, ending with an orchestral hit and some twinkling. Otherwise, it's the opening theme of the film.

Availability: No longer current. It first appeared on Aviron Pictures' website (which has since been removed, although it can still be found on their YouTube channel). The logo later made its theatrical debut on Kidnap.
