Background
Efftee Studios was an early Australian film and theatre production studio, established by F.W. Thring (the name 'Efftee' deriving from his initials, 'FT' for Francis Thring) in 1930. It existed until Thring's death in 1935. Initially Efftee Films was based in Melbourne and used optical sound equipment imported from the US.

(November 6, 1931- October 13, 1934)


Nicknames: "The Aussie MGM Logo", "MGM'S Australian Cousin", "Koala MGM", "Aussie-Goldwyn Mayer"

Logo: On a black background, we see a footage of a Koala bear climbing a tree and after that, it starts eating the leaves from the tree. The footage is surrounded with a marquee that's similar to the MGM logo. The words "EFFTEE FILM PRODUCTIONS" are placed on a filmstrip below and the rest of the marquee have leaves surrounded by it.

FX/SFX: Mostly live-action.

Music/Sounds: None or the opening music of the film.

Avalibillity: Rare, as this was seen on films from the company such as Clara Gibbings (1934), Diggers (1931), and others.

Editors Note: This is a parody of the MGM logo due the Koala footage and the marquee that's similar to the said logo. It is a cute logo, though it was only from a short-lived film company that ran for 4 years.
