Rainforest Films

Logo descriptions and photos added by EnormousRat

Background: Rainforest Films was a company formed in 1994 that primarily produced films for an African-American audience. It was formed after the obscure 1994 film Chocolate Citybecame a minor hit at Blockbuster. In June 2014, the company began plans for shutting down, and was hit with a lawsuit from Bernard Bronner, who claimed that the company mistreated him when he owned part of it. The company still shut down anyway, and dismissed the lawsuit as "frivolous". The company did not use a logo until Trois.

1st Logo (2000-2004) Rainforest Films (2000)Rainforest Films (2000) Logo: On a black background, we see a dark blue raindrop, glowing in green, that has several overlapped green trees on it with a little relief effect. "RAINFOREST FILMS" is written in a white Copperplate Gothic Bold font.

Variant: On Trois, the raindrop is placed in a circle on a white background, with some waterdrops behind it and the text "Rainforest" (above) and "Films" (below) in a stylized font.

FX/SFX: None.

Music/Sounds: None.

Availability: Seen on Trois, Trois 2: Pandora's Box, Trois 3: The Escort and Motives.

Editor's Note: None.

2nd Logo (2005)

Logo: We see the same raindrop design like in the previous logo, but the colors are milder. The logo also takes more of the screen. The name, written in orange 3D capitals in Trajan Pro, is posed over the lower part of the Rainforest Films (2005)raindrop. A small light shines under the name, making a gradient color effect.

Variant: At the end of The Gospel, the logo is still and in black and white.

FX/SFX: The name shining.

Music/Sounds: None.

Availability: Seen only on The Gospel.

Editor's Note: None.

3rd Logo (2007-2014)

Logo: We zoom out through a green rainforest, but suddenly release out from a drop of water. There are three pines inside it. The drop zooms to the center of the screen, where "RAINFOREST FILMS" in Trajan Pro is already Rainforest Filmsseen

FX/SFX: The zooming of the rainforest. Much better than the last logo.

Music/Sounds: None of the opening theme of the movie.

Availability: Seen on films such as Stomp the Yard, Think Like a Man, About Last Night and This Christmas, among others.

Editor's Note: None.
