Compañía Nacional Productora de Películas

(March 30, 1931)


Visuals: On a dark background, we see a drawing of an eagle with a snake in its beak (national symbol of Mexico). The symbol is displayed with a rather primitive, flickering style of animation emitting lines of light as rays (a la Columbia Pictures). The text above the symbol is:  La '''CIA. NACIONAL PRODUCTORA''' DE PELICULAS, S.A. Times New Roman Times New Roman The L of "La" connects with the M of "Times New Roman". Below the symbol contains "Times New Roman". Finally, the logo zooms in.

Technique: Practical animation.

Audio: The opening theme of the movie.

Availability: Only seen on Santa, although the company made films between 1929 and 1935.
