Parkes+MacDonald Image Nation

Background
This is the production company of Walter F. Parkes and Laurie MacDonald. Its origins go back to 1991 when Parkes and MacDonald formed Aerial Pictures, initially set up at Columbia Pictures. In 1993, it was moved to 20th Century Fox. Later that year, it was moved once again and merged into Amblin Entertainment, and later at DreamWorks Pictures, with Parkes filling the seat left by the departure of Kathleen Kennedy.

In 2005, the company was revived as "Parkes + MacDonald Productions" (aka P+M), being set up at DreamWorks Pictures.

In 2012, the duo formed a joint venture with Imagenation Abu Dhabi (now Image Nation), renaming the company "Parkes + MacDonald Image Nation".

Logo (November 7, 2008-)
Visuals: There is a close up of multiple white papers flying around, only for them to give way to a black background with the letters "P" and "M" sliding in from opposite sides of the screen. The letters connect to form the shape of a chair as some papers land around it. A sheet flies by to reveal the text "P+M" with either "PRODUCTIONS" or "IMAGE NATION" next to it. The text shines and the "+" and the "N" in "IMAGE NATION" turn cyan-ish blue as a sheet of paper lands in the "chair".

Variants:
 * On the short-lived series Crossbones and the failed pilot of Warrior, the logo is shortened to where the papers stop moving.
 * A still version appears at the end of Dinner for Schmucks and the American adaptation of The Slap.
 * On Free Solo, the full "PARKES + MACDONALD" name is seen with "IMAGE NATION" below. Also, the logo is sped up.

Technique: CGI.

Audio: A fast-paced dramatic pizzicato tune with a typing sound, none, or the opening theme of the movie.

Availability: It was first seen on The Burning Plain and later appeared on The Uninvited, Dinner for Schmucks, Men in Black 3, Flight, Free Solo, and Men in Black: International.
