1st Logo (1981-1983)



Visuals: Against a black background, two blue word "ALMI" and "FILMS", in a fancy broadway theater-esque font, streak in from the top and bottom of the screen and meet in the center and flash brightly. Then, two sparks form a bronze frame from the top and bottom of the text, traveling clockwise. The finished product shines with a few "pings".

Variant: There is a variant featuring the text "ALMI CINEMA 5 FILMS". Although no on-screen version has been found yet, there are print versions on some adverts.

Technique: Likely Scanimate.

Audio: A deep synthesized jingle, with a few high-pitched notes to go along with the "pinging".

Availability: Seen on foreign prints of Spaceship (AKA: The Creature Wasn't Nice). The Australian VHS of the film has the Almi Television version of this logo instead.

2nd Logo (1983-1987)


Visuals: On a dark blue background, there is several tri-dimensional red stripes move in from the left and then zoom out, forming the word "ALMI", in the same font as before. When the forming is complete, the logo starts to shine twice. Then a rounded red rectangle zooms out from nowhere, and places itself around "ALMI" and the word "Pictures" in cursive, with two red lines connecting to its sides, draws under it and shines.

Technique: CGI.

Audio: A relaxing and synchronized synthesized jingle. Sometimes, it is silent, or has the opening theme to any given film.

Availability: Can be seen on the VHS releases of La Historia Oficial (a.k.a. The Official Story) and The Rosebud Beach Hotel.
