Not to be confused with DNA Productions.

Background

DNA Films is a British film production company founded by Duncan Kenworthy and Andrew Macdonald in 1997.

1st Logo (January 19, 2001-September 16, 2005)

PAL Pitched

NTSC Pitched

Visuals: On a blue background, we see 3 squares revolving around with various mismatched bodies (like a Rubik's Cube), forming several people dancing and miming to the voice heard in the logo, until we get to a robot dancing in a feminine news reporter's body. It then fades into a white box reading "DNA" on it, with "films" next to it. On the bottom right, the URL "www.dnafilms.com" appears.

Variant: A still variant exists.

Technique: CGI mixed with live-action footage.

Audio: A dramatic synth-piano theme with a whispery voice saying "D... N... A..." one letter at a time, then a distorted robotic voice saying "DNA". Otherwise, it's the opening theme of the movie.

Availability: Seen on movies from the period, such as Beautiful Creatures and The Parole Officer.

2nd Logo (December 25, 2006-)

Visuals: We see a spiral of many "DNA"s in yellow with red side for strips. We then pan across and see many of the strips until we see a "DNA" in the middle with four "DNA"'s in the corners of the screen.

Technique: CGI.

Audio: Deep whooshes and the sounds of a projector.

Availability: Seen on films such as 28 Days Later and Never Let Me Go.
