Rave Motion Pictures

Background

Rave Motion Pictures is a cinema chain formed in 1999 by Thomas W. Stevenson Jr.

1st Logo (1999-????)

Nickname: "Film in Space"

Logo: A starfield fades into view. The camera performs a 180 and we see a countdown starting at 5, with a female voice-over counting down on-screen. After it reaches one, we enter some sort of warp tunnel and fall out into space, dodging random meteors, ending with a white flash. The camera zooms out on a planet with a film strip orbiting it, ever growing. Then it cuts to a screen saying "rave motion pictures". Underneath, the slogan enters, letter by letter, reading "THE FUTURE: NOW SHOWING".

FX/SFX: The VO from the woman, whooshing from the meteors. Impressive CGI.

Music/Sounds: A space tune that changes with each transition. It reaches a high point during the meteor sequence and then gets quieter as the logo ends.

Availability: Found in Rave theaters but probably not in use.

Editor's Note: None.
