From the Audiovisual Identity Database, the motion graphics museum


Background

This is Peter Abrams and Robert L. Levy's production company.



1st Logo (January 10-August 25, 1995)


Visuals: On a black background, the yellow word "TAPESTRY" is seen between two red horizontal lines, while "F I L M S" is below stretched to fit the logo's width. Above it, there is a big letter "T", made of 5 lines with various thickness. The logo is still.

Technique: Fading effects.

Audio: None or the opening theme of the movie.

Availability: Seen on The Granny and Payback.

2nd Logo (August 11, 1995-January 26, 2001)


Visuals: On a black background, there is an orange shadow that reveals the word "TAPESTRY". It slowly fills in with a solid yellow color, while two red lines accompany it above and below. Below the logo, "F I L M S", stretched out to fit the width of it, flips in letter-by-letter.

Variant: A still black-and-white version appeared at the end of She's All That and The Wedding Planner. On the latter film, the logo is blue. Note that these films were released after the next logo was introduced.

Technique: CGI.

Audio: An orchestral fanfare composed by J.A.C. Redford. The closing theme of the movie for the closing version.

Availability: Appeared on several films, such as A Kid in King Arthur's Court and The Last Time I Committed Suicide. Newer HD releases of the latter plaster this and the Kushner-Locke logo with Multicom, but is retained on most home video and DVD releases.

3rd Logo (November 16, 1999-November 25, 2009, September 10, 2021)


Visuals: The logo starts with an ancient room with some artifacts and the camera moves to a textured quilt with "TAPESTRY F I L M S", separated by a line. As the screen fades out, a bright light forms a red line in between "TAPESTRY" and "F I L M S", forming the logo on a black background. The logo looks like this:

TAPESTRY

__________

F I L M S

Variants:

  • A short version of this logo appears at the end of Our Lips are Sealed and the start of Small Engine Repair.
  • At the end of Old Dogs, the logo is still.

Technique: CGI.

Audio: Same as the last logo. The closing theme of the movie for the short and still versions.

Availability: Can be found on some releases starting with Diplomatic Siege. Also appears on movies such as National Lampoon's Van Wilder, Employee of the Month, Our Lips are Sealed, and Passport to Paris. The logo also was used on Small Engine Repair as well.
