The Canton Company

From the Audiovisual Identity Database, the motion graphics museum

Background

This was the production company of Mark Canton. It was formed in 1998, but it closed in 2001.

Logo (September 26, 1999-May 18, 2001)


Visuals: On a blue starfield background, the camera zooms out past a sun, star, and crescent moon (all with visible motion lines), then a man with a film camera standing on a cloud until the image is enclosed in a vertical rectangle on a white background. The name "THE CANTON COMPANY" zooms in to the right of the image, casting a shadow underneath.

Variant: A short version exists where the logo is revealed via a burst of light and the name is smaller in proportion to the rectangle. The text "IN ASSOCIATION WITH" is seen below.

Technique: CGI.

Audio: The opening theme of the movie or none. On the short version, a piano sting is heard accompanied by a whooshing sound.

Availability: Can be seen on Get Carter (2000), Angel Eyes, and the short-lived show Jack & Jill.
