Atom Films

(1985)


Logo: We start off as a Starry Space Background. Then, a bunch of blue Lights start to appear, forming a bunch of trails. The Lights start to get off-screen & the word "ATOM" starts to show up, where the "O" has an atom in the hole (hence the company name) with a chyron trail, making it look like green/purple/blue. We zoom-out from the word to reveal the word "FILMS" in a metallic rectangle below "ATOM". When it zooms out completely, the chyron trail dissolves to reveal the company name in blue on the same background.

Technique: 2D Animation combined with chyron effects.

Music/Sounds: A held-out electric guitar note, as well as a 2-second synthesizer note, which turns into a synth note that echoes & repeats for a long period of time.

Availability: Very rare.

Legacy: The strange sounds & animation can get to some, but it's intentional due to the company name.
