1st Logo (2013-November 19, 2020)


Logo: We see a white environment where we move back from a trail of multiple spherical bumps which emerge from the surface, and then the camera rotates into perspective, revealing the text "Big Hit" in the Twentieth Century font forming sideways with the byline "Music & Artist for Healing" in the same fashion. As the camera moves back, the sphere trail is shown swirling to form the dot of the "i" from "Big", and another trail appears below, settling into the "i" from "Hit". The letters rotate to the front, and as the other trail settles into the "i" of "Hit", the background turns a little darker, and the byline morphs into the word "Entertainment" in a typewriter-style font. A shadow appears behind the logo.

Technique: 3D computer animation.

1st Logo (2021-)
