research for our own ident creation.

1. Company Idents in Teaser Trailers

2. Submarine
As this is a full trailer the conventions may be different from a teaser
trailer.
The film had 3 idents and each one lasted for a second and it came up
after one scene from the trailer. The idents were all still images and were
very simple. This worked as the focus of the trailer is on the film however
the idents still stood out as it was white text on a black background.
The Weinstein Company distributed the film whilst Film 4 produced the
film and the UK Film Lottery funded the production.

3. Angus, Thongs and Perfect Snogging
Again the trailer for this was a full trailer and not a teaser trailer and
so the conventions may be different.
The film had 2 idents and the first one came up 5 seconds into the
film after being introduced to the main character. The Paramount
trailer was a full ident as it had the movement and it lasted 2 seconds.
Straight after the Nickelodeon movies ident came up and lasted for 1
second.
Nickelodeon movies produced the film and Paramount distributed the
film.

4. Titanic
For this film there was an actual teaser trailer and so the idents will
conform to the conventions and so it is a good film to look at.
The film has two idents and they are the first thing that the audience
sees when the teaser starts. The first one lasted four seconds and it
was a reduced version of the ident that they have at the beginning of
films. The ident was then overlapped with the next ident that lasted
two seconds.
The first ident was for 20th Century Fox and this along with Lightstorm
produced it. 20th Century Fox distributed the film. However, there were
other companies that weren’t mentioned.

5. Conclusion
• In relation to our research on company idents
primarily for films relating to our genre of film.
We have looked at idents for Submarine,
Angus thongs and perfect snogging and lastly
Titantic. To conclude our research, we intend
to use a black background as this will make
our ident stand out, as well as to use a simple
ident to keep it effective and eye catching for
the audience.
