His standup was great but were there any good Richard Lewis movies besides Men In Tights? Is Drunks any good?

help settle a debate: what do you call the video that plays before a movie starts that introduces the studio logo. like the searchlights for 20th century fox or the globe for universal, etc. is there a formal name for these videos? like a preview of an upcoming movie is called a trailer, but is there a special name for what i'm describing?

ruddiger posted:Fanfare? feels close, but i wonder if that's just the musical number that plays to accompany the video itself. someone i know is saying it's called a pre-roll but that doesn't feel right. he runs a plex server and they have it as a built in feature to include custom "pre-rolls" before media starts. i just never heard of anything playing before a movie called that before.

Yeah that’s the fanfare Technically fanfare is referring to the music and comes from live performances to announce that they’re starting (and if you dig farther back it was to announce the arrival of a VIP at events), but in movies they’re synonymous with the distributor logo Steve Yun fucked around with this message at 02:23 on Feb 29, 2024 |

Pre roll is everything that plays before the movie, especially ads, and it’s particularly common terminology in online video (like plex) https://en.m.wiktionary.org/wiki/preroll I think it actually comes from misunderstanding an older use of the word to mean stuff caught on camera before a take starts but after the camera starts but I’m not 100% on that

I like it in European films when there's 7 different logos before the film because to get anything with a decent budget made on the continent it needs to be an international co-production so you can maximise the number of film funds you can draw from.

The term is "Europudding"* and yeah it's great. Especially when they all have their logos but then they all have to be listed again in great detail in the opening credits. It's actually a complete pain in the dick to try and cobble together these funding sources from what I've seen, not a fun part of the job at all.

Hell yeah. The contorted single-use company names and animations are a treat. I get a disproportionate amount of satisfaction from identifying logos by their opening frames. The filmic equivalent of "name that tune in 3 notes."

A Ridley Scott movie wouldn't be the same without the Scott Free intro. Edit: I love the Dutch Filmworks one, there's something ominous to that whirlpool. It's funny because they're a distributor and it is usually attached to various light-hearted stuff. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=b5i5Dk3TDY8 Mierenneuker fucked around with this message at 12:22 on Feb 29, 2024 |

But also yeah, what a waste of a great concept and two incredible leads. A movie that only works at all because McDowell and Warner are so good.

Just 7? On the film I am producing Sony Classics has limited the number of animated logos we can have for exactly this reason. In their territory we will have cards with shared static logos instead. Failed Imagineer posted:The term is "Europudding"* and yeah it's great. Especially when they all have their logos but then they all have to be listed again in great detail in the opening credits. Yep! Cobbling those elements together is what I do. The one I am producing now is a UK-French-Polish-German-Belgian Co-production. I worked on the closing for Trjangle of Sadness, and that had about 20 financing sources. therattle fucked around with this message at 14:13 on Feb 29, 2024 |

It’s funny but logos and opening credits are such an important part of the magic of cinema for me. I absolutely love it when the 20Th Century Fox fanfare plays and then five seconds later some basically redundant text fades in saying “20th Century Fox presents”… hell yeah, here we go, it’s the movies baby
