M-ZET Films (Philippines)

1st Logo (1990)
Nicknames: "Motorola-Like M", "The Alien M", "Early M-ZET"

Logo: TBA

FX/SFX: TBA

Music/Sounds: A creepy UFO-like sound.

Availability: Very rare, only seen on Crocodile Jones: The Son of Indiana Dundee.

Editor's Note: TBA

2nd Logo (1990-1992)


Nicknames: "The Horse in Front of the Sun", "Motorola-Like M II", "The Alien M II", "M-ZET I"

Logo: A pink-ish light appears on the top-left corner. The sun rises. A horse runs in from the left and stops, looks at it's legs and then stands up, and both things zoom out. A vertical rectangle with blue lines and a border appears from above, and places behind the sun. Parts of the M then zoom out and join. "ZET" flashes in below the M, along with "FILMS", which is seen below the horse and sun.

Variants:


 * On Okay ka, Fairy Ko! and Sam and Miguel: Your Basura No Problema, a short version was used.
 * There is a slightly short version and more blue tinted, this was seen on Okay ka Fairy Ko! Part 2.

FX/SFX: All 2D animation.

Music/Sounds: A synth fanfare, along with other sounds, including the ascending/descending sounds and the horse.

Music/Sounds Variants: The short version uses the whoosh and chime bells was heard. ''On Okay Ka Fairy Ko! Part 2'', an eerie music features the whoosh sound and weird noise at the end (much like the monster roar or Pokemon game/cry) was heard.

Availability: Rare, can be found movies like Samson & Goliath and ''Okay ka Fairy Ko! Part 2, the short version appears on Okay ka, Fairy Ko! and Sam And Miguel: Your Basura No Problema''.

Editor's Note: The animation is extremely choppy and the sound effects are ill-fitting - albeit humorous. Given that this sometimes followed the notoriously eerie Regal Home Video (Philippines) logo, this may have been a welcome reprieve.

3rd Logo (1992-1996)


Nicknames: "Horse II"

Logo: Essentially a truncated version of the first logo, proceeding from the point where the sun and horse are already in place.

FX/SFX: Same as the first logo, albeit without the sun rising and horse galloping into place.

Music/Sounds: An icy synthesizer tone, followed by some synth zaps and thunder-like crashes as the logo's elements come together.

Availability: Unknown, but likely extremely rare.

Editor's Note: The animation is still choppy, and although the music is more well-suited this time around, it's far creepier than the first logo.

3rd Logo (1996-1999)
Nickname: "M-ZET II", "Motorola-Like M III", "The Alien M III", "Cheesy M-Zet"

Logo: On a black background, we see an "M" forming with blue bars resembling a blue square which the "M" is on. Then more blue bars appear and "ZET" appears under the blue box "M", then "FILMS" appears under "ZET". Several blue lines shoot toward the screen.

FX/SFX: The animation in the logo.

Music/Sounds: The trumpet portion with synth tinkles from the OctoArts Films and Cinemax Studios logos.

Music/Sounds Variants:


 * On Enteng and the Shaolin Kid and Ang Tange Kong Pag-ibig, a creepy, yet dreamy synth music that also plays on the Mother Studio Films and Moviearts Films logos.
 * On Biyudo Si Daddy, Biyuda Si Mommy, A An choir sound with an ascending-descending synth sound that also plays on MegaVision Films and Libran Films Inc.
 * On Basta't ikaw... Nanginginig pa, a dramatic fanfare with rising sound was heard.

Availability: Uncommon, can be found on movies like Lab En Kisses, Ang Tange Kong Pag-ibig, D'Sisters: Nuns of the above, and Biyudo Si Daddy, Biyuda Si Mommy.

Editor's Note: Much tamer than the 2nd logo, thanks to the soothing synth stinger. The "extending bar" animations would have been considered cheap by the 1970s. But for a logo conceived in the mid-90s? It's a complete anachronism that almost transcends cheesiness and loops back around into artistic merit.

4th Logo (2001-2016)


Nickname: "Connecting Blue Bars"

Logo: On a black background, we see many blue bars stacking (a la Fries Entertainment) to form a TV tube shape with "MZ" on it and "TV" on the bottom of the "Z". Then, we zoom out, and the text "M-ZET TV PRODUCTION, INC." appears underneath.

FX/SFX: Modern computer graphics.

Music/Sounds: A dark synth tune from the OctoArts Films logo.

Music/Sounds Variants: TBA

Availability: Common, can be found on some Filipino movies like Enteng Kabisote 3, Lastikman, and more upcoming films.

Editor's Note: None.

FX/SFX: TBA

Music/Sounds: The Opening Theme of the movie.
