Pagot Film (Italy)

(1949)


Logo: On a dark background we see a 7-chord yellow harp. Suddenly, the chords appear in a different colors successively, from the left to the right: magenta, red, orange, yellow, green, green-blue, and blue. Then, we see the text in white inside the harp: PAGOT FILM Finally, the harp disappears and we see the same text but in black inside a castle on blue background (dark blue on the top, and bright blue on the bottom) in addition to this: DISEGNI ANIMATI I T A L I A The castle in the highest tower has a yellow star.

FX/SFX: The colors of the chords of the harp and the change from the harp to the castle. Typical animation for the era.

Music/Sounds: A loud, shrill sound of a violin before the chords of the harp appear in different colors. Then, we hear a note from a harp every time a chord appears in a color, and from the 2nd chord there's also an ascend et shrill of a violin. When the harp disappears and the castle appears, we hear a strum of a harp, followed by a hit of a bell and a typical happy orchestra melody, which ends with another hit of the bell.

Availability: Seen on I Fratelli Dinamite.
