The design elements you use can help distinguish between logos made for film production companies and the movies themselves. When creating a film production logo, for example, an icon with film strips can showcase that you’re in the business of making movies.
To design a logo for a movie, think about how you can entice possible audience members with intriguing design elements. The logo for the Pixar movie Up is a good example. It features an icon with a key element of the film — the house tied to balloons — in a way that piques viewers’ interest.
