Associated British Picture Corporation (UK)

Background: Founder John Maxwell bought British National Studios at Elstree in 1927 and renamed the company British International Pictures. An early hit for BIP was Alfred Hitchcock's Blackmail (1929), regarded as Britain's first 'talkie'. Hitchcock made several films for the company between 1927 and 1937- his departure for Gaumont-British. After World War II, Maxwell made a deal with Warner Bros. to distribute BIP films stateside, and the company was renamed Associated British Picture Corporation (ABPC). ABPC's greatest period of success was during the 1950s and 1960s. ABPC was taken over by EMI in 1969.British International Pictures (BIP)(1927-1937)Logo:On a cloudy sky background, we see our Earth spinning like the Universal logo.

Logo description by MargannLaurissaLogo capture by mr3uriousVideo capture courtesy of KidCairbreBackground: The first incarnation of Ealing Studios was created in 1902 by Will Barker Studios, a company whose namesake (1868-1951) was a British film producer, director and cinematographer as well as an entrepreneur. In 1929, Basil Dean (1888-1978), a former stage actor turned film producer, created a production company that acquired Will Barker Studios. The company was renamed Ealing Studios in 1931. Two years later, in 1933, the company was renamed Associated Talking Pictures. The name remained for the next five years until Dean was replaced at the helm by Michael Balcon (1896-1977), who had affiliations with Gainsborough Pictures, as well as with the British subsidiaries of Gaumontand Metro-Goldwyn-Mayer. Balcon changed the name back to Ealing Studios in 1938. In 1944, the company was taken over by the Rank Organisation.1st (Known) Logo(1933-1938)Nicknames: "ATP in Space", "Zooming ATP", "Megaphone Man"Logo: We see a dark background with a black and white globe at the bottom of the screen.

Its right arm is ramrod straight at its side. The legs of the figure are held together and minutely bent behind it. As it zooms in, so do the letters A T P. The A shifts to the left, the T is dead centre, and the P shifts to the right. The T is somewhat higher than both the A and the P, while the A and P are parallel to each other. The figure imposes itself over the T and suddenly turns to the left, showing itself to be wearing a winged helmet much like the Roman god Mercury. Its megaphone is held up so that it is minutely higher than the A to its left and just underneath the top stick of the T. The figure's feet just touch the bottom corner of the P. Just as the figure shifts to the side, the word PRESENTS comes around the globe as it spins and then goes off screen.FX/SFX: The letters ATP and the figure zooming in, the glowing and spinning of the globe, the word PRESENTS appearing.Music/Sounds: A five-note horn fanfare broken up into three parts.
