I researched various production logos, such as Lionsgate Entertainment, Warner brothers, Columbia production, and Paramount pictures. Rather than looking for a production logo that was generic I looked for logos which had been edited to suit a horror film. E.g. A Walt Disney pictures production logo http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=W8BYaTIWX1U wouldn’t be appropriate for a film such as Nightmare on Elm Street. A production logo which came up perfect for a slasher horror film was Lionsgate. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=JaqRwg2GP6w .
The Lionsgate production logo starts off with a panning shot of industrial cogs, it then zooms out through a lock on a door, the doors then swing open and the Lionsgate logo appears behind the door. The background against the Lionsgate logo is almost as if you where entering into another realm and the atmosphere building up throughout the sequence sets the tone for that realm. Throughout the sequence there is low profile lighting and orange lighting has been used to help set a horrific atmosphere .
