Production company ideas
Friday, November 13, 2015
When discussing our production company, we came up with two ideas for names:
Unhappy Life Pictures
We produce films with negative themes.The name parallels with the film we are creating and the protagonist, who lives an unhappy life.
Backstory: we found a piece of paper on the table that said “Unhappy Life”, and felt it was appealing as a title of a production company.
The title could insinuate an album of 'unhappy' life pictures, which could work as opening sequence and/or logo.
Edelweiss Productions
A White Mountain flower, in the daisy family.
The flower was a symbol of rebellion of Hitler in Germany during Nazi rule, used by the Edelweiss Pirates. The flower can therefore be described as the symbol of rebellion. And our film company’s goal is to break out of conformity, to rebel against the modern society and its films that are all the same. We want to make something truly original.
Also, the translation for Edelweiss in German means Noble white, so this could insinuate the cause of ours is a noble one. And the “white” also insinuates innocence, so this could contrast with the dark and evil themes of our films, making them even more shocking.The flower was a symbol of rebellion of Hitler in Germany during Nazi rule, used by the Edelweiss Pirates.

We decided to settle for Unhappy Life Pictures due to our previous attachment to the name. I started coming up with logos to use - I wanted it to be fairly simple and clean, so I came up with the image below.
We talked about how we could have a transition where unhappy is 'wiped' on.
