Background
: FavoritFilm (Фаворит-Фильм) is a Russian company created in 2003 to produce television series. It has already made numerous well-known (in Russia) series, along with a pair of "big" films. In latest years, FF work in a venture with Central Partnership.

1st Logo
(2003)

Favorit-Film (2003)Logo: A white horse is racing onto the hill top. Then it stops and rears, letting out a loud whinny. The sunlight at background gathers to the pink hemisphere and the name in red appears, reading "ФАВОРИТФИЛЬМ". More Russian text appears below in white.

FX/SFX: Animation of the horse and environment.

Music/Sounds: A trumpet and drum fanfare starting the rising harp, with the horse whinny.

Availability: Rare, as it was only seen on the first produced series.

Editor's Note: None.



2nd Logo
(2004-2007)

Logo: Same as the previous logo, but the sunrise is different. Also, the horse runs for a longer time. Part of the name was changed it's colors to soft yellow.

FX/SFX: Same as the previous logo.


Music/Sounds: Same as the previous logo, but with the 4th Rhino Home Video music playing at the beginning accompanied by horse galloping sound.

Availability: Not rare in Russia; was seen on many TV-series produced by the time. Can be seen in other countries as the company production is on sale there.

Editor's Note: Despite the blatant use of Rhino's music (which could cause a few laughs), this one is actually a good logo.



3rd Logo
(2007-)

Logo: A golden thread appears on the blue starfield. Then it rushes to the left, changing scenes, and creates a rearing horse outline, which then fills in gold and shines. The name with the hilltop also fade in below in a splash of light. The shine appears on the horse hoof.

Variants:
  • The upline "PRODUCTION BY" (in Russian) was made in white letters before 2009.
  • The still variant has the compressed upline made in the same font as the name.
  • There is a upline-less version used in the big movies.
FX/SFX: Great animation.

Music/Sounds: A different, somewhat gloomy soundtrack. None for the still version.

Availability: Common; the early version was seen on Kapkan. The logo without upline was used on the full movie Looser. The still version with newer upline was seen in Wolf Messing, which was airing in the First Channel.

Editor's Note: None.
