The Warner bros logo has evolved a lot from when it was first made. In 1923 the logo was a very simple black and white shield like shape with the branded initials in the centre. This logo was used through 1923-1929 before being edited. This was nicknamed the "brain shield". In the top half of the shield was a photo of the exterior of their original studio building.

 Logo Variations

The warner bros logo has many variations personal to some of their film. They change certain parts of it to suite or specify the genre. This logo was adapted to suite the needs of the film My fair lady (1964).The logo is presented in a smart beige to make it look regal , this is emphasised by the Edwardian script giving an elegant Shakespearian presentation.

One crazy summer (1986) firstly shows the normal logo but then turns into a cartoon drawing. The shield then opens revealing a pink bunny. This beginning relates to the crazy title and storyline. This suggests the film is a comedy. The film is about a teenage cartoonist again portrayed in the logo sequence.

 In Lethal weapons four (1998)the warner bros logo starts of normal but then destroyed by a fireball this relates to the genre (action)

 .

  The Scooby doo movie  (2002)completely changes the warner brothers logo to resemble Scooby's name tag. However it keeps many characteristic of the original logo. The bottom also reads "A mystery inc. Company " cleverly playing on the name of the company.

(2005) Constantine's film genre is shown immediately when the logo breaks apart . The dark and dull fiery tones and storming sky represents hell in which the film relates to. The whole shield and background have the same dark and reddish tones. 

 The festive spirit in Fred Claus (2008)is portrayed within moments when the logo is draped in Christmas lights. The shield itself is a silver like tree decorations. The snow shown falling is resting on the logo again showing the Christmas celebration.
