Background

In early 2009, Golden Harvest merged with the China-based Orange Sky Entertainment Group and was renamed Orange Sky Golden Harvest Entertainment Co. (橙天嘉禾娛樂集團有限公司), also known as "Orange Sky Golden Harvest (Holdings) Limited". From 2009 to 2011, it was operated by Kelvin Wu King Shiu, who become the CEO of the company.

Logo (2009-)


Visuals: The camera zooms out from a steam of wheat in a golden wheat field. From this wheat, a light moves out of it and above the wheat field. The light then descends and flattens the wheat field. When the screen zooms out, the unflattened wheat is the 1978 logo, but with the bottom-left rectangle having the same height as the top-left one, turning the "G" into a square. The field then wipes out, forming a bronze CGI version of the "Rectangle G" as the logo straightens and white letters in both Cantonese and English reveal the company's name.

Technique: CGI.

Audio: Same as the 2002 Golden Harvest logo, but with added ambiance sounds from the field.

Audio Variant: On some prints of 玻璃樽 (Gorgeous), the music from the 1998 TriStar Pictures logo plays over this logo due to a reverse plaster error.

Availability: Appears on all current films produced and distributed by Orange Sky Golden Harvest. [Examples?]
