Background

Zespół Filmowy X was a Polish film production studio, founded on New Year's Day in 1972. The studio's formation was the brainchild of acclaimed Polish director Andrzej Wajda, who served as the Artistic Director for the duration of the studio's existence. It was dissolved on May 1, 1983, when in a period of martial law the team was forcibly shut down by the Polish government in retaliation for the political positions adopted by the team as manifested in the team's film product and in Wajda's, in particular, identification with the Solidarity (Polish trade union) movement.

Logo (January 9, 1973-September 10, 1976)

Visuals: On a grass plain, we see black swallows fly towards the screen. The two-lined text "PRZEDSIĘBIORSTWO REALIZACJI FILMÓW - ZESPOŁY FILMOWE" appears on the screen and then disappears. The swallows form a big "X" and the words "ZESPÓŁ FILMOWY" appear left from it and then disappear. Additional swallows appear and merge into the X. Suddenly, it dissolves back into the swallows and the swallows fly to the screen and cover it, leaving just the black background. The white word "PRZEDSTAWIA" is then seen.

Variant: On Motylem jestem, czyli romans czterdziestolatka, the "PRZEDSTAWIA" text at the end is on a red background.

Technique: Cel animation, with the background used being live-action.

Audio: The howling of swallows that gets louder during the animation, then finishes with a loud gun-like bang, which in itself is a stock sound effect.

Availability: Seen before Partita na instrument drewniany, among other films.
