Background: In 1992, Caravan Pictures was created by Joe Roth and Roger Birnbaum as part of the Buena Vista Pictures Distribution (now "Walt Disney Studios Motion Pictures") arm for producing films for Disney companies such as Hollywood Pictures, Walt Disney Pictures, and Touchstone Pictures. In 1994, Roth became the head chief of Disney and left B...
Nickname: "The Walking Man"
Logo: On a black background, we see a dark setting with blue hills and a road. A man with a fedora walks down the road, and the setting brightens. A box zooms out around the area with the man, and "CARAVAN PICTURES" appears above and below the picture, respectively.
Trivia: The logo and company name is most likely a nod to Sullivan's Travels, a 1941 comedy about a filmmaker who sets out to make more meaningful movies. He travels on foot in a similar shot. At the end of the film, he describes his life as a "cockeyed caravan." Joe Roth is reportedly a fan of Sullivan's Travels director Preston Sturges, and his former company, Morgan Creek Productions, is named after another Sturges film, The Miracle of Morgan's Creek. Also, the logo was designed and created by John Kehe.
FX/SFX: The man with a fedora walking down the road, the setting brightening, the box zooming out around the area and the man, the "CARAVAN PICTURES" text appearing on above and below the picture.
Music/Sounds: We hear a nice keyboard jingle which makes the logo somber/gloomy at first. After the keyboard stops and the sky and everything else lightens up, we hear a gradual increase of the volume of the orchestrated part which by the end makes a triumphant fanfare sounded out by trumpets and brass.
Availability: Can be found on many Disney movies such as The Three Musketeers (the first film to use this logo), Angels in the Outfield, Heavyweights, Tall Tale, First Kid, RocketMan, and Inspector Gadget, and some Touchstone/Hollywood Pictures films such as Powder, While You Were Sleeping, Angie, Dead Presidents, Metro, and Simon Birch.
