The 1904 logo
Background[]
Drako Films is a fanmade company in San Antonio, Texas that started in 1898. there was no logo until 1904. This small company was a success on making movies for over 127 years. The best one of their movies was "Everyone's Loves and Hates" From 2015. at a 9.9 rating on IMDB. the company went defunct on April 19, 2025, after finding out they were suddenly bankrupt.
Logo[]
1st logo (1904-1912)
We see a extreme close up of a red dragon's face (which is dark grey due to lack of color) with the text "DRAKO FILMS" Below its closed eyes. suddenly it opens its eyes which are yellow and have predatory look on its pupils (again, are light grey due to lack of color). it shows us its open eyes for 8 seconds, until it closes its eyes. then it cuts to black.
Variant[]
- There is a color variant that exists when color was first invented on tv.
2nd logo (1913-1919)
On a black background, we see a purple poorly drawn dragon flying by the screen. the dragon lands on the scrambled version of the name: "ARDOK". it organizes the words the make it spell "DRAKO" and the "D" transforms into a weird creature. the logo then cuts (possibly most of the video is not complete).
3rd logo:
(1920-1958)
On a sky blue background, We see a dragon fly by and he breathes fire. then, the fire forms: "DRAKO FILMS INC."
4th Logo:
(1960-1994: 2022)
We see a Cartoon girl in pigtails and a green fanny pack crying for help as her cat is stuck on a tree. the camera pans up, a Cartoon dragon with Layer is shown flying to save the day. he grabs the cat and gives it to the girl. then the screen transitions to a mother holding a crying baby. the same dragon feeds the baby a bottle of milk and the baby stops crying. the screen transitions to a house on fire. the dragon grabs a huge bucket of water and throws at the burning house. then, the dragon files up, and breaths out the words, "DRAKO FILMS". the dragon does a thumbs up, and the logo fades to black.
5th Logo:
(1994-2003)
On a pink background, we see a cartoon dragon fly by. he suddenly gets WAY too close to the camera and cracks it. the text "DRAKO FILMS" appear and the dragon coughs.
6th Logo:
(2004-2008)
this logo has 2 versions.
- (2004-2006, 2008) we see the dragon face from the first logo but it looks WAY WORSE THAN BEFORE. It now has bloodshot eyes and bloody teeth. the text: "This is...." however, 1 second later it disappears, then the text, "D R A K O F I L M" and the text, :100 years of films. and fades out. the logo then cuts to black.
- (2007): On a city background, we see a hero dragon fly towards the city for a few seconds and then stops. he breaths out fire, we spells out, :100 YEARS OF DRAKO", then it transitions to people who are cheering at the dragon.
7th Logo
(2009-2014)
We see a man doing the train dance on a dance floor with the text "DRAKO FILMS" under bim. a creepy looking dragon picks him up and files away with him and the logo cuts to black.
8th Logo:
(2016-2025)
On a pastel blue background, We see the text "DRAKO FILMS" In comic sans. the dragons face fades in.
9th Logo
(2019-2025)
On a black background, we just see the text, DRAKO FILMS in the jurassic park font.
10th Logo
(2023-2025)
On a black background, we see a dragon holding a newspaper, walking. he bumps into a line, he picks himself up and looks at the line, the line is the "D" and runs to the "S". it zooms out to see the whole text, "DRAKO FILMS". The text sines, the dragon looks at the viewers in interest. it then fades to black.
- There is also a special variant on its final movie where on a black screen, it says "DRAKO FILMS" and at the bottom it says "TO ANY OF YOU PEOPLE WATCHING THIS FILM, DRAKO FILMS WILL BE GONE SOON. THANKS FOR 127 YEARS OF DRAGONS AND DRAKOS FUN. 1898-2025.

Scare Factor[]
1st Logo: it depends
- Original: High to nightmare. it has scared many people due to the lack of color, the creepy dragon face, the silence, and the eyes. the scare factor could raise if you have Scopophobia (fear of being watched). apart from those, nothing really memorable.
- Color Version: Medium to high due to the face still being creepy along with the silence. however, the color makes it less scarier.
2nd Logo: Low to high (bordering on Nightmare). it's less scarier, but the "D" transforming into a weird creature and the cheesy tune can scare some.
3rd logo: Low. it's better than the last 2 logos.
4th Logo: Medium. as the dramatic music may not fit well with this.
5th Logo: Minimal to medium. the cartoon dragon could scare some. but the scare factor again, rases with the next logo.
6th Logo: it depends
- (2004-2006, 2008): Nightmare. the dragon from the 1st logo is very scary, the silence makes it more worse! along with the infamous black background.
- (2007): Minimal. it's way better than the previous one.
7th Logo: Medium to high. the creepy looking dragon is bound to scare some.
8th Logo: Same as the 5th logo, as the dragon head can scare some people.
9th logo: None. this logo is very boring compared to the previous ones.
10th logo: Minimal, This is a small glow up, because of the funny animation.
