Logo: Over a cumulonimbus cloud setting, a superimposed WB shield design zooms in to the screen. Nicknames: 'Zooming Shield', 'Zooming WB Shield' building on the top of it, and is therefore the more recognizable version of the shield.ДЈrd Logo (July 21, 1934-December 18, 1937) logo.ДЄvailability: It's preserved on any film from Warner Bros from this era, including pre-1999 video releases by Magnetic Video, CBS/FOX Video, and MGM/UA Home Video.Д®ditor's Note: This logo would mark the first appearance of the shield without the Warner Bros.

Also, on some features, only a very big banner saying 'VITAPHONE', was shown, omitting the First National or the Warner Bros. Trivia: The First National Company also used this logo, but modified with the words 'FIRST NATIONAL' instead of 'WARNER BROS.

A colorized version exists, in which the logo (the text, the flag, and the shield) are colored yellow and appear on a blue BG.

The closing variation has 'The End' instead of 'Present'.

Variant: On some films, the NRA logo is shown on the bottom right. On the first one, 'WARNER BROS' appears, followed by the electric-letter 'VITAPHONE' logo and below that, 'PICTURES'. Behind it there is the drawing of a flag, 'waving' so it looks like it is in three sections. Below that is a very small WB shield (using the stylised WB seen in the 1st logo), and in script, ' Present'. Logo: The words 'WARNER BROS PICTURES, Inc.' appear, and below that ' & THE VITAPHONE CORP.' appears in a much smaller font, with the 'VITAPHONE' using 'electric' style letters. Nicknames: 'Vitaphone Shield', 'Shield and Flag' However, the addition of the WB Studios inside the shield wouldn't be referenced again until the 1998 logo.Дўnd Logo (November 7, 1929-August 29, 1936) Music/Sounds: None or the film's opening theme.Д®ditor's Note: The first design of the WB shield, it's noted by modern viewers for having a strange look to it. On The Jazz Singer (1927), it was superimposed on a marble-like BG.

2nd Closing Title: The second variant is the one you see in the 3rd photo.

Above the books, we see the 'The End' in a small, fancy white script arched above a small 'A WARNER BROTHERS 'CLASSIC of the SCREEN'' text. For example, Beau Brummel (1924) had a BG with some books and two candles on both sides of the screen. But on some movies, the WB shield was omitted. Below the shield, we see 'A WARNER BROTHERS CLASSIC OF THE SCREEN' in big capital letters. The 'T' on 'THE' and the 'E' on 'END' are bigger than the other letters.

1st Closing Title: We see the words ' THE END' all in capitals on both sides of the WB shield, with ' THE' on the left and ' END' on the right.

Starting in 1926, 'CLASSIC of the SCREEN' changed to 'PRODUCTION'.Д¬losing Titles: There are two closing titles for this WB era: 'a WARNER BROTHERS' is above the shield (with 'WARNER BROTHERS' in an arc around the shield, a la the first Columbia logo), with 'CLASSIC of the SCREEN' below. The top part of the shield shows a picture of the Warner studio in Burbank CA, the bottom having a squashed, stylised 'WB'. Logo: On a black background, a large, bizarrely shaped shield is seen, with a very wide top.

Nicknames: 'Brain Shield', 'Studio Shield', 'Brain WB Shield', 'The Early Shield'
