Paramount Pictures

1914-1917
The Paramount label first materialized in 1914 during its early years as a distribution company. Paramount later merged with Adolph Zukor's Famous Players Film Company (which was founded in 1912).

1995–2009


In 1994, Paramount was purchased by Viacom International, as noted on their updated byline in that company's corporate font.

2009–2011


In 2009, Paramount slightly updated their logo with the byline written in the new Viacom font. An on-screen variant debuted the following year. In 2013, the daytime background launched the Paramount logo.

2011–present


As Paramount Pictures celebrate their 100th anniversary since 1912, their logo was updated, using a new look for the mountain, and switching the background to daytime. This logo was unveiled on December 14, 2011. On February 1, 2013, the 100 years will be removed from it.
