Blumhouse Productions are known for making low budget movies. A fine example of this is Paranormal Activity (2007) which had a budget of £15,000. This film is the most profitable film ever with a total gross of 193 million dollars. This production company is responsible for such franchises like Insidious (2010), Paranormal Activity (2007) and Sinister (2012). Due to such success there are four Paranormal Activity out and with another two in the making which is still a growing franchise. Although this is a great production company our film would rather use a production company that has produced a zombie film before. The logo what they've used is effective because the background is a mysterious bedroom which appears to have a history. The title is a bold basic font but the colour is what dominates the logo. The reason why is because its an unusual colour and because the colour yellow has connotations of happiness and summer.
