Paramount Pictures has recently unveiled a new logo to commemorate the studio’s 100th anniversary in 2012. The logo first appears in front of Brad Bird’s Mission: Impossible — Ghost Protocol, which opened in select theaters last weekend and was released nationwide yesterday. Michael Giacchino has written the music for the logo sequence. Apart from the fourth Mission: Impossible movie, the composer also scored the studio’s J.J. Abrams-directed Super 8 this past year. The new logo will be attached to all movies from the studio throughout 2012 and the plan is that the 100th anniversary portion will be removed with the rest of the logo remaining attached to future Paramount releases after 2012. Check out the full logo sequence after the jump.
