Background: World-Northal Corporation, formerly known as Northal Films, was a film company by Albert Schwartz.
(1976-1986)
Nickname: "The AT&T Logo"
Logo: On a black background, we see a circle, being made with yellow lines, which are thick on the left of the circle, and get thinner to the right of the circle, looking like the AT&T logo. Then it zooms out to the left, then once it finishes, "W RLD-NORTHAL CORPORATION PRESENTS" appears. The circle takes place of the "O" in "WORLD". "CORPORATION" is in a much smaller font, and is under the "THAL" part of "NORTHAL". "PRESENTS" is under the circle.
FX/SFX: The circle zooming, the text appearing.
Music/Sounds: A synthesized flute version of Modest Mussorgsky's "Pictures at an Exhibition". Sometimes, as seen on Quadrophenia, the logo is silent.

Music/Sounds Trivia: The music for this logo was sampled on various Wu Tang Clan songs.
Availability: Extremely rare. Was common on English-dubbed versions of various Shaw Brothers productions until they were withdrawn from distribution in 1986. Seen on older prints of The Children before Troma Entertainment acquired distribution rights. Can be seen on the Prism VHS of Sweet William, and the Rhino VHS release of The Last Wave. It also appears on a Hulu stream of the 114 minute U.S version of Quadrophenia, and on the Bonzai Media DVD release of The Hong Kong Connection (titled The Tattoo Connection). This logo may have been plastered by the 1978 WW Entertainment logo on some prints of the studio's films.
