I'm not sure the head with gears is what I had in mind. If you look at other movie studios logo's, they are either bold and traditional (like Warner Bros., Paramount, 20th Century Fox or Columbia) or fanciful like Dream Works, Lucas Arts, or Pixar Animation Studios. Since we are fairly new, I'd prefer images that invoke a sense of imagination and ideation.
#8 & #9 are good, but they lean toward a more traditional (or existing) studios legacy. I do like, however, the wings - nice touch!
Regarding color, please use whatever color arrangement you feel brings out a sense of imagination and ideation.
Thanks and keep up the good work!
