Visuals: On a black background, there is a vertical-aligned stick with a wing spreaded at the top with two snakes intersecting each other at the center of the stick. A filmstrip that reads "FOTORAMA" in sans-serif typeface is seen at the front of it. There is "AARHUS" in inverted arc format underneath it.
Variants:
- In Elverhøj, an in-credit version of the logo is used, where a tiny print version of the logo is seen below the film's credits.
- In Haandværkerdagen i Viborg 1916, the logo appears in a blue tint.
- In Indvielsen af Aarhus Universitet 1933, the filmstrip is more loose in both ends, and the text reads "AS FOTORAMA", with "A" and "S" being stacked. This version also has a text over it, saying "⅍ F O T O R A M A", which is put on the top of the white word "viser".
Technique: A still printed image.
