Fauxgo: Precrime

Purpose

Purpose:

I dedicate this blog to gather and share fictional logos mainly from movies. As a graphic designer and science fiction movies lover i find many of them very innovative. Fauxgo was a term coined by designer Tim Armstrong as “symbol or design detail created to represent a fiction company or organization that only exists in movies”. Armstrong affirms that a good ‘Fauxgo’ can help improve the credibility of a movie and become the icon of a movie.

I greatly surprised that some of these logos have jumped to the real world as companies or are inspiration for people to create their own companies or design new logos as you will note in posts.

Due the Armstrong’s fauxgo site is no longer available online i decided to relieve him and share my compilation with you! Feel free to comment about the movies, the companies or about the logos. You can also contribute by mentioning old or new companies in movies or TV series. Thanks for reading ^ _ ^.

Precrime

Featured in: Minority Report (2002)

Precrime is the name of a Washington D.C. prototype police department whose task is to identify and arrest people who will commit crimes in the future. The operation of the agency is based on the existence of "precognitive mutants", a trio of quasi-vegetative beings whose visualizations are incoherent are analyzed by a computer. Precrimen manages to reduce crime to zero which promotes the federal government to adopt the controversial program nationwide.

This agency appears originally on the short science fiction story of Philip K. Dick written in 1956 and called "The Minority Report."
