Thanks for the info about Dan Perri! It looks like he designed the logo to be skewed so it could fit at the head of the title crawl (where the film title is placed in Alex Tavoularis’ storyboards). It doesn’t look very practical for that purpose, though, considering the text blocks in the crawl are rectilinear and simply filmed at an angle.

Early test crawls in the eBook versions of Rinzler’s Making of SW have a different logo, but that one is also placed at the start of the crawl. In those versions the (white) logo starts out upright, then folds down to the plane of the crawl and recedes as the text (also white, with fonts varying in different tests) scrolls up.

Also, somebody ought to tell the editors of Dan Perri’s Wikipedia page about Flash Gordon Conquers the Universe.
