Sonnenfeld Josephson Worldwide Entertainment/Summary

Background : This is Barry Sonnenfeld and Barry Josephson's production company.

(August 4, 1998-April 5, 2002)

Logo : We zoom out from a counting-down screen to a field with a blue sky above and a tree line far away. Then we keep zooming out to the faces of the company's co-founders shown in the left and right halves of the edge. The countdown screen goes to 2 and switches off, and some paper litter rolls the field, as we zoom out on a white background to see the text "Sonnenfeld", near the top left corner of the scene (now enclosed in a box), "Josephson" at the bottom right edge of the logo, and "worldwide entertainment" below.

Variants : On movies with this logo, the logo is slowed down, showing the complete countdown animation and the ending scene is inverted.

FX/SFX : The animated countdown, clouds and paper.

Music/Sounds : A 3-note guitar tune combined with ticking and a sudden beep. The movie version is silent. Original ABC airings of Fantasy Island used a generic theme. On The Crew, the opening theme plays over the logo.

Availability : The TV version appeared on Maximum Bob with an In Association With tagline, the 1998 revival of Fantasy Island, Secret Agent Man and the 2001 version of The Tick. The movie version appeared on The Crew and at the end of Big Trouble.

Editor's Note : None.
