A Bird and a Bear Entertainment

From the Audiovisual Identity Database, the motion graphics museum


Background

This is the production company of actor and comedian, Cedric the Entertainer.

1st Logo (July 15, 2006)

Visuals: On a gray cloudy background, there is a 3D model of a bear paw close-up around a rectangle, illuminated in darkness with the text "A BIRD AND A BEAR" with "ENTERTAINMENT" inside a black rectangle underneath, both in a serif font and glowing with gold spotlights throughout behind. The logo then fully lights up with the bear paw in metallic gold and the text in white as the spotlights slowly shine on the logo.

Technique: CGI.

Audio: The closing theme.

Availability: This was seen on Cedric the Entertainer: Taking You Higher, which aired on HBO.

2nd Logo (2009-)


Visuals: On a black background, there is the bear paw symbol from before, now in metallic silver with smoke behind surrounding it. The company name appears from a trail-like effect as it settles in its position; while the symbol glows more brighter and the smoke disappears.

Variants:

  • A still version exists.
  • A shorter version exists where it cuts out the trail effect of the text.
  • There is a alternate version where the logo looks much cheaper and has a spotlight behind it, sometimes absent.
  • It sometimes shares the screen with other logos.

Technique: CGI.

Audio: A jungle music with a bear growling.

Audio Variants:

  • Sometimes, the closing theme plays over or none.
  • Sometimes, the growling noise is replaced by the whoosh sound.

Availability: First seen on the failed pilot of Cedric and later seen on The Soul Man, The Comedy Get Down, The Neighborhood, The Greatest #AtHome Videos, Cedric The Entertainer: Live from the Ville and Johnson.
