Background

Chauncey Street Productions was the production company of Fred Seibert, Alan Goodman, and Albie Hecht founded in 1988. The company was an offshoot of Seibert and Goodman's advertising agency Fred/Alan, established in 1983, which worked for MTV, VH1, Nickelodeon, Lifetime, KPXM, HA! TV Comedy Network, and Comedy Central. After Fred/Alan closed in 1992, Hecht took over Seibert and Goodman's stakes in Chauncey Street Productions.

1st Logo (September 10, 1988-1997)


Visuals: On a background of blue-gray diagonal stripes is a city skyline with an orange-red gradient sky, bordered by a blue-gray frame with a shadow on the background. A large white sun emerges from the skyline. Then from the top right, the text "Chauncey Street Productions, Inc." spins and zooms in and places itself on the sun.

Variants:

  • On early Kids' Choice Awards, the logo appears superimposed in black and white. The frame looks like TV static instead of a solid border, and there is a large outline under the sun.
  • On Kids' Court, instead of the text spinning, it flies down to the sun. Also, the copyright stamp from the show's credits is present on the logo.
  • On The Movie Masters, it has the variant above, but the logo is in black and white and has no copyright stamp.

Technique: Computer animation.

Audio: A crumbling noise over the closing theme. On Kids' Court and The Movie Masters, there is no crumbling noise. The latter TV show also had a voiceover, where Peter Pratt says "This is a Chauncey Street production."

Availability: Seen on Nickelodeon GUTS, Global GUTS, Talent Pool, Kids' Court, U to U, The Movie Masters and early Kids' Choice Awards.

2nd Logo (December 23, 2011)


Visuals: Essentially a still version of the previous logo where the frame is absent, along with the sky being blue and the sun being yellow.

Technique: A still, digital graphic.

Audio: The closing theme.

Availability: Only seen on Wait Wait... Don't Tell Me!: A Royal Pain in the News.
