Endemol Shine Group

From the Audiovisual Identity Database, the motion graphics museum



Background

Endemol Shine Group was formed as a joint venture between 21st Century Fox and Apollo Global to combine together their studios, Shine Group and Endemol, respectively. The merger was announced on 15 May 2014 and was completed in December 2014. With the purchase of 21st Century Fox's assets by The Walt Disney Company in 2019, Endemol Shine became co-owned by Disney.

The venture was later acquired by Banijay Group in July 2020, with the international unit being folded into the company to create a more expanded Banijay Rights. Despite the original venture no longer existing, many of the former divisions still retain the Endemol Shine name.



1st Logo (2014-2018)

Variants:

  • There is a variant for each country as per the Endemol and Shine Group logos (i.e. "ENDEMOL SHINE AUSTRALIA" for Australia, "ENDEMOL SHINE NORTH AMERICA" for North America, "ENDEMOL SHINE TURKEY" for Turkey, etc.).
  • A still version exists.
  • For the Turkey version, the logo is a bit brighter.

Technique: CGI animation.

Music/Sounds: A short wind and a heavenly xylophone tune, or a dramatic tune with clanking sounds.

Music/Sounds Variants:

  • Sometimes, the closing theme plays over.
  • On original airings of Big Brother, a CBS generic theme plays over.

Availability: No longer current.

  • The regular version appears on 2014-2017 episodes of MasterChef around the globe, replacing both the Shine Group or Shine International logos.

Variants:

  • Sometimes, it uses a black background with white text instead.
  • There is a variant for each country as per the last logo (i.e. "EndemolShine NorthAmerica" for North America, etc.).
  • Endemol Shine Australia uses its own version. We see close-ups of "ES" drawing themselves in and turning grey, then we cut to a shot of the final logo, the words "EndemolShine Australia" sliding in in a similar manner to the above, but in CGI.
  • A long version of the above logo, which is animated slightly differently, exists for the long version of the Endemol Shine India logo.
  • An extended variant of this logo exists as well, where the text slowly zooms in after its animation completes.

    • There is another in-credit variant with the text "EndemolShineGroup" at the centre. This was spotted on the final episode of Domingão do Faustão (where The Voice Brasil host Tiago Leifert took over Fausto Silva's hosting duties for the only time), which aired on Globo from June 13, 2021.
  • On MasterChef Australia, starting with the eighth season, the copyright stamp appears below "EndemolShine Australia".
  • Sometimes, the Banijay byline is used.

Technique: 2D animation. The Australia and India versions use CGI.

Music/Sounds: Normally it's a mechanical-sounding electronic tune.

Music/Sounds Variants:

  • On some variants, it's either a majestic fanfare (long variant of the Endemol Shine India logo), the sounder from the Shine Australia logo (Australia version), or a shining sound with a synth note (Latino variant).
  • Sometimes, the logo has the music from the 2021 Banijay logo, the end theme of the show play over, or none.
