Background
This is Michael Mann's production company.
(September 16, 1984-January 25, 1990)
Nickname: "Flashing Shapes"
Logo: On a black background, we see the text "MICHAEL MANN" in an odd, stylized font, with "a" and "production" above and below it in a smaller, less stylized font. Behind it, two screens both with odd neon-colored shapes on them flash multiple times. The first shows a fence-looking door with a blue squiggle to the right, and the second shows a row of lines arranged like a rectangle and a weird "splotch" thing. They eventually stop flashing, landing on the second screen.
Variants:
- On early episodes of Miami Vice, the animation is slower with different shapes appearing. It's also very poorly filmed, as it shakes a lot and looks like it was filmed with a cheap camcorder.
- On the second episode of Miami Vice, there is an in-credit card for "The Michael Mann Co., Inc."; such is depicted above.
FX/SFX: The flashing, which is actually in sync with the last notes of the Miami Vice theme.
Music/Sounds: The closing theme of the show.
Availability: Seen on Miami Vice and Crime Story.
