Objective Productions

1st Logo (5 August 1996-2003)

Visuals: On a marble background, there's a logo similar to that of Bright-Kauffman-Crane Productions, but the word reads "Objective", and the red oval has "productions" in a different script font inside.

Variants:

Sometimes, the logo is in a box.
Sometimes, the word "an" is added above and "production" replaces "productions" on the oval.
On Extreme Magic, Extreme Danger, the logo is above the 1996 LWT logo, with the text reading "An Objective/LWT Productions Co Production" which appears below.
On the first season of Peep Show (its first scripted series), the logo is next to the 1999 Channel 4 "Square" logo.
On 13 Keys, it shares the screen with the Crook Productions and Channel 5 logos.
On The Alphabet Game, the full-screen logo has the 1988 BBC logo underneath and flies from the left.

Technique: A still, digital graphic.

2nd Logo (5 October 2003-2016)

Visuals: Over a dark green or black background, there's the same text "OBJECTIVE PRODUCTIONS" now in a weird different font.

Both a superimposed and split-screen variant exists.
A different background may be used on some shows.
For shows that were produced in Scotland, the word "SCOTLAND" replaces "PRODUCTIONS".
Sometimes, this logo shares the screen with other logos.
An early variant has the logo squished.
Starting in 2014, a different animation is used. Here, some blue and red spotlights with sparkles form the word "OBJECTIVE" and then, the text "PRODUCTIONS" appears forming one letter at a time with the All3Media byline animated as well. Finally, the whole logo shines.
On shows produced in the United States, the word "USA" appears next to "PRODUCTIONS".

Technique: 2D animation.

Audio: Usually the ending theme of the show.
