Open Mind Productions

(1993-2009)

Nickname: "The Blue Head"

Logo: On a customized or black background, we see a blue head, with it's top being seperated from the rest of the head. In between the head are the words "OPEN" and "MIND". Under them is the word "PRODUCTIONS".

Variants:

• An early version exists where text "An Open Mind Production" is seen below the head.
• There is a version where the word "An" is seen on the top of the head and the text under the head and below it now reads "PRODUCTION".

FX/SFX: None. The appearing-pieces transition for The Number Crew variant. The cross-fades from the credits for the Numberjacks variant.

Music/Sounds: The ending theme of the show.

Music/Sound Variants:

• On some episodes of The Shiny Show, it's silent (because the full closing theme plays only on the show's credits and then a short sequence from the show came before the logo appears).
  • On the season 1 episode "Fire Station", the fire engine sound was heard during the closing theme.
  • On the season 1 episode "Fun in the Fair" the funfair music plays throughout the credits.
  • On the season 2 episode "Cheesemaking", the last part of the closing theme plays after the sequence that interrupts the credits (similar to "Hairdressers").
  • On Polish prints of the latter, there is a Polish voice-over after the closing theme.
• On Ready Set Learn, the announcer was heard while the instrumental version of The Paz Show theme plays.
• On the Numberjacks season 2 episode "Counting Down to Christmas", an ominous bell note plays over the closing theme's last note.

Availability: Appears on The Number Crew, Rat-A-Tat-Tat, The Word Machine, Maths Mansion, The Shiny Show, Paz and Numberjacks.

Editors Note: None.
