Peacock Productions was the documentary division of the NBC News division of NBCUniversal News Group, formed on July 15, 2007. The studio was shut down on March 2, 2020, with NBC News citing changes to its strategies on documentaries.
Visuals: Several yellow and white NBC peacock feathers (which has the 1943 NBC logo on it) fall down over a black background, as a white stripe descends from the top. As this happens, another yellow feather comes in from the right of the screen, and curves around a larger yellow feather on the bottom of the screen and lands on the white half of the screen, and the rest of the peacock appears from the feather (the remaining five feathers are also yellow). The white half has also revealed the word "PEACOCK" in Bank Gothic, and another yellow feather curves around the one on the bottom half to reveal "PRODUCTIONS", also in Bank Gothic. By the end of the logo, "NBC" is passing through the white half, and "PEACOCK" is passing through the large yellow feather in the black half. The whole thing is seen through a "vignette" perspective.
Variants:
Technique: CGI.
Audio: The same music from the NBCUniversal logo.
