Pepper's Ghost Productions: Difference between revisions

This company was apparently dissolved, so updating page to reflect that. Also, as for the second logo, outside of the website, it only appeared on Tiny Planets as far as I know. IMDB says they also helped with the BBC's TV adaptation of Robin Hood, but I've seen the credits for it and they don't use any logo. That's why I used Tiny Planet's run date as the time used. I have also added what time period the still version of the logo was used on the website. |

Background
Pepper's Ghost Productions was an animation and licensing company based in the United Kingdom. It was best known for co-producing the computer-animated educational show Tiny Planets along with Sesame Workshop. The company was apparently dissolved on January 15, 2013.[1]
1st Logo (September 1999-2001)
_160.jpeg)
Logo: To the left of the Children's Television Workshop logo, we see, inside of a green rectangle, an intricately designed purple rectangular speech bubble with a design cut into it that can be interpreted in one of two ways:
- A squinting bearded man with a top hat with a patch on it who is facing the right, and another face smiling and looking at the camera that overlaps the man's eye.
- A strange, smiling and seemingly fuzzy creature with a long, slim neck, a long, curled trunk and a top hat with a patch on it.
Below this design, we see the name of the company:
GHõST
The "H" and "T" rest above two shiny dots.
FX/SFX: None.
Music/Sounds: The closing theme of the pilot.
Availability: Seen on the original pilot for Tiny Planets. This logo was also used on its website and other related material from 1999 to 2001.
Editor's Note: None.
2nd Logo (June 10, 2001-December 21, 2002)
_8.jpeg)
Logo: On a white background, on the right of the Sesame Workshop logo and on top of some purple, smoke-like spots that slowly scroll to the left, the name of the company in the same style as before, in purple blurs in. A minimal starburst effect with purple stars also fades in along with the company logo and rotates around it. A copyright notice is seen below.
Variant: There also exists a still variant, which has just the text. This was used on their now-defunct website from around 2002 until sometime in 2007 or 2008, which was when their site redirected to the main website for the defunct children's MMO, My Tiny Planets.
FX/SFX: All 2D animation.
Music/Sounds: The closing theme of the show.
Availability: Seen on Tiny Planets.
Editor's Note: None.
