This is my sandbox. Here, I can make pages for mainspace without having to make draft articles (alternatively, I can import contents from here into draft pages as well).

79th & York Entertainment


Background

This is an American television production company. It also ran a division known as 51st East Entertainment.

Logo (September 23, 2013-February 29, 2020)


Visuals: The camera quickly zooms in on a train quickly traveling with a motion blur effect in a subway. As the camera passes the train, a sign is shown on a grided tile wall. It is black and has the following words on it:

79th & York
ENTERTAINMENT

The sign also has a white line near the top. Next to "79th & York", there are two red circles with "2" and "3" respectively. Four circles are next to "ENTERTAINMENT":

  • A red one with "R" on it.
  • A green one with "D" on it.
  • A blue one with "M".
  • A yellow one with "J" on it. Unlike all the other circles, the "J" is black.

Next to the circles, another white line divides the sign, leaving a square. The square has an arrow pointing to the top-right. In the background, there is a floor, two pillars, and some lights on the ceiling. The camera slows to a stop as it approaches the sign. Some lights shine from behind the wall and on the sign.

Variant: On Couples Court with the Cutlers, the company name is instead "51st East ENTERTAINMENT".

Technique: CGI.

Audio: The sound of a train quickly going through tracks, what sounds like a train whistle and a gunshot-like sound.

Availability: Seen on Lauren Lake's Paternity Court and Couples Court with the Cutlers.

NFL Productions Copyright Bumper

Background

This bumper is used by the National Football League for its televised games.

Bumper (September 2019-)

Visuals: The bumper starts with archive footage of a Kansas City Chiefs player running with a football, leaving a trail. Then, the camera zoom-cuts to a further angle as we see:

  • A player from a unknown team (likely the Cleveland Browns) running and avoiding a opposing player.
  • A Chicago Bears player running while holding a football.
  • A player likely from the Las Vegas Raiders running.
  • A player likely from the Minnesota Vikings running and getting "grabbed," for lack of a better term.
  • A Philadelphia Eagles(?) player being held by a opposing player and spinning away from him.
  • A Los Angeles Chargers player running and avoiding a opposing player who tries to grab him.
  • A player (either from the New England Patriots or the Buffalo Bills) running to the left.
  • A Miami Dolphins player dodging opposing players.
  • A Dallas Cowboys player running while avoiding multiple opposing players.
  • Finally, a New York Jets player running as the opponents disappear.

Each of the players change in different ways. When the fourth player appears, the following words appears below:

BROADCAST ©[YEAR] NFL PRODUCTIONS LLC. ALL RIGHTS RESERVED.

A gold outline of the NFL shield appears as the copyright notice disappears and the footage glitches out, turning the background black. The NFL logo glitches in and transforms through glitching effects into older NFL logos while zooming out until it stops with the current logo in its regular color scheme of red, white and blue.

Variants:

  • For its first season (2019-2020), at the end, the bumper cuts to a gold NFL100 logo.
  • Starting in 2023, the final glitching effects are slower.

Technique: Live-action and CGI.

Audio: Some percussion ending with static sound effects as a male announcer says the following: "This broadcast is copyrighted by NFL Productions for the private use of our audience. Any other use of this broadcast or any pictures, descriptions or accounts of the game without the consent of NFL Productions is prohibited."

Audio Variant: The 2023 variant removes the static sounds at the end, replacing them with a "ding" and a held-out note.

Availability: Seen on all televised NFL games since September 2019. On CBS, it is typically played during the third quarter, while all other networks play it before the third quarter.

Audio: Unknown

Cerveza Cristal

Background

Registered in 1977 and launched commercially in 1978, Cerveza Cristal is a Chilean brand of pilsner beer sold by Compañía de Cervecerías Unidas (CCU). It was originally known as Pilsener Cristal; its current name was introduced in 1993, along with the motto "Única, Grande y Nuestra". The brand has become best-known for a series of television commercials known as The Force is with Cristal Beer (La Fuerza está con Cerveza Cristal), which were inserted into broadcasts of the original Star Wars trilogy on Canal 13 in December 2003; the commercials were inserted in such a way that they appeared to be continuations of scenes from the films. The campaign became an internet meme in March 2024 after video clips of the original commercials were posted online[1] and has led to parody edits into other movies and media, usually within intense scenes. A similar ad campaign, Breaking Zapping (Rompiendo el Zapping), was used between February and March 2004, with new commercials inserted as continuations of scenes during the broadcasts of six other films broadcast on Canal 13.

Tag (December 2003-March 2004)

Visuals: Inserted into the end of the commercials, the then-current Cerveza Cristal logo fades in. It consists of a green circle with "C E R V E Z A" in an arc on top and a yellow ribbon with "CRISTAL", in black, near the bottom. At the bottom, there is "CCU". The logo slowly zooms in while the background blurs.

Variant:

  • On the commercials in the Force is with Cristal Beer campaign, the background fades out after a few seconds, leaving just the logo on a black background.
    • The timing of the logo's appearance varies. For instance, on one of the commercials in the Force is with Cristal Beer campaign, the logo fades in as the chanting in the jingle ends. On the two Breaking Zapping commercials that have been found thus far, the logo fades in after the second uttering of the brand's name.

Technique: 2D computer animation.

Audio: The brand's characteristic jingle. It begins with a held-out electric guitar note and a man with a slight accent saying "¡CERVEZA CRI-I-I-I-ISTAL!" This is followed by a short medley played on the electric guitar accompanied by unintelligible chanting from a group of men and women. After the chanting ends, the man says "¡CERVEZA CRISTAL!" Finally, another held-out electric guitar note plays and fades out. The jingle begins over the actual commercial before the tag even begins.

Audio Variant: On at least the commercials in the Force is with Cristal Beer campaign featuring a can of the beer, the jingle fades in at the chanting.

Availability: This was attached to the end of the Force is with Cristal Beer and Breaking Zapping commercials. Four full-length commercials from the Force is with Cristal Beer campaign (two inserted into Star Wars Episode IV: A New Hope, one inserted into Star Wars Episode V: The Empire Strikes Back, and one inserted into Star Wars Episode VI: Return of the Jedi; a fifth commercial, also inserted into A New Hope, does exist but hasn't been found in its entirely) have been uncovered, as were two commercials from the Breaking Zapping campaign (respectively inserted into The Wedding Singer and As Good as It Gets; the other movies included in the campaign were Never Been Kissed, Notting Hill, American Beauty and Gladiator).
