Background

Watchmaker Productions is a defunct Birmingham-based production company that was operated as a subsidiary of Chrysalis Television, formed by author Clive James in 1994. It was later absorbed into Chrysalis Entertainment in 2001.

1st Logo (December 31, 1994)

Logo: On a white background, we see a circular "W" in orange with a purple camera-like light on top with a camera-like outline behind it. The "W" circle shines behind it and then the text "A WATCHMAKER PRODUCTION for" in a Futura font fades in, with the blue 1988 BBC logo on the bottom, and a copyright stamp below.

Technique: The circle shining.

Variants:

  • From 1995 to 1998, below the Chrysalis logo is a byline reading "A Chrysalis Company".
  • From 1998 to 2000, below the Chrysalis logo is a byline reading "Chrysalis". The background is also white, and the text above the Chrysalis logo is in black.
  • It sometimes shares the screen with other logos.
