Wilshire Court Productions was a made-for-TV movie production division of Paramount Television (now "CBS Studios") established in 1989 in partnership with the USA Networks that produced TV movies (mostly horror movies) for USA and its sister channel Sci-Fi Channel (now "Syfy") launched in 1992, and later for all the Paramount Global networks. The name of the company comes from Wilshire Court, a side street in Los Angeles.
Visuals: On a black background, two white and green inverted trapezoids formed by five lines that decrease in size slide in from the left and right sides of the screen respectively and stop in the middle, slightly intersecting each other, while the silver text "WILSHIRE COURT P R O D U C T I O N S" zooms beneath the trapezoids.
Variants:
Technique: Computer effects.
Audio: An orchestral string tune mixed with a peaceful piano theme. This was ultimately used only on two 1990 TV movies, Wheels of Terror and Nightmare on the 13th Floor. In most cases, it's the ending theme of the film or it's silent (usually happening when Wilshire Court films reran on Lifetime and LMN).
Audio Variant: The Sightings variant has the tail end of the Sather Gate Productions music.
