Background

World Events Productions is an American-based animation and distribution company in St. Louis, Missouri, best known for releasing the anime titles Voltron: Defender of the Universe and Saber Rider and the Star Sheriffs, as well as producing the original animated series Denver, the Last Dinosaur. It also had a subsidiary, Calico Entertainment.



1st Logo (September 10, 1984-September 2, 1988)


Visuals: Against a globe, and in a white "Arabian"/I Dream of Jeannie font, are the words "WORLD EVENTS PRODUCTIONS, LTD." with a copyright underneath.

Technique: A still graphic.

Audio: On Voltron, it's an ominous tune. On Saber Rider and the Star Sheriffs, it's the closing theme of the show.

Availability: It was last seen on Voltron on Boomerang and Sony Crackle (followed by the 2005 High Tone Sony Pictures Television logo) as well on Saber Rider and the Star Sheriffs.

2nd Logo (September 12, 1988-1989)


Visuals: On the same background as the first Calico Entertainment logo is the text:

A

The logo shines for a bit.

Variant: See Calico Entertainment.

Technique: Computer effects.

Audio: The ending theme of the show.

Availability: It was seen on Denver, the Last Dinosaur and Vytor: The Starfire Champion, which are both on DVD.

3rd Logo (September 12, 1998-February 19, 2000)


Visuals: Superimposed in the closing credits, Voltron/GoLion swings his sword, causing a futuristic-looking "W" to flash in, followed by an "E" in the same style. The words "visit Voltronforce.com" fade in above, and "A division of Koplar Communications International" is displayed below. The logo flashes once more, and the camera zooms in.

Visuals: Light shining of the sword that the Voltron swings is being portrayed as the revealing light in this logo, as the Voltron makes its pose. The logo zooms out to reveal "wep" in a rounded font. "world events productions" is below it in a lowercase font.

Technique: 2D computer animation.

Audio: Same as the 1st logo.
