FanFare Productions

Background
FanFare Productions is the production company of the late Jamie Tarses, a television producer and studio executive who served as the president of ABC from 1996 to 1999, the first woman and one of the youngest people to hold such a post in an American broadcast network. Her brother Matt, also owns a production company, Two Soups Productions. Tarses had a stroke in the fall of 2020, spent time in a coma and died in Los Angeles on February 1, 2021, at age 56, from what a family spokesperson called "complications of a cardiac event". On January 12, 2022, it was announced that the company would carry on by being run by Tarses' executive McCrae Dunlap (who had previously steered the company while Tarses was hospitalized and following her death) with Kapital Entertainment and the support of Tarses’ family taking stake.

Logo: On a background with a carpet texture, we see a bordered photo of a castle to the left. Then, a trumpet comes out with a flag on it, which reads "FANFARE" on it.

Variants:
 * Sometimes, the logo is still.
 * On season 3 of Happy Endings and Champaign ILL, the logo is next to the Shark vs. Bear logo.
 * On Marry Me, the logo is next to the Exhibit A logo.
 * On The Wilds, the logo is next to the Dylan Clark Productions logo.
 * On The Mayor, the logo is next to the Fee-Fi-Fo Films logo.
 * On the short-lived series Mr. Sunshine, an in-credit version with Barnow & Firek and Shoe Money Productions is used.

FX/SFX: The trumpet and the flag popping out. This was done by Chargefield.

Music/Sounds: The sound of a kid mocking a "Ta-da!" and as he says it, a short "Ta-da!" tune is played at the same time. Sometimes, the closing theme is used instead or it's silent.

Availability: Common. It was seen on shows that were produced by Tarses in her lifetime, with Hawthorne being the first show to use this logo. It also appears on Mad Love, Happy Endings, Franklin & Bash, Men at Work, Made in Jersey, Marry Me, Your Family or Mine, The Mayor, Champaign ILL, and The Wilds. The in-credit version appears on Mr. Sunshine. It's expected to appear on upcoming shows from the company in honor of the late Tarses.

Editor's Note: None.
