Hyperion Pictures

Background
Hyperion Pictures (also known as Hyperion Films, Hyperion Studios or Hyperion Animation) is an American film production and animation company founded by Thomas L. Wilhite and Willard Carroll. Wilhite was previously the vice president of film and television at The Walt Disney Company, and the company name is likely derived from its former Los Angeles location of Hyperion Avenue. The company has produced live-action films and series but is better-known for its animated productions, like The Brave Little Toaster and The Proud Family, produced by the joint-venture Jambalaya Studio. The company is still active, but hasn't produced any new content since 2007.

(October 31, 1993-August 17, 2007)
Logo: On a black background, we see a red rectangle with the word "HYPERION" in gold, and with a dot inside the "O".

Variants:
 * Sometimes, the background is lit up by a spotlight.
 * On the 1998 movie, Playing By Heart, the rectangle is in dark red, and the text is in silver.
 * On The Oz Kids and Itsy Bitsy Spider, the white text "IN ASSOCIATION WITH" fades in underneath.

Technique: None.

Music/Sounds: None, or the closing theme of the show/movie.

Availability: Uncommon. Seen at the end of all three The Brave Little Toaster movies, but only on VHS releases. The DVD release doesn't have it, nor do the pre-1998 releases. Also seen on the 2002 direct-to-video animated film The Adventures of Tom Thumb and Thumbelina. Some TV series, such as Bone Chillers, Life With Louie and Happily Ever After: Fairy Tales for Every Child, also have this logo. This was last seen to date at the end of Marigold.
