3 Ball Productions

Background
This is J.D. Roth and Todd Nelson's production company, founded in 2001. It was acquired by Eyeworks in 2006. The company was later renamed "3 Ball Entertainment".

1st Logo (October 5, 2002-February 22, 2003?)
Logo: On a blue background with stars, we turn left to find a basketball hoop with a sign that has the 3 Ball Productions logo (a basketball with the number "3" on the right side, the word "BALL" next to it, and the word "PRODUCTIONS" below it). 3 basketballs come in from the right, bottom, and left, and go through the hoop. The last ball hits the logo, making it flash briefly.

FX/SFX: Decent CGI.

Music/Sounds: The end theme of the show.

Availability: Seen on the first season of Endurance.

Editor's Note: None.

2nd Logo (September 13, 2003?-201?)
Logo: On a black background, we see the exact same 3 Ball logo as before, but it's in black and white and has a spotlight gradient on it. The logo zooms in slowly.

Variant: In 2006, an Eyeworks byline was added.

FX/SFX: Just the 3 Ball logo zooming in.

Music/Sounds: Either the end theme of the show, or a basketball bounce followed by 4 high synth notes all over a sustained synth note.

Availability: Much more common than the previous logo. Seen on Endurance and The Biggest Loser among others.

Editor's Note: None.
