Vision Scape Interactive

(2001-2005)
Logo: On a black background, there is a freaky clown standing in a spotlight, thinking about something. He gets an idea and gets a green balloon, which he blows up and makes a balloon dog. He drops the dog, which for some reason becomes alive, and gets a red balloon which he also blows up and he makes a balloon rabbit. He drops the rabbit, which also becomes alive, and gets a blue balloon. He then makes it into a abstract eye symbol, with 3 large eyelashes. We zoom into it as "Vision Scape Interactive" appears with blur effects below as the clown is defocused by the camera.

Trivia: The clown is the mascot of the cancelled skateboarding game Circus Rejects.

Technique: The clown making the balloons, the text blurring in. Good animation by the standards of an early 2000s video game logo.

Music/Sounds: A slightly melancholy, horn section circus theme with sounds corresponding to the animation, the balloon dog barking, and the clown chuckling at the end of the logo.

Availability: Extremely rare. Seen on SeaBlade, The Land Before Time: Great Valley Racing Adventure and X-Bladez Inline Skater. It also appears on the unreleased Xbox prototype of the cancelled game Circus Rejects.

Legacy: This logo is far too creepy for the children's games it appeared on.
