Echo Bridge Acquisition Corp.

Background
Echo Bridge Entertainment is an American independent distribution company, formed on February 11, 2004 by Lucie Salhany, Michael Rosenblatt, Michael Alexander and Doug Hamilton. On February 7, 2005, Echo Bridge merged with Platinum Disc Corporation to form Echo Bridge Home Entertainment. They are one of the largest video distributors in the United States, with over 11,000 titles in their portfolio. In 2017, producer Steven Paul (who also founded Crystal Sky Pictures) purchased Echo Bridge Home Entertainment. Around the same time (possibly around 2016), its name was changed to Echo Bridge Acquisition Corp LLC.

Background Trivia: The company derives its name from the Echo Bridge in Needham, Massachusetts, the town where it is based.

(2005-2016?)

Videos= Logo: On a blue sky background with birds flying, there is a creek between land with green grass and fall trees. The camera eases back to reveal a light brown brick bridge with black rails. It eases back again to reveal it is in a box on a black background with "Times New Roman" on top and "Times New Roman" or "Times New Roman" on bottom. The words shimmer. Starting in 2007, the logo eases back and disappears, and then the words: THE ENTERTAINMENT ALTERNATIVE

FOR WHAT THE WORLD WANTS TO SEE

appear and ease back a bit. The lines appear one by one.

Trivia: The design of the bridge in this logo is based on the aforementioned Echo Bridge.

Variant:
 * At the end of programs, the company name doesn't shimmer and the lines appear all at once rather then one at a time.
 * Sometimes, the company name merely reads "Times New Roman" and the ending notice does not appear.
 * On some episodes of Degrassi: The Next Generation, the "ENTERTAINMENT" variant is cut to its last seconds.

Technique: CGI animation.

Music/Sounds: Birds chirping and a short piano tune with a small whoosh at the end.

Availability: Common. Seen on DVD releases from the company, which can be seen in bargain bins at stores such as Walmart or Best Buy.

(2016?-early 2020's?)
Logo: On a black background, we see a white simplified version of the bridge from before. Above it is the text "ECHO BRIDGE" with "ACQUISITION CORP, LLC" below it.

Technique: None.

Music/Sounds: Same as the first Echo Bridge logo.

Availability: Was first spotted on a DVD release of Abraxas: Guardian of the Universe.

Final Note
Starting in the early 2020's, the Echo Bridge logo was replaced by the SP Distribution logo. However, as of now, the Echo Bridge print logo can still be seen on their releases.
