Freewheelin' Films

Background
Freewheelin' Films was an American television production company that mostly produced sports-related specials including those relating to racing, skiing, and biking. In 2006, they created a website that showcases stock footage of race cars, aerial views, among others.

Logo (1987-2006?)
Visuals: We slowly zoom out of a background made up of clouds over multiple copies of the company name in a serif, 70's font with a dark shaded color and  outline. The clouds fly out of view, making way for a hot air balloon with four  twirls floating from the bottom left. As the background crossfades to a plain background, one copy of the company name is revealed by the hot air balloon. When it passes by the "n" in "freewheelin'", said letter has an arrow on its right leg and drops a rope, connecting it to the hot air balloon. The latter stops to the right of the logo.

Technique: Cel animation.

Audio: The ending theme of the film, accompanied by a male narrator reading "The preceding has been a production of Freewheelin' Films, Aspen, Colorado".

Audio Variant: On Danny Sullivan: A Man Apart, the voice-over is omitted.

Availability: It was seen on a handful of releases which includes Jeep Jamboree USA, Danny Sullivan: A Man Apart, and Bob Hope: Inside the Ropes. Many of their other specials do not contain a logo at the end. The aforementioned films are also not available through their website as it is only used as a stock footage library.
