Background

Akil Productions is the production company of television writer, producers, and husband-and-wife duo Salim & Mara Brock Akil that was founded in 2000. Prior to 2008, the company was known as "Happy Camper Productions".

Logo (October 3, 2008-May 15, 2009, January 11, 2011-)


Visuals: On a white background, a symbol with a circle with 4 lines on its connection points rotates 90 degrees to the right and the hole in the symbol splits while the text "AKILPRODUCTIONS" fades in. The background turns black, the symbol turns to a white/silver gradient and raises up a little bit, and the text turns white.

Variant: On the 2021 revival of The Game, the logo is extended to have the circle zoom out first, along with the 2 halves of the symbol inside rotate and coming towards each other, before they all interlock. The logo then continues, but ends just before the symbol splits.

Technique: 2D computer animation.
