Background

Anderson Burr Pictures was formed by Gerry Anderson and Christopher Burr in 1983 for the production of what became Anderson's last marionette series Terrahawks, along with two additional productions before closing in 1987.

Logo (October 3, 1983-1987)

Visuals: Against a space background, there is a spinning tawny wireframe globe. A thin diagonal line appears on the globe, and it turns around and zooms out to reveal the words "AN ANDERSON BURR PICTURE". The globe, still spinning, is shown in place of the "O". It fades out shortly after.

Technique: Early CGI, possibly complex hand-drawn animation.

Audio: An eerie high-pitched synth tune. Sometimes, this had a more triumphant four note theme.

Availability: Seen on Terrahawks, Dick Spanner P.I. and the pilot for Space Precinct.
