Background
Nippers was an imprint of the Contender Entertainment Group that released products aimed at a pre-school audience. The imprint was discontinued in 2004.
1st Logo (1999-2001)
.jpg)
Visuals: On a white background, a cream piece of lined paper pans to the middle of the screen. A pencil writes the word "Nippers" in red, with 2 lines between the "ip" and "er". After it writes, the pencil faces the the 2 "p"s and the writing part of the pencil side sparkles and freezes. A black registered trademark symbol appears on top of the "s".
Technique: 2D computer animation.
Audio: A dreamy-sounding tune.
Availability: Appears on various pre-school releases from Contender, such as the 1999 UK VHS release of CITV Favourites for Under 5's, and the 2000 UK VHS release of Fire Engine Fred: Fred and the Opening Day Fred, respectively.
2nd Logo (2001-2004)
.jpg)
Visuals: On a white background with a red box underneath, 2 "N"s, 1 large capital "N" in purple, and 1 little n in blue with arms, both having eyes appear from the left and right respectively. The little "n" does a flip and a jump, which causes the larger "N" to gain a smile. The red cursive text "Nippers" appears on the top, circling them. Afterwards, the text and red box move with the text becoming white and gaining a registered trademark symbol on it alongside the "N"s zooming in a bit. Afterwards, the website link "www.nippernet.com" appears through an effect by appearing through the right.
Variant: On the Nippernet website, the animation is animated differently in Adobe Flash and "Nippernet" replaces "Nippers".
Technique: Computer animation.
Audio: A bouncy tune and a weird cheer of sorts from the little "n".
Availability: This also appears on pre-school releases from Contender, with their logo following before this one. [Examples?]
- On later releases, this would appear on the VHS label, but not on the feature itself.
- DVD releases do not feature this logo at all, once again despite appearing on the packaging.
