Talpa Media

Background

Talpa Media was a Dutch television production company founded in 2007 by Endemol co-founder John de Mol as part of the holding company of the same name (which originated in the launch of the Talpa TV channel in August 2005). In 2015, the company was acquired by ITV Studios and from 2017, was co-owned by de Mol's Talpa Network. In October 2019, de Mol left Talpa Media to focus more on the other Talpa assets; subsequently, ITV Studios closed the company down as part of an internal restructuring.

Logo: On a black background, we see a shimmering silver ball zoom out and rotate down to reveal four balls arranged vertically. These balls then rotate to the right and zoom out more to reveal ten balls arranged similarly to a cell phone's keyboard and the word "talpa" in a modern font below them. The balls then shine from bottom to top.

FX/SFX: The balls turning and shining.

Music/Sounds: A held out whoosh with a synth overlay and twinkles.

Availability: Seen on The Voice, including The Voice Kids and The Voice Senior and The Winner Is worldwide.
