Mike Young Productions
First known as Kalisto Ltd. in Wales, this company debuted in 1982 as a joint venture between Mike Young and John Parkinson by producing animated series for children until that division became Siriol in 1992. In 1990, just two years before Kalisto becoming Siriol, when Mike Young obtained full control of the company, he, alongside his colleagues, Liz Young and Bill Schultz, formed a second studio in United States, known as Mike Young Productions. Between October of 2005 and March of 2009, the company became part of the MoonScoop Group, and was renamed as MoonScoop Entertainment, by the company, eventually afterwards.
Visuals: On a black background, there is a yellow oval slowly rotating to face forward, with a spotlight shining on it. Over the oval, there is "Mike Young" in blue script with "PRODUCTIONS" below, also in blue with white fronts.
Variants:
- The logo may appear more zoomed or stretched in on some shows such as Pet Alien and the 2005 Bratz TV show.
- A version with a white background and a more print-looking logo exists, which was seen on the licensed video game Butt-Ugly Martians: Zoom or Doom for PS2. The print-looking variant also appeared in-credit on German prints of season 1 of Pet Alien. Proof exists here: [1].
- On the 2001 series of Horrible Histories, it is shown with curtains.
- On some shows, the logo is shown via split screen with other production logos.
- A widescreen version exists, which can be seen on Polly Pocket: Lunar Eclipse as well as more recent prints of Jakers! The Adventures of Piggley Winks.
- On Bratz: Genie Magic and season 1 of Bratz (TV series), there is a byline that reads "A MoonScoop Company", which was placed at the bottom of the logo.
- On Growing Up Creepie, the logo is still.
Technique: CGI.
Audio: The Butt-Ugly Martians theme variant from the Just Entertainment logo. In some cases, it's either none, or the end title theme of any program.
Availability: This was used in tandem with the next logo between September 18, 2006 and June 21, 2008. Overall, this should be spotted at the end of Voltron: The Third Dimension, Butt-Ugly Martians, Polly Pocket: Lunar Eclipse, Fortress of the Dragon, the 2002 reboot of He-Man and the Masters of the Universe, season 1 of ToddWorld, the Horrible Histories cartoon, season 1 of Pet Alien, season 1 of Bratz (TV series), Bratz: Rock Angelz, Bratz: Genie Magic, and seasons 1 and 2 of Jakers! The Adventures of Piggley Winks. Also appears on The Life and Adventures of Santa Claus, Mama, Do You Love Me? and Growing Up Creepie.
Visuals: On a white background, the first logo is seen here in print form, but with the text in dark blue and the circle is replaced with the yellow crescent moon from both the MoonScoop and Taffy Entertainment logos. Underneath the logo, there is a byline reading "a MoonScoop company", written in the same font as the "PRODUCTIONS" text.
Variants:
- An animated version exists where the "Mike Young" text is just seen at first (in that case, the text drawing in). The underline then draws in, followed by the rest of the logo fading in. It starts with "PRODUCTIONS", then the byline, and, finally, the crescent.
- On I Got a Rocket! and season 2 of Pet Alien, the animated version shares its screen with other logos on either a black or white background.
- On other shows, the still version can also be seen sharing its screen with other logos.
- At the end of Little Tikes Land, season 3 of Jakers! The Adventures of Piggley Winks, season 2 of Bratz (both the show and most of its accompanying movies), and season 1 of Chloe's Closet, the logo starts at the point where the underline starts drawing, and ends at the point where the logo finished forming.
- On Bratz Kidz: Sleep-Over Adventure, the animated version is sped-up.
Technique: 2D computer animation for the animated version. A freeze-frame for the still version.
Audio: Either none, or the end title theme of any program.
Availability: This appears in tandem with their previous logo from September 18, 2006, to June 21, 2008, and with the MoonScoop logo between March 21, 2009 and January 10, 2012. Overall, this should be spotted on various programs and direct-to-DVD movies, such as Cosmic Quantum Ray, the second and final seasons of both Pet Alien and ToddWorld, Bratz (both the show and most of its accompanying movies), the third and final season of Jakers! The Adventures of Piggley Winks (one of the first shows to have this logo), early episodes of the first season of Hero: 108, both the first and second seasons of Dive Olly Dive!, Little Tikes Land, and both the first season of Chloe's Closet and its 2007 pitch pilot. The second and final season of the latter program has the MoonScoop logo in its place.
