Reelin' In The Years Productions

Background

Reelin' in the Years Productions is a media preservation company, devoted to licensing musical performances and interview footage. A large portion of this is from two programs they have entirely brought the rights to, The Merv Griffin Show and City Lights.

1st Logo (2007)

Visuals: On a shady green background, there is a filmstrip scrolling on the left. Zooming out is a superimposed film reel with the words "Reelin' In The Years Productions, LLC." in gold with a bright yellow glow around it next to it.

Technique: CGI.

Audio: Just a projector sound.

Availability: Can be found on some Jazz Icons DVDs by NAXOS.

2nd Logo (2012-)

Visuals: Against a spotlight background, three film reels zoom out and form one big one. As the spotlight dies down and focuses on the reel, the strip comes out and the name appears, forming the logo. Copyright info appears as the spotlight forms a gradient background.

Technique: CGI.

Audio: None.

Availability: Can be seen on reruns of The Merv Griffin Show on free broadcast nostalgia channels.
