Small Dog Picture Company

Background

This is the vanity card of Jason Winer, a director and producer for shows such as Modern Family, New Girl, 1600 Penn and Perfect Harmony. He also directed Arthur (not to be confused with the PBS Kids show of the same name).

(December 17, 2012-March 28, 2013, September 26, 2019-January 23, 2020)

Variant seen on some episodes of Perfect Harmony

Logo: In a light blue room, we see a papillon dog with a big shadow behind it that resembles that of a far more threatening dog. We see the words "Small Dog" in a script font with the words "PICTURE COMPANY" underneath it. The dog's shadow barks and it turns around to look as the logo flickers.

Variant: On some episodes of Perfect Harmony, the logo is still and appears next to the Hungry Mule Amusement Corp. logo. It's also zoomed out, revealing more of the background.

FX/SFX: The flickering and the dog barking (which is live-action). None for the variant.

Music/Sounds: A dog bark, a whimper, and the sound of a film projector. NBC airings used a generic theme and a voiceover.

Availability: Seen on 1600 Penn and Perfect Harmony. Don't expect this to appear on the first season of Modern Family, despite him being a co-executive producer and director. Also don't expect this to appear on the 2011 film Arthur.

Editor's Note: None.
