Tantamount Studios

Background

Tantamount Studios was a joint venture between Eric and Kim Tannenbaum (who also own The Tannenbaum Company) and Mitchell Hurwitz (who also owns The Hurwitz Company). They produced four shows under the pact. The company name comes from the fictional film production studio location in Arrested Development, which Mitchell Hurwitz created.

1st Logo (April 19, 2009-September 11, 2011)

Logo: On a white background, we see "when in culver city" in a script font in a arc, with "visit" underneath in the same fashion. Below it is "TANTAMOUNT STUDIOS" done in a crude 3D grafitti-like manner, squished and compressed with the latter word spaced out.

FX/SFX: None.

Music/Sounds: None.

Availability: Seen on Sit Down Shut Up, Brothers, and In the Flow with Affion Crockett. It was also seen on the pilot episode of Running Wilde.

Editor's Note: None.

2nd Logo (September 28-December 26, 2010)

Logo: On a black background, we see "TANTA" and "MOUNT" respectively slide from the top and bottom of the screen, followed by "STUDIOS" placing to the right. All of the text is in a Times New Roman font with a white border as they move quickly.

Variant: On some episodes of Running Wilde, the text has some white covering (like it's similar to that of snow).

FX/SFX: The sliding of the words.

Music/Sounds: None or the closing theme.

Availability: Seen on Running Wilde (excluding the pilot episode).

Editor's Note: None.
