Silicon Lights, Inc./Summary

Background: Silicon Lights, Inc. is a Camburgian-American film and television production company founded by Michael Chivakopolis on March 3, 1983. Silicon Lights, Inc. did not use the logo until the release of Too Bad on September 20, 1985.

## 1st Logo (September 20, 1985-November 24, 2017)

Logo: On a black background, several streaks move to begin to form a then-current symbol, which consists of the two abstract light blue squares with lines around it with gold square with orange border inside it, and cyan square with an green-pink border inside it, the word "Silicon" in a white Spumoni font, appears one-by-one, then turns pink, both the symbol and the word moves back while the word "Lights" in a same font as "Silicon" zooms back and stops above "Silicon". Also, the word "inc." in a same font as the first two words fade in next to the words "Silicon Lights" with a red tittle above the "i" and a light red period next to the word "inc.". Suddenly, two bicolor wind streaks (one is red, other is yellow) comes in and out, while the logo disappears via a "warping" effect.

Variants:

* On television shows, the still version of the logo is shown.

FX/SFX: It depends.

* Normal Version (used for films): Typical 2D animation of 1985. Produced by Twiddlykoles Design in Grenolema, SV via Tulsa, OK.

Music/Sounds: A teletype synthesizer-like sounder throughout the logo, then a majestic synthesizer brass orchestral fanfare, which suddenly ends with a low whoosh when the logo warps out.

Editor's Note: Typical animation of the 1980s.

## 2nd Logo (December 1, 2017-April 17, 2021)

Logo: We start on a bluish-light blue gradient background. Then, two copies of "SILICON LIGHTS, INC." are moving in both corners. Suddenly, a star flash occurs, a turquoise oval in a blue border with a stylized "**SL**" slowly zooms in and stops at the center of the screen, the words "**SILICON LIGHTS, INC.**" in a orangish-yellow Shablagoo font types in, two more flashing star at the both corners of the screen. Lastly, the Gravyflux Technologies byline fades in below.

Variant: On television shows, the logo is still.

Trivia: This logo animation is done by AnneMarie Coultrimme at PsychoKolt Screen.

FX/SFX: Flash animation.

Music/Sounds: A majestic synth-orchestral fanfare. Near the end as "SILICON LIGHTS, INC." types in, 3 marimba notes are heard, culminates into a two-note piano tune when the star flashes one-by-one. Composed by Marcus Cagliostro. Sometimes, it is silent, or the opening theme of the movie.

Availability: Brand new, debuted in *Someone's Yellow, Something's Blue*, followed by new movies and television shows (still version only). Also seen on *Off the Air: Plague's Understand* (starting with episode 8) and *Join the Party Alarm: A Chivakopolis and McLyridon's Nightmare* (which is the last film to use this logo). The last show to use this logo was the first episode of Across the Party Alarm: A Chivakopolis and McLyridon's Nightmare "Affordable".

## 3rd Logo (May 7, 2021-)

Logo: On a black background with blue floor, the camera flies back through a series of multicolored shapes, each time the camera pans around around the blue surface, revealing that is a the stylized, wide futuristic letters "SL" (with "S" in pink, and "L" in purple, along with a red triangle is seen on the top-left corner of the "S" along with an orangle triangle, and the spring green rectangle isseen on the top-right corner of the "L"), lying on a blue spiky rectangle, the camera then zooms back and rotates to the top. The words "Silicon**Lights**, inc." in a yellow Helvetica Neue font, then zooms back to the below "SL", the 2016 Gravyflux Technologies byline fades in below.
