Skeeter Films

Skeeter FIlms (officially stylized as SKEETER FILMS!) was founded in 1990 in Bluffington by Doug Funnie, his very best friend Skeeter Valentine (who Doug himself named the company after), Patti Mayonnaise, Beebe, and Roger Klotz to produce entertaining films, videos and TV shows that won't talk and sing down to kids. As Judy Funnie, director of several SKEETER FILMS! says, "This isn't condescending Barney stuff."

Logos
1: "The Blue Guy" (what youngsters call him), "Rollerskatin' Skeeter," "Skeeter Films! Honk, Honk!" (1990-1995)

We see a picture of Skeeter rollerskating on a WHITE background and then the blue "SKEETER" text slides in from the LEFT as the multicolored text "FILMS!" slides in from the right. Then the "SKEETER" text hops onto the multicolored "FILMS!" text as the logo sparkles.

FACT: The font used was Jokerman for "SKEETER" and Times New Roman for "FILMS."

Animation: The words sliding and hopping along with the logo sparkling.

MUSIC/SOUNDS: Skeeter (Frederick Newman) saying the company name and then honking.

VARIANTS ON SFX: Skeeter sings "Coming around the mountain" and then cuckoos on special edition and promotion tapes and samplers. For "SKEETER RECORDS!," (music and lyric videos as well as video sing-alongs and concerts), we hear a snippet of "Bangin' on a Trash Can-Think Big" (Skeeter's favorite song.) The text "RECORDS" is petunia pink and it "pulses" like a heartbeat. Skeeter is seen jump roping.

For "SKEETER WORKS!," (dance instructionals and other videos on haelthy habits) we hear Rimba's Morning Song as the text and Skeeter dance. The logo is already formed.

For "SKEETER PRODUCTIONS!" (TV shows), the marigold text

For "SKEETER GAMES!" (computer games and apps), the neon green Bauhaus 93 text "GAMES!" slides UP from the bottom of the screen. Skeeter is seen

For "SKEETER FREAKS!" (horror films and other Halloween specials) the blood red "Matterofact" text "SKEETERFREAKS!" hops in as a G minor version of Coming Around the Mountain plays, followed by Skeeter cawing as the logo turns to a negative. Instead of rollerskating, Skeeter is dressed as a vampire.

For "SKEETER DAYS!" (holiday films), the green text "SKEETERDAYS!" spins in.

For "SKEETER Jr.-Just Like You" (youngster entertainment), we see a young Skeeter pretending to be John John from Lemondrop Lane, with him arm wrapped around a street lamp and blowing cotton candy gum. "jr. just like you" is

For "SKEETER JOKEZ!" (humour DVDS), we see Skeeter with a microphone on a red brick wall. "SKEETERJOKEZ!" is in indigo and we hear skeeter say, "SKEETER JOKEZ! MO-O-O-O-O-O-O-O-O-O!" instead of honk. On special SKEETERJOKEZ!, after saying the company name, Skeeter says, "BEEP, BEEP!"

AVAILABLITY: SCARE FACTOR: none to low for the original and special logos. Medium for the SKEETER FREAKS! and SKEETER JOKEZ
