Filmation Logo History

Filmation Associates was an American production company based in Reseda, California that produced animation and live-action programming for television from 1963 until 1989. Their founders and principal producers were Lou Scheimer, Hal Sutherland, and Norm Prescott. In 1981, Westinghouse acquired Filmation, who later on sold the company to Paravision International in 1989. Before that sale was complete, Westinghouse shuttered the film studio on February 3, 1989, which left L&(a French cosmetics company, oddly enough) with only the Filmation library.
