In May 1998, it was acquired by CanWest, which led to the formation of the film production asset "Fireworks Pictures". In 2005 CanWest sold the company to British ContentFilm. Fireworks followed the parent company re-branding, and folded into Content Television on March 14, 2011.<br/><br/><br/>1st Logo<br/>(October 22, 1995-May 25, 1998)<br/> </font><div align="center"> <font size="3">[[File:KAGGuYrjjWYnhGQM1MMrow17301.jpeg|212px|FireWorks (1995)]][[File:7HnG5VRpQpOGC9Y8Ua1NUg21325.jpeg|212px|FireWorks (1995, B)]][[File:Vgh93ya 0KIjgCzz4NpQyg20901.jpeg|214px|FireWorks (1996)]]<br/><iframe frameborder="0" height="167" src="http://wikifoundrytools.com/wiki/closinglogos/widget/genericvideo/264b9a62d67a3a5573e19b840a261623440804e3" width="296"></iframe></font></div><font size="3"> <br/><u>Nickname</u>: "The Fireworks"<br/><br/><u>Logo</u>: On a dark blue background, a white sparkle curves upwards to the middle right of the screen, producing a trail behind it. The screen then lightly flashes white, causing the text "<b>FIREWORDS ENTERTAINMENT INC</b>" to appear below in two lines, all spaced out and flashing for each letter. Above it, several bursts of white light appear briefly while sparkles and white trails emerge from the sparkle's stopping point. They eventually grow into several multicolored stars at different positions and rotations, with each connected to the trails behind them, and the sparkles and bursts stop.<br/><br/><u>Variant</u>: A copyright notice from Winterset Productions is sometimes seen above the company name.<br/><br/><u>FX/SFX</u>: The fireworks.<br/><br/><u>Music/Sounds</u>: The sound of fireworks exploding and some applause.
