Format Films was a television animation studio which was founded by Herbert Klynn in 1959 with Jules Engel as vice president, Herb McIntosh and Joseph Mugnaini. It was most active during the 1960s, producing episodes of The Alvin Show and Popeye. Klynn shut his studio in 1962 but reopened it by 1965 as Format Productions. The studio made eleven shorts in Warner Bros.' theatrical Road Runner series, and produced The Lone Ranger in 1966.
Format Productions also created title sequences for several TV series, including I Spy, Honey West, the animated characters on the television variety show, Hee Haw, animated various TV commercials, and created film title designs for The Glory Guys and Clambake.

Famous quotes containing the word films:
“The cinema is not an art which films life: the cinema is something between art and life. Unlike painting and literature, the cinema both gives to life and takes from it, and I try to render this concept in my films. Literature and painting both exist as art from the very start; the cinema doesn’t.”
—Jean-Luc Godard (b. 1930)
