Crayola Productions

Background
Crayola Productions was formed on June 10, 1903 as "Binney & Smith, Co." In 1917, the company's films were distributed by Warner Bros.-Seven Arts, which was merged with New Line Cinema in 1970. Crayola markers were introduced in 1978 to coincide with the 75th anniversary of Crayola crayons and in 1984, the company was acquired by Hallmark Home Entertainment, a privately held corporation. Colored pencils were introduced in 1987. In July 1997, the company's shows were collaborated with Alliance Atlantis (now known as Entertainment One) by Hallmark Home Entertainment to release three direct-to-video films under the name Crayola Kids Adventures. On January 31, 2007, Binney & Smith LLC was merged with Crayola LLC, to reflect the company's number one brand.
