announced that the company has closed operations. "Vivid, which had just
completed its first commercial project, for MasterCard, will no longer
accept commercial projects," said Lotman who has decided to focus all of
his energies and resources on his two-year-old licensing and merchandising
company Global Icons. "Global Icons is growing faster than I had hoped and
the potential is so great that it demands all of my attention at this
time." Global Icons is a licensing and merchandising company specializing
in promoting classic celebrity and corporate images such as: George Burns
and Gracie Allen, Milton Berle, James Cagney, Bing Crosby, Sammy Davis,
Jr., Marlene Dietrich, Clark Gable, Bob Hope, Burt Lancaster, Carole
Lombard, Vincent Price, Donna Reed, Edward G. Robinson and Natalie Wood.
Lotman plans to develop animated programs through Bird Dog Productions,
which recently sold a live-action film to New Line, entitled TO ERR IS
HUMAN.
