Background: Ánima Estudios was founded in 2003 on Mexico, they produced several animated films such as "Wizards and Giants" or "Top Cat: The Movie".

1st logo

(November 19, 2003 - October 30,2014)

Logo: On a white background, we see a green square, the camera zooms out, revealing that is the dot of the "i" on the word "Ánima Estudios" on a black colour. A shadow of a kid walks and picks the dot with his finger, he moves the dot, forming a green atom shape, he then throws the atom, the atom knocks the "n" and turns it in to a green colour. The kid catches the atom and the logo freezes.

Variants:

·During the end credits of most of the movies and shows made by them, a print version of the logo is seen without the kid.

·On "Poncho Balon", the logo is still on an orange background.

·"A Martian Christmas" uses the same variant as "Poncho Balon", but the background is on a grey colour.

·On "Gaturro" and the Aregentine release of "Top Cat: The Movie", the print logo is used.

·On the opening credits of "La Leyenda De La Llorona", the print version of the logo is written with chalk and each letter has a different color.

·On "Teenage Fayritale Dropouts", the logo is on a high-speed.

FX/SFX: Fantastic CGI Animation!

Music/Sounds: A collection of electronic sounds, though normally the logo uses the opening/closing theme of the movie/show.

Availability: The normal logo is seen on all the movies they've made during that era, except for "Top Cat: The Movie", the print logo appears at the end credits of all the movies they've made, as well as on "El Chavo Animado" and "El Chapulin Colorado".

Scare Factor: None to low, the electronic sounds can scare someone, but is a nice logo.

2nd logo

(October 30, 2014 - )

Logo: The logo starts like the 1st logo but this time is on a grey color, the point on the "i" is also on a grey colour, the "n" is already green, and the kid doesn't appear anymore. When we see the full text, something happens to the logo, which varies, depending of the film:

La Leyenda De Las Momias De Guanajuato: The "i" starts to shake and the point falls to the ground, the "i" then falls too, as we see the hand of one of the mummies from the movie rising from the ground. The mummy rises from above and he notices us, he roars angrily, as a storm is heard in the background, the logo fades to black, except for the eyes of the mummy, which are still there. Suddenly, other eyes appear on the darkness and the whole logo fades to black.

Wicked Flying Monkeys: A thunder hits the "i" and turns it into the Wicked Witch of the West, who throws an evil laugh, and lots of flying monkeys fly from the ground, until they fill the whole screen, which then fades to black.

Top Cat Begins: The "i" turns into a trash can and we see Benny hiding on the letter "m", Benny starts hiting the trash can several times with a hammer, he doesn't notice that Top Cat is inside the trash can, he comes out of it very dizzy and sees Benny angrily, Benny finally notices Top Cat and goes away running. Top Cat then closes the trash can and the logo fades to black.

FX/SFX: Normally CGI, the variant used on "La Leyenda De Las Momias De Guanajuato" mixes flash animation.

Music/Sounds: Each movie has a different theme, based on the soundtrack of the film, along with the sounds the characters in the logo make.

Availability: Seen on the movies named above.

Scare Factor: Depends on the variant, the one used on "La Leyenda De Las Momias De Guanajuato" could be High, because the mummy can scare you the first time you see, while the other ones are None because they are kind of funny.
