1st Logo

(March 27, 2009 - October 28, 2011)

Logo: Over a room made out of metal plates, we see a fucsia ball bouncing, leaving a trail of blobs of the same color behind, which later disappear. The ball jumps to the front of the screen, popping out of it, and the going back. It then bouces again, freezing, along with the trail. The ball then turns, revealing the text "INTRU" with the word "3D", both in white, with "3D" being much bigger than "INTRU". A tradmark symbol is seen at the top right of "INTRU".

 Variants: 
 * In Monsters vs. Aliens, the ball and the trail are blue.


 * Beginning with Shrek: Forever After the text "Inside", in white and with it's own trademark symbol is seen below the ball.
 * In said movie, the ball and the trail are green, and at the end two Shrek ears pop out of the ball.

 FX/SFX:  The ball bouncing, jumping and turning around. Nice CGI.
 * In Kung Fu Panda 2, the ball and the trail are red.
 * In Puss in Boots, the ball and the trail are golden.

Music/Sounds: Sound effects of the ball bouncing, a "whoosh", a "ding" and another "whoosh".

 Music/Sounds Variants: 
 * The "Inside" version adds a metallic sound when the text appears.

 Availability:  Extremely rare. This logo only appeared on the theatrical 3D releases of Monsters vs. Aliens, How to Train Your Dragon, Shrek Forever After, Megamind, Kung Fu Panda 2 and Puss in Boots, while home media releases of said films eliminate the logo.
 * The Shrek Forever After variant has three "popping out" sound effects.

 Scare Factor:  None.
