*Slats appears to move differently on every film in which the logo makes an appearance. Interestingly, on ''Battling Butler'', despite Slats being given the title of "the only MGM lion that didn't roar", he roars once, and freezes for a few seconds before he turns his head as the logo fades out. | |||
*On a <u>promotional film for the studio</u>, the words "METRO-GOLDWYN-MAYER" appear word by word, with "<abbr title="STUDIOS">STVDIOS</abbr>" appearing underneath the words. After a few seconds, the words "CONTROLLED BY LOEWS INC." appear below "<abbr title="STUDIOS">STVDIOS</abbr>". Then the logo blinks twice with the mascot on top and a light below. | |||
'''Technique:''' Live-action footage, which differs depending on the film, with the elements surrounding the lion being a printed graphic composited over the footage. | '''Technique:''' Live-action footage, which differs depending on the film, with the elements surrounding the lion being a printed graphic composited over the footage. | ||
