'''Legacy:''' This logo pays homage to the evolution of animation (mostly the 1997 DreamWorks Pictures logo, whom DreamWorks Animation spun off from, and the 2004-2009 logo), evolving from hand-drawn 2D animation into the 3D animation of today.

'''Logo:''' Over a clear night sky, the Moon Child from the previous logo stands up from their crescent, grabs it, and starts flying while the Moon vanishes into light. The camera then pans throughout the sky, They pass by various DreamWorks characters from various DreamWorks franchises and films; in order, the Bad Guys (from the film of the same name, all inside a car, with Mr. Wolf pointing a finger gun at the Moon Child, which they do back), Toothless (from ''How to Train Your Dragon'', who flies out of a constellation and towards us), Po (from ''Kung Fu Panda'', on an island with a temple, performing a gesture), Ted Templeton Jr. (from ''The Boss Baby'', on the other side of the island, surrounded by toy blocks and a baby bottle), and Poppy (from ''Trolls'', inside a bubble). The Moon Child high-fives her, causing the bubble to burst and the scene to transition into a sunny atmosphere. We see some hills and a riverbank in this scene. The Moon Child then passes by Shrek, Princess Fiona and Donkey (all from ''Shrek''), the former two of whom they wave goodbye to. The Moon Child then flies above the clouds, into the cloud background from the last logo (with more defined clouds this time). As they stop in front of the moon, the Moon Child casts their rod, forming the print logo design. As this happens, the text from the previous logo fades in under the moon.
