DreamWorks Animation: Difference between revisions

'''Logo:''' On a black background, some {{color|deepskyblue|light blue}} paint streaks fill onto the screen, as some painted clouds start appearing, creating a daytime scene. The scene then fizzles with a sunset setting, growing in size from the top-right, as more and more clouds appear, slowly becoming 3D. As we zoom through the clouds, they take on a {{color|mediumblue|dark blue}} tint as the scenery turns to nighttime. A {{color|darkblue|navy blue}} energy forms a white moon in the center, and the redesigned Moon Child on a crescent carves onto the moon, forming the inverted print logo. Clouds blow in from the left and from the right, as the word "{{Font|Times New Roman|'''DʀᴇᴀᴍWᴏʀᴋs'''}}" forms from light streaks under the logo, followed by the Comcast byline wiping in, as some clouds disappear from the background while some remaining ones slowly move upwards.

'''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.

*The child's silhouette is now ambiguous and gender-neutral, to appeal to more viewers.

*The child's crescent was a moon before, but now the logo is inside a full moon, rather than a crescent.

*The characters are redesigned (Po the Kung Fu Panda has less fur texture, Shrek's face having simpler features, etc) for a sense of co-existence within the same universe.

'''Legacy:''' The entire logo serves as an homage to the entire DreamWorks Animation library, and their history with very successful films, though the logo has recieved a mixed reaction, with many praising the return of Harry Gregson-Williams' fanfare, but some criticizing the apparent lack of other DreamWorks franchises and films (though this criticism subsided due to DreamWorks confirming that the characters will change for each film).
