'''Logo:''' On a light blue background, some letters bumps out of nowhere. As a blue "t" jumps forward, a blue "n" runs by, and a blue "o" rolls down, a blue "i" slides while a blue "a" spins around. Then "i" comes back, trips, and loses its dot. A blue "m" dodges it and it hits the "a". The dot bounces off a ton of letters while the (now dotless) "i" tries to catch it. Then all the letters bounce back and are revealed to be the letters in the word "animation". Then the words "SONY PICTURES" drop on the word "animation". The logo slowly zooms out until all the letters fall down.

* On short films, it is already formed; however, the camera zooms in slowly, and the word "animation" is missing the "o". Said letter then drops down and squeezes between "i" and "n". It then knocks "i" and "n" out, sending the dot on the "i" throwing itself to the left. The "m" crawls slightly left as the "n" rapidly changes into the ping-pong racket sending the "i"'s dot back to it belongs before changing back into "n". The "SONY PICTURES" text and the letters falling down play normally after that.

'''Editor's Note:''' Very different compared to the 2nd logo, and it's cool to see different versions on their movies. The television logo however is pretty simplistic.
