*''Despicable Me'': A minion from the film peeks out from the right side of the screen, anxiously greeting the audience. Then, all of a sudden, shining text reading "ILLUMINATION ENTERTAINMENT" appears behind the minion. The minion is clearly frightened by the loud music that plays as it appears, and as the music ends, he stands stunned, and then falls over. He then crawls off the screen. | *''Despicable Me'': A minion from the film peeks out from the right side of the screen, anxiously greeting the audience.

*''Minions'': The preceding [[Universal Pictures]] logo has the Minions singing the logo theme, and one minion voice continues to sing the closing high note as the Illumination logo fades in, and the five-minion choir is standing below the already-formed text, and the one in the center is still singing the high note as the others watch. The center minion finally runs out of breath and falls flat on his face, then weakly holds out a hand for the others to lift him up, but quickly puts it back down as the other minions exchange glances. | *''Minions'': The preceding [[Universal Pictures]] logo has the Minions singing the logo theme, and one minion voice continues to sing the closing high note as the Illumination logo fades in, and the five-minion choir is standing below the already-formed text, and the one in the center is still singing the high note as the others watch.

*''The Secret Life Of Pets'' (prototype): A minion is seen teasing a puppy by squeaking a ball. He continues until a group of dogs comes in, and one starts to bark. The minion then throws the ball, but the dogs instead start chasing the minion offscreen. Then, a chihuahua runs after the group of dogs, barking until it goes offscreen. This variant did not make it into the final movie. | *''The Secret Life Of Pets'' (prototype): A minion is seen teasing a puppy by squeaking a ball.

*''The Secret Life of Pets'' and ''Despicable Me 2'' (NBC airing): The background fades in from black. Bob | *''The Secret Life of Pets'' and ''Despicable Me 2'' (NBC airing): The background fades in from black. Bob walks in from the right, scatting a tune. After a little while, the text "MIN" and "ION" (perhaps not coincidentally, the word "Minion") turns on and flashes briefly, while the light above the "I" in "MIN" glows. The rest of the text, "ILLU" and "AT" in "ILLUMINATION", along with "ENTERTAINMENT", turn on the same way as "MIN" and "ION". Bob gets excited, shouts "Illumination!" twice, and squees. A version that starts where he says "Illumination!" was seen on two short films. | ||
*''Sing'': Another different text design. 4 minions are shown. The one on the very right plays a harmonica, then sings "La" notes. He then sings "Illumination" and the other minions join as the chorus, whilst raising their arms in the air. The one on the left screams "ILLUMINATION!!" with a crazy look, and holds it for so long, the "MIN" and "ION" in "ILLUMINATION" lose power and turn off. He stops and looks at the text. He looks at the screen, and says "Whoops!" as the other minions stare in disappointment. | *''Sing'': Another different text design. 4 minions are shown.

*''Despicable Me 3'': Three minions are seen. The one in the middle is holding a flower in a vase. The left minion clears his throat and tries to say "Illumination", but the middle minion knocks him out with a vase. He tries to do the same, but the next minion hits him with a hammer. Bob comes by with the fart gun from the first and second movies. The other minion successfully says the name, and then questions the fart gun, to which Bob sprays gas. The minion faints in disgust. Bob then says "ILLUMINATION!" like in ''The Secret Life of Pets'' and chuckles. The fallen minion farts on Bob and he shakes his hand in disgust. | *''Despicable Me 3'': Three minions are seen.

*''The Grinch'' | *''The Grinch'' (trailer): The text is off. Bob turns a flashlight on as if he's saying "Illumination" in that manner, laughing maniacally afterwards. The text suddenly turns on and he runs off in fear. | ||
*''The Grinch'': TBA | *''The Grinch'': TBA | ||
*''The Secret Life of Pets 2'': A red ball bounces under the logo. Six dogs pull Stuart, who is yelling "Stop-ah! Stop-ah!" at them. The dogs crowd at the ball and Stuart smiles. As the ball bounces off, the dogs face the direction, and Stuart screams "Uh...Illumination!" before he gets pulled away, the dogs barking as they do. | *''The Secret Life of Pets 2'': A red ball bounces under the logo.

'''Music/Sounds:''' Just the minion(s) making noises or saying the company name. On the ''Despicable Me'' variant, a three-note fanfare is heard as the logo appears, which sounds like the [[Viacom (1952-2006)|Viacom]]'s Wigga Wigga logo music. | '''Music/Sounds:''' Just the minion(s) (performed by Pierre Coffin) making noises or saying the company name.
