'''FX/SFX:''' The bobber dropping, the reveal of the letters. Great CGI from Industrial Light & Magic that still holds up almost a quarter of a century later. It was directed by ILM animation supervisor Wes Takahashi, and Hunt provided some of the resources for the logo.

'''Music/Sounds:''' A dreamy orchestral piece with an acoustic guitar section. Composed by John Williams.
'''Music/Sounds:''' The only SFX is when the bobber hits the water, and it makes a splashing sound. A very nice piece of orchestrated music that starts out with a guitar tune, followed by a loud, majestic horn fanfare, and ending with another guitar tune. Composed by John Williams

* On ''MouseHunt'', the theme is a slightly different orchestration and the guitar section at the end is replaced with a French horn playing the same notes (which was used for the short version of the 1996 DreamWorks Interactive logo). The sound of the bobber hitting the water is also slightly delayed.

* On some prints of ''Antz'' (such as the Region 4 DVD releases of the film), the logo is silent, even though original prints and the 1999 Aussie VHS had the opening theme playing. This may have been an error in production or distribution.

* On some films, the opening soundtrack is used, along with the sound of the bobber splashing into the water.
* On some films, such as ''Chicken Run'' (American prints), ''The Road to El Dorado'', and ''Shrek'', the opening theme of the film is used. This is also the case in more recent films. The splashing CGI SFX can sometimes still remain in the audio.
* On the US DVD release of ''Evolution'', when you select the "English 2.0" track, the 1998 common fanfare for the 1993 Columbia Pictures logo will be heard instead. This most likely boils down to the fact the 2.0 English track from the Sony-owned international master was mistakenly used.
