DreamWorks Pictures: Difference between revisions

*A short version of this logo was seen on trailers for films and at the end of films released through Walt Disney Studios Motion Pictures/Touchstone Pictures (except in EMEA and India), starting with ''I Am Number Four'' through ''The Light Between Oceans''. ''Real Steel'' has the still version of this logo at the end.

*Starting in December 2002 with the release of ''Catch Me If You Can'', the "TM" next to "SKG" is replaced with a "®" thanks to the registration of the company's trademarks going through.

*On trailers and commercials for early films like ''The Peacemaker'', ''Mousehunt'', and ''Amistad'', a 4:3 version was used. The only difference in this version that there was no "TM" next to "SKG".

*Some films have the logo fading out early after it has been formed.

*Sometimes, the logo may be zoomed out further than usual.

*It is not entirely clear if a full-frame version of the entire animation exists, as the logo was often presented in its original aspect ratio even on VHS and fullscreen/pan-and-scan DVD releases.

*Starting with the 2021 film ''Stillwater'', the logo is remastered with more modern animation of the clouds, water, and letters. The logo is also a lighter shade of blue. ''Oslo'' has the still version of this logo at the end.

*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 2 and 4 DVD releases of the film), the logo is silent, even though original prints and the 1999 Australian VHS had the opening theme playing. This may have been an error in production or distribution (considering that foreign dubs of the film actually skips the opening cast credits due to unfamiliar reasons for the people across the world).

*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; although it might be changed to a different splashing sound effect, depending on the film.

*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.

*On ''Saving Private Ryan'', the logo is silent, most likely to set the mood for the film's darker tone.

'''Availability:''' Very common. It premiered on ''The Peacemaker'' (which is also DreamWorks' first film) and has been used in nearly every DreamWorks film ever since. Was seen on some 2001 Region 4 DVD releases as well and pre-2004 DreamWorks Animation films, from ''Antz'' to ''Sinbad: Legend of the Seven Seas''. This logo preceded the 1997 BBC Video logo on the [[DreamWorks Home Entertainment]] DVD release of three ''Wallace & Gromit'' short films, it was later cut on future prints of these shorts. Current prints of the studio's animated films and pre-2008 live-action films may have this logo preceded (or plastered) by a [[Paramount Pictures]], [[20th Century Studios|20th Century Fox]], [[Universal Pictures]], and/or a DreamWorks Animation logo. It also appeared on DreamWorks Animation's only direct-to-video film ''Joseph: King of Dreams''. The logo made a surprise reappearance on the games for ''Shark Tale'' and ''Shrek 2'', released in 2004, despite these two films using the 2004 DreamWorks Animation logo.
