* November 19, 1995-June 29, 2007: On a light blue background is the text "{{Font|Times New Roman|P I X A R}}" in a spaced-out Charlemagne Bold face (the "{{Font|Times New Roman|X}}" and the "{{Font|Times New Roman|R}}" appear to overlap the floor). A desk lamp (Luxo Jr.) hops in from the right side of the screen and stops once he notices the "I" on the left side. He shakes his body and bounces on the "I" four times before squishing it. He looks around as the text "{{font|Times New Roman|ANIMATION STUDIOS}}" (set in Centaur) fades in underneath the letters "A" and "R". He then faces the camera (presumably in embarrassment or to copy the "I") before the logo fades out. | * November 19, 1995-June 29, 2007: On a light blue background is the text "{{Font|Times New Roman|P I X A R}}" in a spaced-out Charlemagne Bold face (the "{{Font|Times New Roman|X}}" and the "{{Font|Times New Roman|R}}" appear to overlap the floor).

* The lamp is the titular character from Pixar's very first animated short, ''Luxo Jr.'' (1986); the sound effects are also taken from that short. "Luxo" was trademarked by Jac Jacobsen Industrier A.S., also known as Luxo ASA. Luxo Jr. is also an unlockable character in ''LEGO The Incredibles'' (known simply as "Junior" due to a copyright issue with Luxo ASA), and can be unlocked after completing a Family Build of a statue of Luxo Jr. and the Luxo ball. Both the build and the character are made with LEGO bricks, and are different than the one shown in the Pixar logo variant shown below. | * The lamp is the titular character from Pixar's very first animated short, ''Luxo Jr.'' (1986); the sound effects are also taken from that short.

Then, the camera pans away from the "P in "P I X A R" and the screen zooms out as the animation plays, albeit with Luxo Jr. stopping on the right side of the "I" instead of the left side. "ANIMATION STUDIOS" also zooms in underneath. | ||
