ImageMovers

Background
ImageMovers was founded in 1997 by Robert Zemeckis. Until 1999, ImageMovers did not use a logo. In 2007, ImageMovers was bought by Disney, and was renamed to ImageMovers Digital. They only released two films in that time, until Disney announced the studio's closure in January 2011. However, in August, it was announced that the studio would re-open and made a 2-year deal with Universal Pictures.

1st Logo (September 13, 1999-November 16, 2007, November 2, 2012-)
Nicknames: "Filmstrip Train"

Logo: On a black background, a light shines through the lower-middle-left of the screen. It later dies down, revealing a train that bears a resemblance to the Reading Streamlined Crusader that moves forward, with the text "IMAGEMOVERS" slowly swinging in and stretching underneath the train. When the train gets fully to the screen, the screen flashes, and the text appears fully underneath the train in gold-silver, as the train becomes a still image and has the back trains on it turning into filmstrips. The logo slowly zooms out when it is completed.

Variants:
 * There is also an early version where the train and text are more brown and silver looking, and the flash is faster, and not as bright.
 * On Matchstick Men, The Walk, Welcome to Marwen, The Borgias and Robert Zemeckis on Smoking, Drinking and Drugging in the 20th Century: In Pursuit of Happiness (where this logo was first seen), the logo is still.
 * At the end of The Polar Express, the logo is still, small, and colored gold.
 * On The Prize Winner of Defiance, Ohio, the logo cuts off early.
 * On Monster House, the logo fades out to black.

FX/SFX: The train.

Music/Sounds: A dramatic fanfare with some train sounds. Composed by Alan Silvestri.

Availability: Uncommon. The regular version can be seen on Cast Away, What Lies Beneath, Monster House, and Flight. Sometimes, like on Last Holiday and Real Steel, this logo isn't shown. This logo appeared at the end of Beowulf.

Editor's Note: None.

2nd Logo (November 6, 2009-March 11, 2011)
Nicknames: "IMD", "Red Sphere"

Logo: A red sphere quickly zooms in, with a building reflected in it. Then two steel pillars coming from beyond, making the sphere between them. More pillars come in various angles, pass over and place themselves like a staircase, where there are four steps referred as "IM", and a polygon block below, resembling the letter "D". The sphere appears to be above "D". The gray name "IMAGEMOVERSDIGITAL" fades in with a line above it.

Variant:
 * At the end of A Christmas Carol, a small copyright stamp (© IMD) can be seen on the bottom-right.
 * On Mars Needs Moms, the red sphere is replaced by Mars.

FX/SFX: Moving sphere and pillar steps.

Music/Sounds: The opening theme of the movie.

Availability: Only seen on A Christmas Carol and Mars Needs Moms.

Editor's Note: None.
