Defy Media

'''Background: Defy Media is a YouTube-based company. Part of its claim to fame is funding for big YouTubers, such as Smosh (their first acquired brand) and Screen Junkies, plus websites like Addicting Games, Shockwave, and GameFront. They didn't get a proper logo until 2015. On November 6, 2018, the company ceased operations after its assets were frozen by creditors.

'''Logo: We see a purple glow glowing from the center of a black background on the screen. Suddenly, we see what appears to be lines of code. Then, all of a sudden, the lines of code disppear. As this happens, a white-bordered square appears as parts of the word "DEFY" start to "turn on", like lights (but the letter E has no back, just 3 lines, the top and bottom are the same size, and the middle one is smaller). The word "MEDIA" appears when the parts of the word "DEFY" form, but the letters appear in the same way as "DEFY". When the logo is completely formed, the all the lines of code have disappeared, and all we see is the logo. The logo then fades out.

'''Variants:
 * On the trailer for SMOSH: The Movie, a slightly bigger still version is seen.
 * There is a normal-sized still version, which can be seen on the web series Part Timers. The logo is also superimposed on the credits.

'''FX/SFX: The purple glow, lines of code appearing and disappearing, and the logo forming.

'''Music/Sounds: A robotic noise is heard when the lines of code appear, but stops when the logo is forming.

'''Availability: Brand new. Seen on SMOSH: The Movie and I Am Chris Farley.

'''Editor's Note: None.
