Disney Channel Movie Intros

1st Logo (September 30, 2002-October 2006)
Logo: On a space background, we see the "DiSNEY CHANNEL" text scrolling to the left as we see two boys jumping and flares moving. We then cut to a girl jumping towards us with two other boys behind her. The background flashes into a sky background, and a filmstrip appears with copies of the Disney Channel logo with the inside of the logo turning, yellow and , as we move in a rollercoaster-like fashion. Six boys jump towards the screen. As this happens, the background switches to a swirl made with filmstrips and a multicolored background which fades into a rollercoaster-like fashion view of the swirly filmstrips. The boy in a hoodie jumps towards the screen and falls down, transitioning to another filmstrip view with two boys and a girl jumping. As the screen switches to a different view, another girl appears and slides up. We then cut to another different view of the swirly filmstrips with three boys. We cut to yet another different view with the two boys as a girl jumps through the filmstrips that make a round shape. We cut to the same filmstrips with copies of a background, a girl dives into a filmstrip which creates copies of her head, and we see a boy jumping. Finally, we cut to the same filmstrips as we zoom out to reveal something similar to the 2002 Disney Channel Originals logo, with the "DiSNEY CHANNEL" text starting off as, which turns black after the logo sets its position, and the banner reading "Impact" instead. After the banner sets its position, the same filmstrips come out of the right ear of the logo, as we see a boy falling and another boy jumping towards us.

Trivia: This intro was based on the intro of the former Zoog Movie programming block from 2001 to 2002.

Technique: Live-action and CGI animation produced by PMcD Design and animated by Black Logic.

Music/Sounds: A triumphant fanfare along with a choir singing "Let's watch a Disney Channel Movie!" multiple times throughout. Composed by Eric Perlmutter of Tonal Sound and Elias Associates.

Availability: Extinct. Was used before movies that aired on Disney Channel.

Legacy: This logo is memorable for those who watched Disney Channel's movies at the time.

2nd Logo (November 2006-December 2008, March 2, 2009)
Logo: On a black background, we see a spark appear from the bottom right side of the screen before it hits the center of the screen and become copies of Mickey Mouse's head (recycled from the long version of the 2002 Disney Channel Originals logo) before it fades into the same footage from the the previous logo with a girl jumping towards us with two other boys behind her with a green line moving around onscreen. It then cuts multiple shots from the previous logo with various effects to the footage including some where the color tinted yellow, some lines are moving around onscreen, etc. Logo ends with the same kid jumping towards us and the logo wobbling before it quickly "speeds" up.

Variant: An unused variant exists.

Technique: Same as before.

Music/Sounds: Starts off with a sparkling noise for the spark animation before cutting to a techno theme mixed with various sounds including multiple voices saying "Disney Channel", some laughs, and finally a voice saying "Disney Channel Movie!". Composed by D.S. Ramirez.

Availability: Extinct. Was used before movies that aired on Disney Channel between November 2006 and December 2008 before being replaced with the intro below. However, it appeared in error before a March 2, 2009 airing of the movie Harry Potter and the Sorcerer's Stone.

3rd Logo (December 2008-May 2014)
Logo: We quickly zoom through a stage background with "STAGE 1" on both sides of a door that has the 2002 Disney Channel Movie logo on it, the door opens up and we zoom through multiple pop-up book-like cut outs of multiple Disney Channel Original Movie scenes and characters which varies throughout the years. At the end of each montage, the Disney Channel Movie logo zooms out on a blue background with the logo contained with in a piece of a filmstrip while dust emerges from the logo's outline.

Then, it goes through a street with Izzy Daniels from Jump In! jumping rope with Shauna Lewis and Keisha Ray. Also on the street is Camryn Barnes and Alex Fielding from the Twitches series casting a spell in front of a yellow taxi. Behind the taxi is Ren and Louis Stevens from The Even Stevens Movie hugging while Calvin Wheeler from Life is Ruff is holding onto a dog while on a skateboard.

Johnny Kapahala from Johnny Tsunami is seen riding on a snowboard while we zoom into the Final Jam stage from Camp Rock while 3 masked people wearing white suits from Minutemen is on the right of the stage before ending with a shot of Troy giving Gabriella a necklace while she looks down on a city skyline with palm trees.

Behind them is their parents Theresa and Jerry Russo both staring at each other in excitement while Max Russo is seen with a wand looking towards them.
