Skydance Animation Madrid

Background
Ilion Animation Studios is a Spanish CGI animation studio formed by the founders of Pyro Studios in 2002. The studio's best known works include Planet 51, Mortadelo and Filemon - Mission: Implausible, and Wonder Park. In 2020, the company was purchased by Skydance Media and subsequently rebranded as Skydance Animation Madrid.

Nickname: "The Trojan Squad"

Logo: In a blue space, we see a fat, stylized Trojan horse. A door opens underneath its tail and a squad of letters swarm out. The big letters ride on the smaller ones and form "I L I O N", while the small letters jump and form "ANIMATION STUDIOS" below it. The camera pans around the finished product as it becomes flat.

Variants:
 * The print logo was used on the port of the Planet 51 game on Nintendo DS. The name is posed under the horse in black.
 * The still version can be found on the Nintendo Wii version of Planet 51 before the still Pyro Studios logo and after the SEGA logo.

FX/SFX: Great CGI animation!

Music/Sounds: A sudden cymbal crash as the door falls down, followed by a military-style fanfare and the letters yelling cartoonish gibberish. At the very end, we hear a high-pitched voice yell something akin to "Witha...HI!", and at the "HI!" the logo cuts to black.

Availability: Seen on Planet 51, the game based on this film, and Mortadelo and Filemon - Mission: Implausible. Don't expect this logo to appear on Wonder Park, as Ilion was only an animation producer for the movie.

Editor's Note: A funny, creative and well animated logo. If it was used on more than just two films, it probably would have become as well remembered as the logos for Pixar and DreamWorks.
