Disney Channel Movie Intros

1st Logo (June 2001-October 2006)
Logo:
 * 2001-2002: We begin on a space background as we see the Zoog Disney "Zoog" logo and some people jumping on it; the logo sparkle as this happens. We then cut to the people jumping, with a girl in front of them. The background flashes into a sky background, and a filmstrip appears with copies of the 1999 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; a multicolored background then appears and we cut to 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 that creates copies of her head, and we see a boy jumping. Finally, we cut to the same  filmstrips as we zoom out to reveal the Zoog Movie logo, which then slams into the screen and flashes; as it does, the filmstrip scrolls up to the screen, covering the logo, and we see the Disney Channel logo.
 * 2002-2006: On the same space background as before, the "DiSNEY CHANNEL" text scrolls to the left as we see the girl from before and two boys jumping. The "Mickey Mouse Head" logo is also on the filmstrips now instead of the "Psychedelic Disney" logo. The Zoog Movie logo at the end is also replaced with 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.

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

Music/Sounds:
 * 2001-2002: A female choir singing "It's the right time for a Zoog Movie, yeah!" multiple times throughout over a techno fanfare.
 * 2002-2006: A triumphant, ska-influenced 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.

Music/Sounds Variant: An ambient synth transitioning into a slightly different techno fanfare, with "Let's watch a Disney Channel Movie!" being said in a European language, was used before movies that aired on Disney Channel in European countries.

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

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 makes a surprise appearance on a March 2, 2009 airing of the movie Harry Potter and the Sorcerer's Stone, due to an error using the 2008 opening, accidentally using the 2006 opening instead.

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.

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 Tyco 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.

6th Logo (April 2019-)
Logo: On a yellow background, 2 gloved hands (likely Mickey's) make a frame pose that acts as a transition to the next scene, which is a clapperboard, on a purple background, closing itself and reopening it, forming the dot of the "i" in the Disney Channel logo. It then slides to the right with 3 Mickey gloves, 2 of which are yellow, giving thumbs up. They fly away to reveal a simplified version of the famous comedy/drama masks wearing Mickey ears with a Hollywood Walk of Fame star in the left corner. We zoom to the left, encountering a movie camera in the process (which the Disney Channel "i" dot hits to give it Mickey ears). 3D glasses are on the left. We see 2 searchlights pass by us, giving us the final logo.

Variant: Starting on November 7, 2021, the intro is abridged and the word "MOVIE" is replaced by "FAMILY MOVIE". After the logo forms, it irises in to the General Audience rating tag on a purple background.
