Machinima

Background:
Machinima, Inc. was an American multiplatform online entertainment network owned by WarnerMedia. The company was founded in January 2000 by Hugh Hancock and was headquartered in Los Angeles, California. In January 2019, Machinima abruptly discontinued their YouTube channels, with their videos set to private, officially ceasing operations in February.

1st Logo (2000s-2011)
Logo: On a black background, we see text saying "MACHINIMA.COM" slide in from the right. When the text nearly finishes sliding, a red square with rounded edges with a spiky letter M inside of it reveals itself. The text zooms out and places itself on the M, and a drop shadow appears behind the text.

FX/SFX: The sliding, zooming, and drop shadow appearing.

Variants: On some Machinima shorts, the letters "ORIGINAL" appear in front of the Machinima logo.

Music/Sounds: None, or the opening theme of the short.

Availability: Rare. Appears on Machinima videos at the time. It also appears on Terminator Salvation: The Machinima Series.

Editor's Note: None.

2nd Logo (2010-2013)


Logo: On a grey-black background, the square from the previous logo, now in 3D, zooms out and spins. Halfway when the square finishes spinning, text saying "MACHINIMA.COM" appears behind it and forms the previous logo, except the square is smaller. The square shines, and zooms in.

FX/SFX: CGI animation.

Music/Sounds: 2 whooshing noises, a synth tune, and another whooshing noise in the end.

Availability: Uncommon. It appears on Mortal Kombat Legacy and Machinima videos at the time.

Editor's Note: A very memorable logo to those who grew up in the internet during the mid 2010's.
