1st Logo

(1990-1991)

FX/SFX: The punching animation, which, along with the overall design, look very cheap.

Music/Sounds: Punching noises, followed by the sound of a bell.

Editor's Note: None.

2nd Logo

(November 1, 2002-)

Nickname: "The Boxing Cat" Logo: On a white background, we see a close-up of some arms with boxing gloves, punching a punching bag several times for a few seconds. Then it punches the screen causing us to zoom out to reveal a cat in a boxing pose wearing red shorts with a belt saying "BC" on it as its head turns down to reveal that it's standing on a white rectangular box. The words "BOXING CAT", in a black rectangular shape, and "FILMS", both in a Copperplate Font, zooms out. Variant:

Music/Sounds: A couple of punching sounds, followed by a loud orchestral hit. None for the still variant.
 * There is a still variant of the logo that is in the white box on a black background.
 * On Crazy on the Outside, the background turns into an aging piece of paper, and the camera moves to the left as we transition into the movie.FX/SFX: The cat punching the bag, the zoom-out of the logo. None for the still variant.

Music/Sounds Variant: There is an extremely rare variant that uses very fast punching sounds, followed by a bell ring.

Availability: Can be seen on films from the company, such as The Santa Clause 2, The Shaggy Dog, The Santa Clause 3: The Escape Clause, and Crazy on the Outside.

Editor's Note: None.
