Amazon Originals

Background
Amazon Prime (Prime Video in some countries) in Amazon's streaming video service which was started in 2006 as Amazon Unbox. Shows and films released exclusively on Prime are titled Amazon Originals.

1st Logo (2013-2018)
Logo: The Amazon smile logo swings in from an anti-clockwise direction along with a green vertical line to the left of the logo. The logo then rapidly spins the rest of the way around to reveal the Amazon logo (with the "O" replaced by a green play button) with "originals" below in a stacked format and the green line now to the right of the logo.

Variants:
 * On kids shows, the play button and the vertical line are yellow, and "kids" slides out from behind the bar once the logo finishes animating.
 * For comedy shows, the play button and the vertical line are orange, and "comedy" slides out from behind the bar once the logo finishes animating.

FX/SFX: CGI animation. Done by Eyeball Studios, who also did the Amazon Studios logo.

Music/Sounds: A held-out synth string note, then a 3-note tune.

Music/Sounds Variants:
 * The jingle was slightly rearranged around 2015.
 * Early season 2 episodes of The Grand Tour have the jingle in high tone.

Availability: Common. Seen on older Amazon Prime shows, such as the 1st season of The Expanse. On Season 1 of The Grand Tour this is plastered with the next logo, though it is retained on some early season 2 episodes.

2nd Logo (2017- )
Nicknames: "The Smile II", "The Prime Smile II", "Blue Smile"

Logo: On a blue-black gradient background, the silver, 3D words "PRIME ORIGINAL" in the Amazon Ember font fade in. The letters in "PRIME ORIGINAL" are spaced out at first but join together. The Amazon smile symbol draws itself in below in light blue as the letters turn white. Finally, the smile zooms into the camera as the logo fades to black.
