SIP Animation

Background
SIP Animation was established in 1977 by Haim Saban and Jacqueline Tordjman initially as "Saban International Paris" (hence its initials), a television production company, that later in 1980, it moved into the field of animation with the formation of its American subsidiary "Saban Records" (later "Saban Entertainment"). At first, it just provided music for cartoons (it used a unique strategy whereby the animation company got to use the music for free, but Saban had the publishing rights and could collect broadcast royalties from TV stations via collection agencies), but eventually started producing its own animation. It produced many of Saban's animated series that had the prefix "Saban's" in front of them. Following the sale of Saban Entertainment and Fox Family Worldwide to Disney in 2001, it was renamed to its then-new name on October 1, 2002 and produced shows for Jetix Europe. The company was subject to liquidation in 2009, then in October 2023, Disney terminated the company through BVS Entertainment.

Logo (September 3, 2003-June 8, 2009)
Visuals: On a white background, a, crudely drawn circle zooms out and spins, and large yellow and small black letters in a jumble spin out as the circle shrinks. It becomes the word "SIP Animation", with "SIP" written in large yellow letters, also crudely written, and animation, in small, equally crude, dark blue lettering below, and the "I" is dotted by the circle.

Early Variant: In this logo's early years, the logo spins faster, and is also seen much smaller. The animation text then spins letter by letter.

Variants:
 * A still version exists.
 * There is a print variant where the logo is seen inside a rotated yellow box on a grayish white background over a plain white background.

Technique: 2D animation.

Audio: Various "squeaky" laughing noises, along with the classic Hanna-Barbera zing-out sound effect. A split-second of "Sound Ideas, BIRD, ROOSTER - MORNING CALL, ANIMAL 01" and a party blower-like trumpet are also heard.

Audio Variants:
 * On most shows, the end theme plays or none.
 * On Teletoon airings of What's with Andy? season 2 and The Tofus, the sounds are played much faster.
 * On ABC Kids airings of W.I.T.C.H. from 2004-2005, it used a generic theme.

Availability:
 * The early variant is seen on the second season of What's With Andy? and the first two episodes of The Tofus.
 * The main logo was seen on The Tofus, W.I.T.C.H. (last seen on ABC Kids and Toon Disney/Jetix in the US), A.T.O.M. - Alpha Teens on Machines (which also preserves the logo on Amazon Prime prints) and Combo Ninos as well as four TV pilots produced by SIP - The Jokers, Ko Bushi, Wesh Wesh Express and Astaquana.
 * The print variant is seen in the credits for Combo Ninos and a short film titled Inukshuk, as well as at the beginning of Wesh Wesh Express.
 * Gadget and the Gadgetinis was also produced by the company, but didn't use this logo, just an in-credit notice.
