Logo: On a retro-style black background, a white stripe flies down diagonally splitted into red, green, and blue color channels. This is followed by a horizontal stripe and a vertical stripe, both of which fly in next to the diagonal one. A circle and a semicircle slide out on top of the horizontal stripe, and several thin lines fly and drawn in near the shapes, forming the text "A24". The logo remains on-screen before folding away.

Variants:

• There was a prototype variant of this logo where the animation is much different--it eventually went unused. The logo begins on a shaky black screen for a few moments before several shapes flash on the screen in multiple colors in timing with the 3-note melody and then quickly back away in white. The shapes float for a moment before they fold out, revealing that they are "A24", before breaking apart in the style of the movie logo's formation.
• On Mid 90s, the logo is shown in live-action, formed via several skateboards on some pavement and shot at an angle. A few characters then run and walk over it.
• On the trailer for Climax, the logo is shown on a TV.
• On The Carmichael Show, the logo shares the screen with the Morningside Entertainment logo above.
• On the trailer for Eighth Grade, the logo is shown on a video, the logo pauses, the cursor plays the logo, and it's incomplete.

FX/SFX: The sliding of the shapes, the background.

Music/Sounds: None or the opening/closing theme of the movie/show.

Music/Sounds Variants:

• The original Vimeo version of this logo uses a musical bed with synthesizers and cellos. This has not been reportedly seen on any of the company's films.
• The rejected prototype featured a 8-bit chiptune theme, accompanied by some sliding and clicking sounds.

Availability: Seen on all films from the company starting with A Glimpse in the Mind of Charles Swan III. Also seen on TV series such as The Carmichael Show.

Editor’s Note: This is an interesting logo to go with the company's amazing filmography.
