Grasshoppa

Background

Grasshoppa is an animating and filmaking studio.

Logo (March 20, 2004-October 22, 2011)

Visuals: On a black background, two green butterflies arise and fly on the screen alongside a green fly. Below are 9 green vertical bars with white petals on the tips that represent as flowers. At the left, there's another green butterfly slowly flying from the left-most, with various green twirls growing from the bottoms, along with some being attached to the vertical bars, and some leaves grow from them. Various green bugs are shown crossing from the paths of the vertical bars, such as 7 caterpillars and a swarm of ants on the bottom of the vertical bars coming from the leaf, and 6 grasshoppers hopping around the twirls as they stand. Whilst this happens, the petals transform into the word "Grasshoppa!" with the bottom section of the two "s"'es cut out. The words "FILMS" appear between four of the vertical bars.
