1st Logo (2008-2011)

Visuals: On a dark background, a silver artwork of an orca whale fades in with the stacked text BALENA PRODUCTIONS in (presumably) Times New Roman font, placed below. The logo then fades out.

Variants:

  • On the last year of the logo's existence, the logo is superimposed on a view of an ocean.
  • There's a christmas variant where the orca whale has a santa hat along with snow falling in front of the logo.

Technique: Most likely Flash animation.

Audio: None.

Audio Variants:

  • On Sonic in Jaws, sounds of the ocean are heard, then the sound of a whale is heard when the logo appears.
  • On the christmas variant, the opening music to the video.

Availability: Seen on all animations made by Balena Productions from 2008 to 2011.

Legacy: The artwork of an orca whale would become the main symbol of Balena Productions and would be used in the subsequent logos that followed after.
