The studio was named after the famous French clown '''Pierrot'''. Nunokawa chose the name in honor of a circus troupe he saw as a child.
===Animated Logos===
==== 1st Logo (1985-1987) ====
[[File:Pierrot (1985).png|center|frameless]]
'''Visuals:''' On a {{Color|navy}}-{{Color|blue}} gradient background, the abstract "Clown face" emblem in a shiny {{Color|silver}} color stretches in horizontally. From underneath, "'''funnyface'''" with a black shadow zooms in.
'''Trivia:'''
* The "Clown Face" emblem also appeared in animated form on ''Majokko club: yoningumi A-kuukan karano alien X'', when it appeared as "The Light" with the emblem being voiced by Sukekiyo Kameyama.
* A special 45th anniversary video in 2024 features the Clown face logo alongside the old Pierrot logo.
'''Technique:''' Analog computer animation.
'''Audio:''' None.
'''Availability:''' Shown on the OVAs ''Creamy Mami, the Magic Angel: Lovely Serenade'', ''Appare Chibita no Oni-suji Zansu'' and ''Majokko club: yoningumi A-kuukan karano alien X''.

{{youtube|id=BpQiSJJZxyA}}
'''Visuals:''' On a black background, there is the text "ぴえろism" ("Pierrotism", Pierrot's motto from that time) in a copper-like font. Then, two waterdrops ripple as the symbol briefly shines. Finally, the text "Pierrot Picture Studio" in {{color|#0091ff|blue}}, writes in underneath.
'''Variants:'''
* On some movies like ''Bleach: Memories of Nobody'', "ぴえろism" is rewritten as "ぴえろSpirit" ("PierrotSpirit"). The text below is now colored in {{color|gold|yellow}}.
* On later films since ''Naruto: Shippuden The Movie 3: Inheritors of The Will of Fire'', the text "studioぴえろ" replaces "ぴえろism".

'''Availability:''' Seen on Pierrot's films beginning with ''Naruto the Movie: Legend of the Stone of Gelel''.

Background
Pierrot Co., Ltd. (株式会社ぴえろ), is a Japanese animation studio established in May 1979 by former Tatsunoko Production animator and director Yuji Nunokawa. Its headquarters are located in Mitaka, Tokyo. Some of Pierrot's most popular shows include Urusei Yatsura, Creamy Mami, Yu Yu Hakusho, Naruto, Bleach, and Tokyo Ghoul.
The studio was named after the famous French clown Pierrot. Nunokawa chose the name in honor of a circus troupe he saw as a child.

![](/w/thumb.php?f=Pierrot_%281985%29.png&width=300)
Visuals: On a navy-blue gradient background, the abstract "Clown face" emblem in a shiny silver color stretches in horizontally. From underneath, "funnyface" with a black shadow zooms in.
Trivia:
- The "Clown Face" emblem also appeared in animated form on Majokko club: yoningumi A-kuukan karano alien X, when it appeared as "The Light" with the emblem being voiced by Sukekiyo Kameyama.
- A special 45th anniversary video in 2024 features the Clown face logo alongside the old Pierrot logo.

Variants:
- On some movies like Bleach: Memories of Nobody, "ぴえろism" is rewritten as "ぴえろSpirit" ("PierrotSpirit"). The text below is now colored in yellow.
