Background
Locksmith Animation is a British animation studio founded by Julie Lockhart and Sarah Smith in 2014 that is based in London, England. In April of that same year, visual effects/animation studio Double Negative formed a deal with the company where it will provide the animation for its films.
The company is currently under a multi-year production deal with Warner Bros. Pictures since October 2019, although they have gone through several deals prior to their current one: In May 2016, the company formed a production deal with Paramount Pictures, but this was abandoned the following year when Paramount's chairman and CEO Brad Grey was replaced by Jim Gianopulos, and later with 20th Century Studios in September 2017 until October 2019, after the Walt Disney Company took over the company a few months prior.
Although the company debuted a logo in the same year they launched, their logo did not appear on-screen until 2021.
Logo (October 22, 2021-)
Visuals: The screen fades into a white screen, which then reveals itself to be a keyhole as it rotates and zooms out, going through a trail of dark blue and blue pattern keyholes. After a while, it fades into a dark blue background as the keyhole moves to the left, closing itself in a large blue keyhole which fades in. After that, the large white text "LOCKSMITH" (in the Domaine Text Regular font) with "ANIMATION" (in Futura Medium) spaced below it; both fade in, followed by a small text reading "A SISTER COMPANY" (with "SISTER" in its corporate font) aligned to the right.
Variants:
- A print version exists, sometimes seen in-credit.
- On their website (from November to December 2021), the colors are in a slightly different tint and tone.
- At the end of Ron's Gone Wrong, their 2014 print logo is seen in the credits with their slogan "BROUGHT TO YOU FROM OUR LIVING ROOMS, KITCHENS AND CUPBOARDS ACROSS THE WORLD." on the top with Ron (from said film) is hanging on it at the bottom.
Technique: CGI.
Audio: So far, the opening theme of the movie.
Availability: This first debuted as a print logo sometime in 2014, and later made its first on-screen appearance in 2021 with Ron's Gone Wrong.
