Background
Locksmith Animation is a British animation studio founded by Julie Lockhart and Sarah Smith in 2014. Based in London, England, it bills itself as "the only high-end computer-animation studio in the UK making computer-animated family films". In April of that same year, visual effects/animation studio Double Negative formed a deal with the company where it will provide the computer animation for its films.
In May 2016, Locksmith formed a production deal with Paramount Pictures to distribute their films to be produced under the Paramount Animation label; but this was abandoned the following year when Paramount's late chairman and CEO Brad Grey was replaced by Jim Gianopulos.
Shortly after Paramount's abandon, Locksmith formed a multi-year production deal with 20th Century Fox (now 20th Century Studios) in September of that year, which would distribute their films under the 20th Century Animation label, with Locksmith aiming to release a film every 12–18 months. In October 2019, a few months after Disney took over 20th's assets, Locksmith formed a new multi-year production deal with Warner Bros. Pictures, which will distribute future Locksmith films under their Warner Animation Group label after the release of Ron's Gone Wrong, which was now the only Locksmith film to be distributed by 20th Century Studios.
Locksmith didn't use an on-screen logo until October 2021 with the aforementioned film.
(October 22, 2021-)
Nickname: "The Keyhole", "The Blues"
Logo: The screen flashes three different shades of blue, with the effect that they're getting sucked inwards, into a Keyhole at the left edge of the screen. Every time they go through a shade, that's what the color of the keyhole is, until all three have been done and the screen is blue. To the right of the logo appear the words "LOCKSMITH ANIMATION" as usual, with "a SMITH company" wiping in with the circles before the rest appear. It looks like the third logo of Rankin-Bass Animated Entertainment.
Variants: An in-credit print version was seen at the end of Ron's Gone Wrong.
FX/SFX: Nice CGI.
Music/Sounds: The opening theme of the movie.
Availability: Brand new. It debuted on Ron's Gone Wrong and will appear on future films from the company.
Editor's Note: None.
