Background

Pilot is a legendary Moscow-based animation studio founded in 1988. It was the first private studio in the former USSR and became widely known for its series (especially famous Pilot Brothers - Братья Пилоты) even in foreign countries. In 2010 the studio was forced to reduce its work because of the lack of money.

1st logo (1990-2003)

Logo: A line appears. Later, the gold script "PiLOT" and "MOSCOW ANIMATION STUDIO" appear above the line in the "turning/refracting prism"/"shadow line" style (a la Amblin Entertainment).

Variants:

  • On "Coup" (Путч) (1991), the logo (which is black and placed on a white background) is still and is drawn a bit differently.
  • On "Exhibitionist" (Эксгибиционист) (1995) and "Gone With The Wind" (Унесённые ветром) (1998), the logo (including the line) is white.
  • On some later 2002 and 2003 shorts, the logo has no line and is still. The "MOSCOW ANIMATION STUDIO" text also has a different font and is written in Russian ("МОСКОВСКАЯ АНИМАЦИОННАЯ СТУДИЯ").

FX/SFX: The effect mentioned above or none.

Music/Sounds: None.

Availability: Seen on shorts of the time starting with Poumse (1990). It also appears on the first two Pilot Brothers games. The current prints of some of the shorts ("Hush" (2002) for example) have this logo plastered with the 3rd logo.

Editor's Note: None.

2nd logo (2001)

Logo: On a blue background, we see the script "PiLOT" (which differs a bit from the original logo) written on a scratched sheet of paper. "MOSCOW ANIMATION STUDIO" is written below.

FX/SFX: None.

Music/Sounds: None.

Availablity: Only seen on Lateks (2001).

Editor's Note: None.

3rd logo (2003-)

Logo: The script "PiLOT" (which is the same as in the first logo) is drawn with the top-right stem of the T extended. The studio's tagline flips in one-by-one below. Since 2009, the tagline wipes in instead.

Variants:

  • Taglines have changed from time to time:
    • "MOSCOW ANIMATION STUDIO" (in English) (2003)
    • "МОСКОВСКАЯ АНИМАЦИОННАЯ СТУДИЯ" (MOSCOW ANIMATION STUDIO) (2003)
    • "БОЛЬШАЯ АНИМАЦИОННАЯ СТУДИЯ" (BIG ANIMATION STUDIO) (2004-2008)
    • "НО Фонд поддержки анимационного кино" ("The Animated Film Support Fund" non-commercial organisation) (2009)
    • "Анимационная студия Александра Татарского" ("The animation studio of Aleksandr Tatarsky") (2009-)

FX/SFX: The drawing.

Music/Sounds: A drum roll.

Music/Sounds Variant: On Bad Boy (2003), it uses a different melody: 5 bass notes and an electric guitar chord.

Availability: Current and common. Appeared on numerous animations produced by the company starting with Bad Boy ("Нехороший мальчик") (2003). This logo has also plastered the previous logos on the older shorts' current prints (however, in some shorts like "Exhibitionist", the logo didn't fully plaster the old logo, causing the print to have two logos in a row at the beginning).

  • The variant with the "MOSCOW ANIMATION STUDIO" tagline (in English): Only seen on Bad Boy and To South From North ("К югу от севера") (both being released in 2003).
  • The variant with the "МОСКОВСКАЯ АНИМАЦИОННАЯ СТУДИЯ" tagline: Uncommon. It has appeared on some of the older shorts' later prints (usually plastering the older logos), besides the shorts of the period.
  • The variant with the "БОЛЬШАЯ АНИМАЦИОННАЯ СТУДИЯ" tagline: Uncommon. Seen on earlier episodes of The Mountain Of Gems ("Гора самоцветов") and shorts of the period.
  • The variant with the "НО Фонд поддержки анимационного кино" tagline: Only appeared on one of the 2009 episodes of The Mountain Of Gems. Other 2009 episodes have the current variant.
  • The variant with the "Анимационная студия Александра Татарского" tagline: Current. Seen on The Mountain Of Gems since 2009 and the recent productions of the Pilot Studio, for example, the "Piglet" animated series ("Поросёнок").
