Legine Animation

Background
Legine Animation is an American animation studio. It is headquartered in Seattle, Washington, United States of America. The company was founded in 1992, and their first film was Goofy Scoopers in 2001.

1st Logo (March 30, 2001-February 15, 2021)
Nickname: "Scared Sponge"

Logo: SpongeBob the sponge peeks out from the right side of the screen, anxiously greeting the audience. Then, all of a sudden, the text "LEGINE ANIMATION" appears behind him, flashing brightly. Stuart is clearly frightened by the loud music that plays as it appears, and as the music ends, he stands stunned, and then falls over. He then crawls off the screen.

Variants:
 * Starting with Nano Group on July 10, 2020, the byline "A SpongeMedia COMPANY" fades in below the logo.
 * On trailers and TV commercials for the studio's movies, there's a short version of the logo in which it just shows SpongeBob peeking in, but the text is already there.
 * On the extremely rare teaser trailer for SpongeBob SquarePants: The Movie, the logo plays normally, but after the logo ends, a man says "Cut, you did great".

Closing Title: The already formed logo, fading in and out.

FX/SFX: CGI animation.

Music/Sounds: SpongeBob making noises at first, and then a loud, bombastic three-note fanfare is heard as the logo appears, kinda sounding like the Viacom "Wigga-Wigga" logo.

Music/Sounds Variants:
 * On some movies, the film's opening theme is used instead.
 * The closing variant is silent.

Availability: Common during its usage, but will become extinct in 2023.
 * It made its debut on Goofy Scoopers, and then appeared on Fun-Sized Friends, Goons on the Moon, Sandy's Nutty Nieces, Under the Small Top, Krusty Koncessionaires, SpongeBob's Last Stand, Jolly Lodgers, A Place for Pets, Kenny the Cat, My Leg!, High Sea Diving, SpongeBob's Place, Gary's Got Legs, Chatterbox Gary, Patrick's Tantrum, Escape from Beneath Glove World, Nano Group, SpongeBob's Road to Christmas, and Rock and Stick.
 * The final release to use this logo was Plane to Sea.
 * Also seen on trailers and TV commercials for the studio's movies.
 * This logo was last seen on the teaser trailer for Captain Pipsqueak.

Editor's Note: A really memorable logo for those who grew up with their films. The next logo is even more mind blowing.

2nd Logo (January 15, 2021-)
Nickname: "Scared Sponge II"

Logo: Same as the first logo, but the animation is redone and more modern looking. Also, the byline "A SpongeMedia Company" from the previous logo fades in below after the text appears.

Variant: On the official trailers and the TV spots for Captain Pipsqueak, SpongeBob is absent.

Closing Title: Same as the previous logo.

FX/SFX: More advanced CGI animation.

Music/Sounds: Same as the previous logo, except the fanfare is even more bombastic and loud, and a choir is heard accompanying it.

Availability: Current. The logo first debuted on the theatrical trailer for Captain Pipsqueak, and the fully animated version is made its premiere on the film itself. It then appeared on later films from the company since then.

Editor's Note: A worthy and more fulfilling successor to the previous logo.
