Imagi Studios was a CGI company from Hong Kong, formed in 2000 as the animated feature film division of Hong Kong-based investment company, Imagi International Holdings Limited, with their first project being the 2000 animated series Zentrix. Their first feature film, TMNT (2007), was a box office hit, but their second film, Astro Boy (2009), was a financial failure, which resulted in the company's eventual bankruptcy in February 2010, leaving remaining films (Cat Tale, T28 and Gatchaman) that were in production abandoned and unfinished. The company was then acquired by Brad Foxhoven and absorbed by his own production company, Blockade Entertainment.
Visuals: Over a black background, the logo starts with some white flashes in the middle of the screen. They then form a stylized red "A", and the white text "IM" and "GI" appear on both sides of the "A", in a connected, stylized font. Two large dots appear on both of the "I"s in "IMAGI", which glow. The text "IMAGI ANIMATION STUDIOS" flips up letter-by-letter underneath.
Variants:
Technique: CGI.
Audio: None.

Visuals:
Technique: CGI.

Availability: Only seen on Astro Boy, before they shut down in February 2010. The opening variant has also been spotted on Imagi's website's copy of the trailer for the cancelled Cat Tale.
Legacy: This logo is considered a wasted effort, especially the closing variant since it quickly became irrelevant just months later.
