1st Logo (July 1994)

Visuals: A filmstrip is seen against a cerise background with a shadow below. The word "PENDULO" is written in the frames. Under each letter, "STUDIOS" is shown in really small font.

Technique: A still, computer-generated graphic.

Audio: None.

Availability: Can be found on Igor, but newer releases have the 2nd logo intact.

2nd Logo (December 1997)

Visuals: Over a black background is "Péndulo Studios", which is written below an orange stick figure with outstretched limbs.

3rd Logo (December 1997-July 6, 2001)

Technique: CGI.

Variant: Still form is used on the worldwide releases and later re-releases of Hollywood Monsters (originally it was on Spanish).

Audio: Ambient soundtrack and several sweeping sounds.
