Background

Telegael Teoranta is an Irish animation company based in Spiddal, Galway. It was founded in 1988. The company didn't have an on-screen logo until 2000. Its multi-Emmy and IFTA award winning studio works with international producers, distributors and broadcasters to develop, finance and co-produce animation and live-action programs and movies for the international film and television market. Telegael is owned by Toonz Media Group ever since they've acquired them.

1st Logo (December 19, 2000-2011)

Visuals:

December 19, 2000-November 11, 2005: In a blue room, there is a black screen with a blue rectangle outline in it. There is also the green text "TELEGAEL" below it and Telegael's symbol-a whirlpool shape, created with red, green, and blue spirals. There is a red light on the floor, and on the right of the screen is a microphone, which tilts its "head" up straight.
September 9, 2006-2011: There is an in-credit version of the logo without the screen.

Variants:

There is a longer version of the animated variant where the microphone (which is on the red light) quickly hops away from it before dying down and tilting its "head" up.
Later on, the in-credit logo was changed to include the microphone and the screen, showing the logo at an angle.
Sometimes, the logo could share the screen with other logos.

Technique: CGI.

Audio: The closing theme to the show.

Availability: The animated logo is seen in full on Horrible Histories (2000), season 1 of ToddWorld and in the corner on later episodes of season 1 of Pet Alien. The print logo debuted on Growing Up Creepie; it can be also seen on shows such as Maryoku Yummy, season 2 of ToddWorld, The DaVincibles, Growing Up Creepie, Super Sportlets, seasons 1 and 2 of Dive Olly Dive!, season 1 of Hero: 108, The Twisted Whiskers Show, Skunk Fu!, and season 1 of Chloe's Closet.

The in-credit logo without the screen, though, was seen on Monster Hotel, Cosmic Quantum Ray, Four Eyes!, The Island of Inis Cool, and the German dub of the first season of Pet Alien.

2nd Logo (2011- )

Visuals: On a white background, there is a large mass of green circles, all in various sizes and placements. The word "telegael" is on the right of it.

Variants:

Sometimes, it shares the screen with other logos.
An in-credit version exists.
An animated version of the logo has been spotted on Speed Racer: The Next Generation. On a black background, the green mass of circles is already there. "tele" cuts in with "gael" next to it faded, then briefly cutting to "gael", and then cutting to the logo formed.
A different animated logo exists on Kulipari: An Army of Frogs and Kulipari: DreamWalker, where the logo engraves from the dust.
Another animated logo was seen on their recent showreels. On a black background, a green spot of light forms a huge mass of circles from before. Then, the text "telegael" appears, thus forming the logo.

Technique: None. For the animated variants, CGI.

Audio: The closing theme of any show. The showreel version has a weird guitar theme.

Availability: Seen on their shows made since 2011, such as Llama Llama, Rainbow Rangers, season 2 of Chloe's Closet, season 2 of Hero: 108, My Phone Genie, Captain Flynn and the Pirate Dinosaurs, Sabrina: Secrets of a Teenage Witch, Teenage Fairytale Dropouts, Lexi & Lottie: Trusty Twin Detectives, among others. The animated variant was spotted on Season 2 of Speed Racer: The Next Generation after a screen honoring a crew member. A differently animated logo was seen on Kulipari: An Army of Frogs and Kulipari: DreamWalker. Yet another differently animated logo is currently seen on their recent showreels. Also seen on Wild Grinders and at the end of their movies such as Binky Bill the Movie and Norm of the North.
