Turner Feature Animation

Background

Turner Feature Animation was Turner's animation unit headed by David Kirschner and Paul Gertz in early 1991. The two animated movies The Pagemaster and Cats Don't Dance were produced under Turner's animation unit. Spun off from the feature film division of Hanna-Barbera Productions, Turner Feature Animation was folded into Warner Bros. Feature Animation, which was then merged into Warner Bros. Animation.

1st Logo (1997)

Visuals: On a light blue curtain background, we see the print logo for Turner Pictures that was used during this time, except "PICTURES" is replaced by "FEATURE", with "ANIMATION" below "TURNER FEATURE".

Variant: An alternate version exists with the "FEATURE ANIMATION" text removed and the "TURNER" text above the mansion. The logo is also completely white and put on a dark blue background.

Technique: None.

Audio: None.

Availability:

Only seen on the trailer for Cats Don't Dance.
The alternate logo can be seen on the wrap party tape for the aforementioned film.
This was the animation division's official logo, but a special title card was shown at the beginning of Cats Don't Dance instead (see the second logo).

2nd Logo (March 26, 1997)

Visuals: On a black background, we see an orange basketball, and a red/blue airplane. There's a white blimp on the basketball and the airplane makes blue marks that resemble drops of water. Over the basketball is the words "TURNER FEATURE ANIMATION" in an Art Deco font, and underneath the logo is the word "PRESENTS" on a red ribbon. The word "ANIMATION" is on a green bar.

Technique: None.

Audio: The opening theme of the movie.

Availability: Only seen on Cats Don't Dance.
