1st Logo (October 9, 2015-June 20, 2016)

2nd Logo (November 19, 2016-January 15, 2020)
_(From_-_Compulsion).png)
_(From_-_Play_or_Die).png)
Visuals: On a black background, aluminum droplets enter the screen from various sections to animate in reverse, forming "WHAT THE FILMS" in the centre. After the logo reaches a front-facing view, the succeeding letters in the former two words disappear as the first letters of said words slide to the right, meeting with "FILMS" to form "WTFILMS". Afterward, the logo shines.
Later Variant: The same sequence features a slower and sleeker aluminum sequence, all the letters are bolded, and there is a shine for the lower portions of the "W" and "T" and the upper end of the "S", all of which die down by the end.
Technique: CGI.
Audio: None.
Availability: The logo is seen on Compulsion, Play or Die, .
3rd Logo (July 1, 2020-August 8, 2023)
_(From_-_Mandibles).png)
Visuals: On a dimly lit dark blue background, a stylised, white, and interconnected "WF", made up of three rounded rectangular paths, wipe in from left to right. Following this, "WTFILMS" fades in below.
Technique: 2D computer animation.
Audio: None.
Availability: The logo is seen on Jumbo, Mandibles, and Wolfkin.
4th Logo (May 5, 2023-)
_(From_-_Perpetrator).png)
Visuals: On a black background, "WTFILMS" slowly zooms towards the top centre from the bottom in a non-rigid animation sequence while leaving a trail from behind. The logo flashes when it stops and the trail fades out beginning with the furthest copy. After the trail disappears, "WHAT THE FILMS", with a horizontal red line extending out of the two ends of the string of text, flashes below alongside the logo.
Technique: 2D computer animation.
Audio: None.
Availability: The logo is seen on #No_Filter and Perpetrator.
