'''Visuals:''' The sequence starts with the normal 1998 [[Warner Bros. Pictures]] logo, but the shield is rendered differently and with considerably less detail. When its original animation is complete, it flips around to reveal a shield similar-looking to the standard Warner Bros. Pictures logo, but has a white border and red interior (similar to the one seen in the ''Looney Tunes'' intros), and the letters "WB" are replaced by "WAG", while the wording on the banner reads "warner • animation • group" (later using the uppercase letters, reading "'''WARNER • ANIMATION • GROUP'''"). The banner is also lower than usual. The byline is seen below. |

'''Trivia:''' The colors of the WAG shield are reminiscent of how the shield appeared in ''Looney Tunes'' cartoons. |

'''Legacy:''' Although this logo was originally considered an appropriate successor to the previous logo due to its CGI, it's nowadays considered a wasted effort due to it only appearing on three films within less than two years before the company was renamed to Warner Bros. Pictures Animation, and the fact that two of the three films this logo was used on/associated with (''Tom & Jerry'' (2021) and ''Space Jam: A New Legacy'') were poorly received by critics and audiences doesn't help its reputation. It also doesn't help that its reputation would later be tarnished by its current association with Warner Bros. Discovery (and their infamous decisions to write off ''Scoob! Holiday Haunt'' and ''Coyote vs. Acme'' for tax purposes). |

It is possible that this company may introduce a new on-screen logo. Details: The new Warner Bros. Pictures logo debuted on Wonka. Due to the new name, this may introduce a new on-screen logo. Please do not add ending dates to existing logos or attempt to add a new description until a new logo has debuted. Any premature changes should be reverted immediately. |

Visuals: The sequence starts with the normal 1998 Warner Bros. Pictures logo, but the shield is rendered differently and with considerably less detail. When its original animation is complete, it flips around to reveal a shield similar-looking to the standard Warner Bros. Pictures logo, but has a white border and red interior (similar to the one seen in the Looney Tunes intros), and the letters "WB" are replaced by "WAG", while the wording on the banner reads "warner • animation • group" (later using the uppercase letters, reading "WARNER • ANIMATION • GROUP"). The banner is also lower than usual. The byline is seen below.
Trivia: The colors of the WAG shield are reminiscent of how the shield appeared in Looney Tunes cartoons.
Bylines:
Variants:
Technique: CGI by Devastudios and Reel FX.
Audio: The opening theme of the movie.
Audio Variants:
Availability: Seen on films produced by this company, beginning with The Lego Movie (the studio's first film) and ending with Scoob! (that film being the normal logo's only appearance).
Legacy: A very well known logo among fans of The Lego Movie franchise.
Visuals: The sequence starts with the normal 2021 Warner Bros. Pictures logo. When its original animation is complete, the byline fades in below the shield (earlier than the normal WB logo). Then the shield flips around to reveal a shield similar-looking to the 2019 Warner Bros. shield. Like the previous logos, it has the same white border and red interior (similar to the one seen in the Looney Tunes intros), and the letters "WB" are replaced by "WAG", but this time, it does not have the "WARNER • ANIMATION • GROUP" banner. Just like the standard WB logo, the shield then shines.
Bylines:
Variants:
Technique: CGI, again done by Devastudios. Like the normal WB logo, the sky and clouds were done using Terragen from Planetside Software, while the backlot, due to COVID-19 restrictions, were created using drone footage, original blueprints from the Warner Bros. Studio Facilities and available photography and videography from Warner Bros. Studio Tour Hollywood and Google Earth, all in order to reconstruct it in CGI.
Audio: The opening theme of the movie.
Availability: This logo only appeared on three films within less than two years before the company was renamed to Warner Bros. Pictures Animation.
This logo is currently missing in action. Please do not add reconstructions of the logo if any exist, as they are likely not accurate to the actual logo. Additionally, do not attempt to add a finalized description of the logo until it has been found in its entirety. |
Visuals: Three main variants of this are known:
Technique: CGI by Reel FX Animation Studios and Nathaniel Howe Studios.
Audio: Unknown, as only style frames and model rotation GIFs exist.
Availability: Unused. Can only be seen in the form of style frames and and model rotation GIFs (of the first variant) on the Nathaniel Howe Studios website here.
