'''Logo:''' Same as the 2021 [[Warner Bros. Pictures]] logo, but rendered slightly differently and with slightly more cream-coloured, morning sky-style clouds. When the logo reaches its final position, it flips into an updated Warner Animation Group logo, now in the current shield with a red interior, no banner, and the text on the shield updated. The logo shines as the WarnerMedia byline fades in during all this. |

In 2013, Warner Bros. relaunched their feature animation division as Warner Animation Group, debuting with The Lego Movie.
Nicknames: "CGI Shield", "The WB/WAG Combo", "Shield in the Sky"
Logo: We start with the normal 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, and the letters "WB" are replaced by "WAG", while the wording on the banner reads "Warner Animation Group" (later using the uppercase letters). The banner is also lower than usual. The byline is seen below.
Bylines:
Variants:
FX/SFX: The shield flipping.
Music/Sounds: The opening theme of the movie. The Master and The Lego Batman Movie both feature the opening narration. Scoob uses the 1999 Warner Bros. Pictures fanfare for the WB part and "California Love" by 2Pac ft. Dr. Dre for the WAG part.
Availability: Common. Seen on all films from WAG from 2014 to 2020. Debuted on their first film The Lego Movie and made its final theatrical appearance on Scoob!. Don't expect this logo to appear on Teen Titans Go! to the Movies, as that film is produced by Warner Bros. Animation instead. This logo also appeared on the trailers and TV spots for Tom and Jerry (2021), despite the film itself using the next logo below.
Editor's Note: The colors of the WAG shield are more reminiscent of the how the shield appeared in Looney Tunes cartoons that were released in the 1950s.
Nicknames: "The WB/WAG Combo II", "The Joy-Con Shields", "Shield in the Sky II", "The AT&T Shield", "CGI Shield II"
Logo: Same as the 2021 Warner Bros. Pictures logo, but rendered slightly differently and with slightly more cream-coloured, morning sky-style clouds. When the logo reaches its final position, it flips into an updated Warner Animation Group logo, now in the current shield with a red interior, no banner, and the text on the shield updated. The logo shines as the WarnerMedia byline fades in during all this.
FX/SFX: Nice CGI animation done by Devastudios. The clouds were done using Terragen from Planetside Software.
Music/Sounds: So far, the opening theme of the movie, although they might use the new Warner Bros. Pictures fanfare.
Availability: Brand new. First appeared on Tom and Jerry (2021), and will be seen on future WAG films.
Editor's Note: Solid CG throughout, and compared to the first logo, the WAG shield looks even more like the Looney Tunes shield. However, the byline's color is a little too light and is hard to see.
