Background: DreamWorks, LLC, also known as DreamWorks Pictures, DreamWorks SKG, or DreamWorks Studios is an American film studio and distributes films, video games, and television programming, being established in 1994. It has produced or distributed more than ten films with box-office grosses totalling more than $100 million each. Its most successful title to date is Transformers: Revenge Of The Fallen. DreamWorks began as an ambitious attempt by media moguls Steven Spielberg, Jeffery Katzenburg, and David Geffen to create a new Hollywood studio. But on December 11, 2005, the founders agreed to sell the studio to Paramount Pictures. The sale was completed on February 1, 2006, but the studio became independent again in 2008. "SKG" stand for the three men whom own DreamWorks: Spielberg, Katzenburg, and Geffen.


(1997- )
Dreamworks - CLG Wiki

Nicknames: "Little Boy Fishing on the Moon", "Fishing Boy"

Logo: It starts out at night with a moon in a reflection of water, then we see a bobber and fishing real. The camera angle then goes upwards to see a boy sitting on top of a crescent-shape moon. Suddenly, a "D" appears with the scrolling of the letters. After the letters are scrolled, we see the Dreamworks text with SKG on the bottom of the Dreamworks text, and the text is set by the dark of night with clouds to accompany it.

FX/SFX: The combination of 2D and 3D animation.

Music/Sounds: The only SFX is when the bobber hits the water, and it makes a splashing sound. A very nice piece of orchestrated music that starts out with a guitar tune, followed by a loud, majestic horn fanfare, and ending with another guitar tune. In recent years, the opening theme of the movie is often used. Composed by John Williams.

Music/Sound Variants: On the 1997 film Mouse Hunt, the same music is heard, but the guitar section at the end is replaced with a horn section instead. The reason for this is unknown at this time.

Availability: Very common, particularly in movies such as Shrek and Mouse Hunt among others.

Scare Factor: None, and is a favorite amongst the logo community.
