Background: Founded in 1960, this is Cuba's most important animation studio.
1st logo
(1960's-2000's?)
Logo: Just the text "El Instituto Cubano del Arte e Industria Cinematográficos Presentan" in a different text or background, depending of the short.
FX/SFX: Whatever is moving on the background.
Music/Sounds: The opening music of the short
Availability: Common; you can find it on every short made by the company during that era, which are very easy to find in YouTube.
Scare Factor: None. It's really just part of the credits.
2nd logo
(2000's?- )
Logo: Same as the 1st logo,but this time it says: "Estudios De Animación ICAIC Presentan".
FX/SFX: Same as the 1st logo.
Music/Sounds: Same as the 1st logo.
Availability: Seen on the some of the shorts and movies made my the company and it's still used now.
Scare Factor: None; again, part of the credits.
3rd logo
(Late 2000's- )
Logo: On a table with a paper, the face of a little guy is being drawn; when it gets finished a blue filmstrip passes by, making the paper and the guy's head disappear; as a red hand holds the filmstrip, the camera moves, revealing that is the little guy (now in red), below the filmstrip, the words "Estudios De Animación ICAIC" (in red and blue) fade in.
Variant: Normally a print version is used.
FX/SFX: Flash animation.
Music/Sounds: We first heard the sounds of drawings; then a 3-note tune sounds at the end.
Availability: The normal version is used in some of the new shorts made by the company (but the 2nd logo is more common) most notably "El Conejito Majadero", while the print version is more common and it's seen at the end credits of some of the shorts; it also appears on trailers for "Tom Little" (the movie itself uses the 2nd logo).
Scare Factor: None to minimal.
