Windchill Films

Logo (June 27, 2006-February 24, 2009)

ImageVideo

Visuals: On a white background, the camera zooms in to an animated drawing of a smiling snowman near a house. He starts to smile even more, the brim on his hat slightly curves and his face turns to an evil expression. The snowman takes an axe out from behind him and raises his left arm, which has changed from a tree branch to a demonic claw. While this is happening, the background becomes black, the house disappears, and the Moon grows behind him. The snowman laughs, and a lightning bolt strikes the Moon, causing the snowman to turn into a black silhouette. The Moon turns blood red and the ground turns black. The background shrinks into a rectangle against a white background, and the blood red text "WINDCHILL FILMS" forms below in a chiller-like font.

Technique: Hand-drawn animation.

Audio: The sequence starts with the sound of jingle bells. A wind blowing sound is heard as the Moon appears behind the snowman. A laughing sound effect is heard as the snowman laughs, then a thunder sound effect is heard as lightning strikes. As the logo finishes, it ends with a witch laughing effect.

Availability: Seen on Candy Stripers, Séance, and Portal.
