Help me design an animated logo

MadAce

Because I'm chronically bored, am awake for 21 hours a day, have nothing to do and need to keep my mind occupied I'm currently delving into special effects and such.

Problem is that I have no idea what to make. My latest project, while higly educational and entertaining wasn't all that inspired. The project someone suggested was to make an animated logo for a fictional studio; not really focussing on the logo itself (or even showing it) but more on the stuff leading to it. If I'm not mistaken most big companies in the audiovisual industry have 3 logo's; one with some animationg/footage leading to it, one really shor animation and one none animated logo. I'd be interested in any ideas for the lengthy one.



I don't really care what name it has.



I've been doing this shit every time I was bored, but I'm fed up with putting time in something that's basically boring.



SO ANYONE GOT IDEAS?



Nothing that involves actors but just something cool and simple (simple not meaning simple to make) that would look nice and would keep me occupied for a few dozen hours.



Thanks in advance for your ideas and time. If I win an oscar in the category of best intro then I'll give it to you.

It would depend on what the logo looks like.  It think it should be somewhat, even loosely, tied in.

The design of the logo is free too. Don't really have one in mind.

Sad to have "the skills" (minor ones) but not the ideas.

I think if you had a name it would be eisier to brainstorm some ideas.

Just came to me (its real rough)  Name IMPACT Studios:

Starts out with a small animal looking helpless and pitiful in the middle of a country road. Then a large truck comes speeding at it with no intention of stopping or slowing (all from the perspective of the lil critter).  When they make conctact the truck is obliterated and the helpless animal crosses the road unscathed.

 

Just a quick thought!
