Dolphin (first logo)
Their first logo is an ocean background with the city skyline from Clearwater, Florida. We see a dolphin jumping out of the ocean, and diving back in, which reveals the text: "CLEARWATER", rising from the ocean with the text: "ANIMATION" under it. The flare lightens the text, and the background turns to black, as the text turns to white, but the "CLEARWATER" text was half in water, and half out water.

Waves (second logo)
Their second logo is the word "CLEARWATER" coming out of water, only it stays half in water and half out of water.
