Line 236:
** This is averted in the production of ''[[Earwig and the Witch]]'', a fully 3D animated film intended as a project for the younger staff at the studio.
* [[Iconic Logo]]: The hand drawn Totoro, the blue background, and the capitalisation on "STUDIO GHIBLI" all make their [[Vanity Plate]] memorable. It helps that theirs is often the only vanity plate in their films.
* [[Invisible Advertising]]: Done with ''[[How Do You Live? (anime)|How Do You Live?]]'', which has ''no'' release material other than a [[:File:How do you live japanese.jpg|vague teaser]] before its release. If you dig deeper, you can find some additional information, like [[Joe Hisaishi]] being the composer, but the poster and the vague premise of an "Fantasy Epic" are all that's released. The only news about the film is that [https://www.joblo.com/hayao-miyazaki-marketing/ there is] [https://www.theguardian.com/film/2023/jun/05/studio-ghibli-hayao-miyazaki-final-film-how-do-you-live-no-trailers-promotion no news].
* [[Logo Joke]]: The studio's standard film productions from 1986 to 2014 all use the standard {{color|#109ceb|blue}} vanity plate. Some productions, like ''[[The Red Turtle]]'', an international co-production released in 2016, uses a {{color|#9b282a|red}} background, to differentiate them from the studio's usual productions. In ''Ghiblies Episode 2'', the Totoro ''swings open'' like a door to reveal a man, who changes the phrase "スタジオジブリ作品" (Studio Ghibli['s] Work) to "スタジオギブリ作品" (Sutajio Giburi['s] work). It's pretty obvious the latter's a joke, although whether the former is for humour is up for debate.
* [[Meaningful Name]]: "Ghibli" is a plane named after the wind descending from Libya towards the Mediterranean Sea. The founders hoped that the studio would sweep a new "wind" across the realm of [[Anime]]. In addition, being named after a plane reflects the [[Porco Rosso|many]] [[Laputa: Castle in the Sky|films]] [[Kiki's Delivery Service|that]] [[Howl's Moving Castle (anime)|have]] [[Nausicaa of the Valley of the Wind|flying]] [[The Wind Rises|sequences]]. They also have "Studio" in their name because they are an [[Captain Obvious|animation studio]].
