'''Logo:''' From a dark outer space background with stars moving forward in medium speed, a colorful, more physically-correct earth than its Universal predecessor at the time (now with {{Font color|green|greener}} land, a {{Font color|blue|bluer}}-looking body of water and an icy white Arctic Ocean surrounded by clouds) zooms toward the screen with lightning speed as if to break through the screen and capture the viewer and then immediately pans down to reveal a large gold shining group of letters, "{{Font color|gold|'''MTE'''}}" in the MCA font (though slightly resembling the GTE logo), rotating and then zooming back against the globe which now appears again from the bottom, facing a bit down, and has stationed itself behind the letters, rotating also at an abnormal speed. After the letters and globe lock into place, the byline "{{Font color|gold|'''AN MCA COMPANY'''"}} "glitters" in starting from a little left of the center, revealing some of the MCA logo in its stylized font, and then the rest of the byline and the words "{{Font color|gold|AN}}" and "{{Font color|gold|COMPANY}}" in a bold Helvetica type font. All the byline is on a stone-like texture. The text shines afterwards.

'''Logo:''' We see the globe finishing zooming out to the center slowly and rotating on the starfield background from the 1990-1997 Universal Pictures logo. As the globe reaches into the center, the text "{{Font color|gold|'''MTE'''}}" in a big, bold Gothic-like font and a {{color|gold}}-{{Font color|#FFD900|yellow}} gradient texture on it, fades in on-screen and zooms back against the globe. Once it has stopped, the byline, "{{Font color|gold|AN MCA COMPANY}}" appears in spaced-out letters like in the 1990-1997 Universal Pictures logo. The text "{{Font color|gold|'''MTE'''}}" then shines twice.

* There is a prototype variant where the "{{Font color|orange|MTE}}" text fades in transparently and it doesn't shine. Also, the text zooms back from a bit more closer than usual and is shifted right a little along with the MCA byline and both the globe and the starfield are a bit darker. As the logo fades out, the last thing to be seen is the transparent "{{Font color|orange|MTE}}" text.

'''Logo:''' Against a dark, static, milky space background, the 1990 MCA/Universal globe stands still and then pans down, obscuring itself into the bottom of a {{Font color|gold|golden}} letter "{{Font color|gold|'''T'''}}" which fades in before us, zooming back from a forward angle into the center of the screen. It is soon joined by a corresponding letter "{{Font color|gold|'''M'''}}" coming in from the screen's left side, and an "{{Font color|gold|'''E'''}}" coming in from the right. The letters slowly align to a soft stop in which they are just slightly spread apart; the byline "AN MCA COMPANY" fades in underneath. All letters are in a generic Helvetica font.
