'''Logo:''' We start out looking at a city skyline (most likely that of Los Angeles, California). The camera begins to move right, past a searchlight. The searchlight turns on, followed by two more in the background turning on. We then reach the middle of the Fox "stack" structure, but instead of seeing a narrow "'''CENTURY'''", we see a large "'''SEARCHLIGHT'''". The camera pulls back and reveals "'''FOX'''" above and "'''PICTURES'''" below. After the logo is finished zooming out, the byline "{{Font|Serif|'''A NEWS CORPORATION COMPANY'''}}" fades in, then the rightmost searchlight moves towards us, filling the screen with light, then we fade out.

'''Trivia:''' There is a brief animation rendering error about 7 seconds into the logo, as the camera pans past the front-right searchlight (before approaching the main structure). When it reaches the left side of the screen, the lighting and shading on the searchlight base suddenly shifts and changes positions.

'''Music/Sounds:''' A few seconds of silence, as the searchlight turns on, the 1994 20th Century Fox fanfare, composed by Bruce Broughton, plays.

* In 2019, the company celebrated its 25th anniversary. After the screen is filled with light, it fades to a {{color|darkgray|dark grey}} background with a {{color|silver}} rectangle. The object has a large "25" on the left with "YEARS" inside the 5 on in the first quarter on the left, and in the other three quarters is the print logo, minus the searchlights. Although this appeared on trailers for ''Antlers'', the next logo appeared on the film itself.

'''Logo:''' Basically an enhanced version of the last logo. It's nearly the same as before, except "'''FOX'''" has been removed from the top of the structure, and the words are slightly taller and larger to accommodate for it, a la the final [[Fox Interactive]] logo. The Los Angeles cityscape in the background is larger and more detailed with greater depth, the mountains are more realistic and multilayered, the skyline is much different, the ® symbol has been removed, the searchlights (aside from their light beams) are a lot darker in color (compared to the [[20th Century Studios]] logo which has the same colors for the searchlights but sleeker and shinier), and the Hollywood sign is pushed up to resemble the one in real life.
