'''  | '''Visuals:''' We see the words "{{color|deeppink|AN ABC CIRCLE FILM}}" in an {{color|deeppink|pink}} Peignot font (similar to the one used on Viacom's first production logo around this time) over a black background, curling forward on the edges. Then, the words begin to rotate in a circular motion, as though they are about to circle around the screen's middle. However, the exact same phrase in the exact same font, outlined, is seen going across the screen in an outward curve, as if it was the other half of the circle. Meanwhile, the phrase is seen going back to its original position, and when the logo stops, it is in the same position.  | ||

'''  | '''Visuals:''' On a black background, we see the cream-colored words "'''AN ABC CIRCLE FILM'''", set in an Helvetica-esque font, moving in a circular motion (more or less like in the 1st logo). A few seconds later, the camera rotates, revealing that the words are actually on the side of a disc. Being on top of the disc is the gold-colored text "{{color|gold|'''abc'''}}" in the middle, in its corporate font, with the smaller words "{{color|gold|'''{{Font|Arial Narrow|an}}'''}}" and "{{color|gold|'''{{Font|Arial Narrow|circle film}}'''}}" (also in the abc corporate font) above and below the "{{color|gold|'''abc'''}}" respectively, surrounded by a thick, cream-colored ring. We turn to face the top of this disc, which shines as we do so. Once finished, the logo stops rotating into an upright position, then flashes once, turning the ring, the "{{color|orange|'''{{Font|Arial Narrow|an}}'''}}" and the "{{color|orange|'''{{Font|Arial Narrow|circle film}}'''}}" {{color|orange}} and the "'''abc'''" white. The logo shines.  | ||
'''Variant:''' An early variant exists where the logo doesn't flash at the end, instead fading to a shiny 2D version of it with a {{color|red}} drop-shadow. The sparkling is also slightly different.  | '''Variant:''' An early variant exists where the logo doesn't flash at the end, instead fading to a shiny 2D version of it with a {{color|red}} drop-shadow.

'''  | '''Visuals:''' On a space background, we see a 3D transparent ABC logo, at an angle and in multiple colors. The logo then turns to face us and comes closer to the camera, ending up with "{{color|dodgerblue|'''abc'''}}" in {{color|dodgerblue|neon blue}}, and the circle in {{color|lightpink|neon pink}}. Below, the {{color|darkorange|neon orange}} text "{{color|darkorange|'''circle films'''}}" in the same font as the "{{color|dodgerblue|'''abc'''}}" letters, pans from the right.  | ||

'''  | '''Visuals:''' Against a black background, six multicolored circles scroll into the near-top of the screen while five multicolored circles scroll into the screen below them. Once the two are aligned in the middle, they become the {{color|orange}} letters "{{color|orange|'''CIRCLE FILMS'''}}", in a font reminiscent of the Terminator film title. The ABC logo then drops from the top of the screen and lands on the "{{color|orange|''I''}}" in "{{color|orange|''CIRCLE''}}".  | ||
'''Variant:''' On some ABC Weekend Specials such as "Mayday! Mayday!", the still logo is placed on a {{color|dodgerblue|blue}} background with copyright info below it.  | '''Variant:''' On some ABC Weekend Specials such as "Mayday!
