'''Logo:''' As the ABC logos forms in the middle, a {{color|#FFD900|yellow}} circle drops down behind the ABC logo and fills the rest of the screen. After this, a {{color|red}} circle drops down in front of the ABC logo and covers the screen including the ABC logo. Also after the {{color|#FFD900|yellow}} circle drops, a shadow turns clockwise and zooms out revealing that it is the ABC text in the signature font. After {{color|limegreen|green}}, {{color|dodgerblue|blue}}, and {{color|orange}} circles drop down in tune with the beat, a black circle drops down. Once it hits the middle, a white shine appears. This white shine focuses and reveals to be the ABC logo, whilst the black circle fills the screen. Once the ABC logo is done forming, another green circle appears, drops down behind the ABC logo, and fills the screen. With this, the words "''' America's Broadcasting Company'''" appear in white. The logo stays on screen, while the {{color|limegreen|green}} BG lights up in certain places.

'''Logo:''' We see a 2D version of the black ABC circle forming on a black background. As this happens, 12 squares in many different shades of {{color|blue}} slide in (and also slide right), along with the slogan "America's Broadcasting Company" appearing word-by-word.

'''Logo:''' On a background of nine {{color|red}} squares, we see the black circle being tilted. On it, the letters "'''a'''", "'''be''" and "'''ca''" draw themselves circularly. When the logo positions itself, a “ripple-in-the-water” effect is seen, and the slogan "America's Broadcasting Company" fades in below.

'''Logo:''' On a {{color|#00ff9d|green-blue aurora}} background with white lines trailing around, we see a black disc in the center. The letters "'''a'''", "'''b'''", and "'''c'''" write themselves on the disc with the white lines to make the finished logo. When it forms, the words "'''AMERICA'S BROADCASTING COMPANY'''" appear word-by-word below and the disc then shines.

'''Legacy:''' Amazing CGI animation for the late 2000s. This was used as a template (and concept) for both the [[ABC Entertainment]] logos from 2007 to 2012 and the [[ABC Studios]] logos from 2007-2013.

'''Logo:''' We start with the letters "'''ABC''" in its characteristic trademarked font suddenly appearing on the screen. They zoom out, revealing the rest of the 2013 ABC logo. As it zooms out, slowly decelerating, the light shining on it, in a similar shade to the background of the previous logo, becomes slightly darker. When the logo fills about half of the screen, the background fades to black, with continuous glowing around the logo. The logo slowly zooms out.

'''Music/Sounds:''' A new jingle with heavy drum music (based on the music ABC used in their branding at the time. Known as "Heroes," a piece written by Matthew Kajcienski of DreamArtists Music (a producer known for many other tunes on ABC) and performed with vocalist Taylor Carroll, created specifically for the network and their 2015 branding campaign.) ending with a vocal rendition of the ABC theme.
