'''Logo:''' We fade in close to several gears and zoom out to a view of them rotating in a large Art Deco-inspired chamber. The camera then zooms all the way back and out through a keyhole, revealing an enormous pair of doors, with the company's "lion rampant" logo on both of them (intended to evoke its heraldry-inspired appearance) and a geometric pattern as well. The doors open and we see the name "'''LIONSGATE'''", now written as one word and with a metallic texture, over a heavenly sky background with clouds surrounding it.

'''Music/Sounds:''' A majestic fanfare with brass and string instruments and drums (which takes cues from Danny Elfman's ''Batman'' theme) for the standard version. The horror version has the sounds of the gears cranking and door creaking, alongside sounds resembling a heartbeat and moaning.
