Background: Alliance Atlantis was founded in 1998 as a merger of Alliance Entertainment Corporation and Atlantis Communications, both which were founded in 1985. Alliance Atlantis was acquired by CanWest and an affiliate of Goldman Sachs in 2007. The television distribution arm of the company was transferred to Echo Bridge Entertainment, while the movie business was relaunched as Alliance Films. Eventually, Alliance Films was acquired by Entertainment One. | Background: Alliance Atlantis was founded in 1998 as a merger of Alliance Entertainment Corporation and Atlantis Communications, both which were founded in 1985.

Editor's Note: Like the logo above, this was also a prototype. This one however appears to have been made quite cheaply, with the '''"ATLANTIS"''' wordmark being chyroned in to the Alliance logo, and looking kind of off-center. | Editor's Note: Like the logo above, this was also a prototype.

Editor's Note: A solid logo that updates the 1991 Alliance logo to excellent results, though the orchestral tune sounds strangely similar to the 1996 Tyne Tees Television Channel 3 North East logo. | Editor's Note: A solid logo that updates the 1991 Alliance logo to excellent results, though the orchestral tune sounds strangely similar to the 1996 Tyne Tees Television Channel 3 North East logo. | ||
