'''Logo:''' On a black background, a golden, rounded square passes by, bringing in a bright light. Another square passes while we zoom out through another to reveal we were inside the golden filmstrip ribbon. The ribbon zooms out and settles in place, this time reading "<span style="font-family: 'Times New Roman';">ART FOR ART'S SAKE</span>" (the English translation of the usual "<span style="font-family: 'Times New Roman';">ARS GRATIA ARTIS</span>"). A bright light is seen filtering out of the words in the ribbon, filling it with gold. By the time the light fades away from the right, the ribbon gains an extremely shiny metallic luster and the English translation changes back to its familiar Latin version. The ribbons on either side of the circle unfurl into their familiar form as Leo (now an updated, photorealistic CGI rendering of the 1957 lion footage) fades in and roars. The mask (once again redesigned, with a solid mouth this time) and leaf-like design around it grow and fade from the darkness, and the company name zooms out (just like the previous logo) and shines on top of the ribbon, with "<span style="font-family: 'Times New Roman';">{{Font color|gold|TRADE MARK}}</span>" fading in shortly after. The entire logo has a subtle golden shine around it. | '''Logo:''' On a black background, a golden, rounded square passes by, bringing in a bright light.

It's all | '''FX/SFX:''' The ribbon settling in place, the "Art for Art's Sake" reading turning to Latin when painted gold, the now CGI Leo himself appearing and roaring, and the text zooming out. It's all done in extraordinarily breathtaking, exceptionally well-done and absolutely majestic CGI animation. | ||
'''Music/Sounds:''' A majestic orchestral fanfare plays in the beginning (notably marking the first time the MGM lion's roar has been complimented with a proper fanfare), which ends in a somber, violin-esque descent as the 1995 roar track caps it off. | '''Music/Sounds:''' A majestic orchestral fanfare plays in the beginning (notably marking the first time the MGM lion's roar has been complimented with a proper fanfare), which ends in a somber, violin-esque descent as the 1995 roar track caps it off. | ||
