1st Logo (1992-2002)
Visuals: Same as the 1987 movie logo, but "INTERNATIONAL" appears below.
Variant: As with the standard version, a variant with the word "presents" in script would appear under the logo. Unlike the standard logo which ditched this variant after Disney acquired Miramax, Miramax International kept using this variant way after the Disney purchase.
Technique: Same as the 1987 movie logo.
Audio: Same as the 1987 movie logo.
Availability:
- It was mainly seen on theatrical prints of Miramax and Dimension films outside North America at the time.
- Despite the logo's domestic retirement in 1999, international releases kept using this logo until 2002, such as Spy Kids and Scary Movie on their Australian DVD releases, which were both issued by Roadshow Entertainment. This logo was last seen on the international re-release of the 1964 film A Hard Day's Night.
- The variant with "presents" underneath can be found on international prints of Faithful followed by the New Line Cinema and Savoy Pictures logos, as well as the 2001 Australian DVD release of Emma (1996).
2nd Logo (1999-2006)
Visuals: Same as the 1998 movie logo, but once again "INTERNATIONAL" appears below.
Technique: Same as the 1998 movie logo.
Audio: Same as the 1998 movie logo.
Availability: Mainly seen on theatrical prints of Miramax and Dimension films outside North America at the time as well as international trailers. Since 2006, international Miramax releases either use the domestic version or none at all.
