1st Logo (September 5, 2000-2003)

Nickname: "Newmarket Splash"

Logo: A bright light flash occurs and the word "NEWMARKET" appears in a shiny white font (sometimes with orange glimpse). There is a dim, full width line right below the word.

FX/SFX: The splash.

Music/Sounds: A harsh string with windy sounds, or nothing.

Availability: Seen on the company's early films, like Cruel Intentions 2, Stark Raving Mad, Memento, and Donnie Darko (the director's cut uses the next logo).

2nd Logo (2003-May 13, 2011)

Nickname: "Newmarket Piano"

Logo: On white blocks, several orange plates appear like in a vertical piano board, then they zoom out and rotate 90 degrees clockwise. Other letters glow up, and we can read "NEWMARKET FILMS", with "T" and "F" connected. The three blocks appeared first are now horizontal up to "F". The logo then fades out.

FX/SFX: The blocks lighting up.

Music/Sounds: Electronic beeping with whooshes and it ends with a piano theme, or the opening theme of the movie.

Availability: Seen on later films from the company, such as The Nines.
