'''Visuals:''' At dawn, the screen pans out from an ocean and zooms by a cable-stayed bridge. The sun appears, revealing a red tower shaped like the shape under the "Λ" in the 1st logo. As the screen zooms slowly onto the roadway, there is another tower just like the first one. The view gets on the highway and zooms out to see some cables. A sunburst occurs and a silver abstract "{{color|silver|Λ}}" is seen as "{{color|silver|RELI NCE}}" flips in beside the "{{color|silver|Λ}}". The sunburst dies down and "ENTERTAINMENT" appears below the company name. |
|||
'''Trivia:''' This was designed by Filmograph. It was [[DreamWorks Pictures]], not Reliance, who commissioned the new logo. The use of a bridge is symbolic of the close relationship between the two companies. |
|||
'''Variants:''' |
|||
*A still version was seen on some films. |
|||
*On ''The House with a Clock in its Walls'', it has a slight tint of yellow. It cuts out early after it forms as usual. |

|||

|||
*On ''The Fabelmans'', the logo's first seconds are cut. |

'''Technique:''' CGI outsourced by Filmograph to Run, Kick, Shout!. |
|||
'''Logo:''' On a black background, a gradient blue rectangle fades in. In it is the text "ReLIΛNCe". The A has a red triangle in it. The rectangle slowly zooms in and shines. "Entertainment" fades in below the rectangle. |
|||
'''Audio:''' A majestic reorchestrated version of the Reliance jingle, with repeating synth piano notes at the end. Composed by Ramin Djawadi. |
|||
'''Variant:''' A still variant has been spotted on some films, as well as ''Electric City''. |
|||
''' |
'''Audio Variants:''' |
||
*On ''Walking with Dinosaurs'', the first film to use this logo, the fanfare sounds a bit reorchestrated. |
|||
*On ''The House with a Clock in its Walls'' variant, tick-tocking sounds are heard over it (referencing the film's title). The bell starts tolling to sync with the logo cutting to black and the following opening credits. |
|||
* On some other movies (including the ''1917'' variant), the opening theme of the movie is used. |
|||
*Most movies such as ''The Fifth Estate'' have the logo silent. |

|||
*On early movie trailers with this logo, it is silent. |

|||
*On ''The Fabelmans'', it is again cut short, only that it syncs to the animation. |
|||
*On ''The Last Voyage of the Demeter'', the ending part of the fanfare trails off into the film's opening theme. |
