1st Logo (1991-2000s)

Visuals: On a black background, a yellow-red gradient star flies in with the head of an eagle on the top left. The word "EAGLE ENTERTAINMENT" slides in from the left, and the word "Excellence in video" slides in from the right. The logo then flips away.

Technique: 2D computer animation

Audio: A synth fanfare with bongos.

2nd Logo (2000s)

Visuals: On a black background, there is an Earth globe. The words "EAGLE" in a futuristic font flying in from the globe, then the words "ENTERTAINMENT" fades in, and then the text "movies for a new generation" fades in below the text, which flies into the center of the globe and the action freezes.

Technique: CGI.

Audio: A whooshing sound, followed by several ascending synth notes and chimes.

Availability: Can be seen on several later Eagle Entertainment VHS and early DVDs like Rated X.

3rd Logo (2000s-)

Visuals: On a white background, there is a blue-tinted image of the same eagle from the previous logos flipping in. Then a blue square draws in, while the eagle stops flipping, and another blue rectangle draws in with the word "EAGLE" wipes in, followed by the word "ENTERTAINMENT" wipes in. The logo shines.

Technique: 2D computer animation.

Audio: A descending synth tune, followed by a synth flute.
