1st Logo (2011-2018)
Logo: On a black background we see a circle brighting up which reveals to be a circle with a swirled "e" on it. Then two more circles appering from the left and right one with the letter "N" on it and one with the letter "Times New Roman" appering in a serif font. Then the sparks burst out turning the three circles turning them into, and purple with the CGI gradient sparkles appering across the screen. Then the background changes into white with some of the sparkles in color and the three balls forms the word "NeTimes New Roman" with the letter "N" now pixelated and the swirled "e" is now yellow on a red circle with the word "It's" appering on the left center and the text "NEXT ENTERTAINMENT WORLD" appears underneath the three circles.
