First Look Studios

Background
Overseas Filmgroup was an Los Angeles based film company that was established in the early 1980s. In January 2001, it was renamed as one of its subsidiaries and became First Look Media (not to be confused with the news organization of the same name). It eventually became a subsidiary of the Calfornian home distribution company Ventura Distribution, before becoming independent again in 2006 as Ventura folded. In 2010, First Look went bankrupt. The sister company Millennium Films acquired the film library and all assets of First Look, eventually being reorganized as a full-on distribution company itself. In 2015, Millennium Entertainment was renamed to Alchemy. Sometime afterwards, Alchemy folded.

Editor's Note: This is a good logo, especially the triangle.

2nd Logo (2001-2006)

Editor's Note: This is a nice logo with the purple glass.

3rd Logo (2006-2010)
Nicknames "The Eye II", "The Sea", "The Sunrise"

Logo: We see an image of a sea at sunrise with clouds moving. Then, the area around the screen darkens, and a bright flash occurs as it goes into an image of a eye. The lens flare moves off to the right as "FIRST LOOK STUDIOS" fades in above and below, respectively.

Variant: There's a variant in which "PICTURES" appears in place of "STUDIOS". This is usually seen on trailers.

FX/SFX: The sea, the clouds moving, the lens flaring.

Editor's Note: This is a awesome logo, especially the image of the green eye.
