2nd Logo (October 30, 2007-January 22, 2013, May 8, 2016-January 14, 2018)
Visuals: There is a rippling ocean with a dark shaded circular object in the middle. The shade then narrows and curves counterclockwise. It curves clockwise, and upon completing its curve, dark blue silhouettes of three leaping dolphins form. The screen flashes as we transition to a white background, with the dolphins becoming thin, uncolored lines. The company name, with "DOLPHIN" on top in large, light blue, slim text and "entertainment" in small, dark blue, thick text below it, ripples in. Variant: There's a short version that has only the logo forming.

Technique: 2D computer animation.

Logo (December 25, 2013, October 14, 2016)
Visuals: Underwater, there is a dolphin swimming. Another dolphin ends up joining, then a third. They then leap out of the ocean onto a light blue background, where they become 2D, and the ocean becomes a line that shines and waves like water. The text "DOLPHIN FILMS" zooms to the sides of the dolphins, "DOLPHIN" being in skinny light blue text and "FILMS" thick dark blue. The logo shines.

Technique: CGI by Creative Capers Entertainment.

Audio: None or the opening theme.

Availability: Seen on Justin Bieber's Believe and Max Steel.
