Logo: On the starry space setting, with the blue centrestar glowing, the letters of the word "ALIB" in "ALIBABA" revealed by the light at bottom-left. The light moves slightly right as the rest of the logo fades in. It consists of the icon of the main company Alibaba Group (the letter "A", drawn by whose turning into a filmstrip with the face of the smiling man), and the words "ALIBABA PICTURES", with the trademark symbol next to the "S" in "PICTURES", underneath it.

Variants:

• Sometimes, the blue centrestar & the light is absent, and the Chinese translation "阿里巴巴 影业集团", with the trademark symbol next to it, is added underneath the company name.
• The Chinese text may also read "阿里巴影业"
• TBA.

Technique: Not much lighting and the revealing by fading in.

Music/Sounds: The opening theme.

Availability: Current. Debuted on Mission: Impossible - Rogue Nation (domestic releases used the normal version; international releases used the variant). So far, the variation can be seen on Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles: Out of the Shadows, Star Trek Beyond and Next Gen.
