'''Logo:''' On a black background, a light shines on a dark crystal mountain with 2 smaller ones beside it and 3 small red ones under it. A director's chair appears in the large red mountain and the crystal text "Alexander" zooms and swirls into place. The mountains disappear and the text and chair below light streaks and zoom in. While that happens, 2 Chinese characters zoom out and the rest folds out in gold and the mountains shine in.

Visuals: There is an eight-pointed star rotating on a foggy background, as lights illuminate the background and a lens flare moves around from top to bottom. The star stops rotating and a light appears behind, as they move above a bit to fit into a zooming-out square frame, and the words "FILMKO PICTURES" in the Gill Sans font and "presents" in the Times New Roman font, fade in below.

Technique: CGI.

Audio: A whoosh, then a dark, ringing synth drone, then some more whooshes.

2nd Logo (October 16, 2003-2016)


Visuals: On a starry background, a crystal eight-pointed star with lights surrounding it is seen on the center and rotates to face the screen. The stars fade out and a metallic square fades behind the logo. "FILMKO" in the Century Gothic font and two Chinese characters fade in below.

Variant: In the logo's later years, the CGI is improved and "FILMKO" is in the Lithos font, and the square logo and "FILMKO" would slide in together.

Audio: Same as before.

Audio Variants:

  • On the later variant until The Monkey King 2, the logo is seen silent.
