2nd Logo (1998-March 9, 2008)

Visuals: There is an eye with a cloudy multicolored outline on a black background. The eye opens, revealing it to have a light blue iris. This eye then settles in a semicircle (of which is flesh tone to represent skin), and it zooms out a bit. As this is happening, "MINDS EYE" and "ENTERTAINMENT" underneath slowly appears below the semicircle, and another smaller semicircle of the same color appears below all of this.

Variants:

Early versions of the logo have it shown more closely where it is surrounded by aura in murky warm colors. The first and last letters of "MINDS EYE" are much larger than the rest and has a dot in between the letters.
On some films and TV shows, it has "PICTURES" instead of "ENTERTAINMENT".
There is a version that says "INTERNATIONAL" where the logo is in close-up form, the first and last letters of "MINDS EYE" are in equal size as the others, and the dot is omitted.
A shortened version where the formation is already completed is seen on TV shows.
