2nd Logo (1972-1978)
.jpg){kind=logo}
Visuals: Over a red or orange background, there are the stacked words "DISTRIBUTED BY", arranged to the right. To the right of the text, there is a black filmstrip, over which the the stacked name "TIME LIFE FILMS" is seen, with "TIME" and "LIFE" separated by a line. Below the name, there is a rainbow-colored camera shutter.
Technique: A still card produced on print.
Audio: None.
Availability: It was seen on some afterschool specials and episodes of NOVA distributed by this company, but most footage of these programs have been out of circulation for a long time.
3rd Logo (May 2, 1978?-1982)

.jpg)
Visuals: On a black background, a white, conjoined, slanted "TL" (with the "L" connected near the end of the "T") zooms into place onto a television-like box with a red screen in the center, forming trails of itself as it moves (a la the 1977 Filmways logo). Once it reaches the screen, it quickly flashes and merges with the box to form the logo. The text "A TIME-LIFE FILMS PRODUCTION" appears underneath the logo when it completes its formation.
Variants:
- On some movies, a copyright stamp is seen.
- An in-credit variant of this logo exists.
Technique: Slit-scan and camera-controlled animation.
Audio: None or the closing music of the movie.
Availability: Seen at the end of some Time-Life produced movies, most notably Fort Apache, the Bronx.
