The identity of the film concern is stable. It was almost always associated with the image of the shield in which the abbreviated name of the company is located. Otherwise, everything is variable, since from time to time, a tape, then a text, then an edging, then an image of a building appeared on it. The exception was two periods when there were attempts to replace the shield with the W7 and Big W signs.
Several types of fonts resemble the various lettering on the Warner Brothers emblem. These include the eponymous font, Goudy, Charter, Dubba Dubba, and Seven Arts.
The color scheme is stable and most often consists of a combination of black and white. Red, yellow, orange, and blue were also used.
== Trivia ==
* In Space Jam: A New Legacy, the still version of the current logo without the WarnerMedia byline is shown on a boardroom monitor at the end of the Warner 3000 pitch, with a different shield animation at the end, transitioning into the same logo as shown above. The same studio lot shown in the logo was also shown during the scene leading into the Warner Bros. Serververse. The cloud background in the logo (with the WB shield covered up by windows) was used as the desktop background in a Dell monitor on the Warner Bros. executive's computer. Furthermore, the entire studio lot made another appearance in A Hollywood Christmas.
* The logo depicts the sun rising over the Cahuenga Pass to the south. In real life, the sun rises in the east, over the Forest Lawn Cemetery and the Walt Disney Studios.
* CGI by Devastudios (who previously animated the logos for Lionsgate Films and Paramount Pictures). Due to COVID-19 restrictions, the backlot was created using drone footage, original blueprints from the Warner Bros. Studio Facilities and available photography and videography from Warner Bros. Studio Tour Hollywood and Google Earth, all in order to reconstruct it in CGI. The sky and clouds were created with Terragen from Planetside Software. 
** Considered to be an exceptionally beautiful and much more fulfilling effort from Warner Bros, this time around, with more realistic effects, stunning CGI and a fresh take on the fanfare.
