In 1967, Warner Bros. merged with Seven Arts to form Warner Bros. -Seven Arts. Similar to the previous logo, this one would mostly be set over the opening scene of a movie.
1970–1972
Between 1970 and 1972, Warner Bros. used its corporate logo on-screen. However, the "Warner Bros." name in the banner is replaced by the byline "A Kinney National Company".
1972–1973
Used on some films from 1972 and 1973. It looks identical to the classic 1948 shield, but it lacks a banner, which makes it the first logo since the 1934 logo to lack a banner.
1973–1984
Designed by Saul Bass, this logo was used on films from 1973 to 1984, when it was replaced with the classic 1948 shield.
1984–2001
The classic 1948 shield design was brought back for the film, Swing Shift in 1984 (with some minor changes). It would continue to be concurrently used with the studio's next logo until 2001, when AOL merged with Time Warner (now WarnerMedia). This is the most famous "Classic Logo" of the company. The design became so emblematic that other Warner Bros. divisions used the same style in their logos and it was also used in the famous "Water Tower" from Warner Bros. Studios for decades until 2019. It was also used in Space Jam (1996) alongside the infamous bullseye in the Looney Tunes/Merrie Melodies opening title cards as part of the gate when the Nerdlucks and Michael Jordan enter Looney Tune Land. The last film to regularly use this logo as an opening on-screen logo was The Postman.
2020–2023
The current design, known as Dimensional, is a three-dimensional variation of the present-day Warner Bros. shield designed by Pentagram on November 13, 2019. Initially, the previous logo is remained in use as a primary design; the current logo was relegated as a print logo for promotional use until mid-2020. The "WB" text and the border of the shield are now colored silver and the inside of the shield is now a bright blue. It is also the first logo since 1972 to completely lack a banner.
2023–present
In 2023, the on-screen logo was replaced with a CGI version of the shield from the Warner Bros. Discovery logo that features a banner with the company's name; resembling the previous logos, most notably the 1948–2020 logo. This logo was showcased in the trailer of the Filipino film Mallari (albeit a variant), then officially debuted in Wonka, released in Spain on December 06, 2023.
