Nicknames: "CGI Eyemark", "CGI CBS Eyemark"
Logo: On a black background, the CBS eye, in its design from the 1995 CBS Video logo, appears on the left side of the screen while the word "EYE" zooms out from the right side followed by "MARK", both in bold gray lettering. We later see a shining wipe effect while the word "Entertainment" in non-bold Helvetica font fades in and zooms out. The byline "A Unit of CBS Enterprises" appears underneath "Entertainment".
Trivia: This logo co-existed with the 1995 CBS Broadcast International logo.
Variants:
