Logo description and capture by kidinbed
Logo video courtesy of PalaceRoadshow
Background: First Release Home Entertainment was a division of RCA Columbia Pictures Hoyts Video.
1st (and possibly only) Logo
(1988-1992)
Nicknames: "Laser Shooting Stars", "Neon Star", "I Laserwrote a Star!"
Logo: On a black background, a star shoots across the screen with a laserlike pink line trailing behind it. Then, two stars shoot across the screen with green and yellow lines trailing behind them. Another star shoots with a red line. After that one more star shoots with a blue line, forming an abstract pattern. Then, the middle of the pattern is illuminated, and it looks like a blue star. Four stars then fly near the big star, with red, yellow, pink and green trails. A flash occurs and the words
appear under the resulting star.
Variant: At the beginning of tapes, after the logo forms a blue star shoots on "HOME ENTERTAINMENT", the text fades out and the words
FX: The stars shooting across the screen, the flash, and in the variant, the fading.
Music/Sounds: An extremely catchy techno ditty with a few laser sound effects. This is slightly shorter for the closing variant.
Availability: On old Aussie PAL tapes. Check ebay.com.au!
Scare Factor: None for most people; the techno music is very fun to listen to. But if you're not a big fan of lasers, it would be minimal to low.
