Logo descriptions by Reactor37654Videos by mr3uriousBackground: This company is not related to
Rainbow Releasing.
1st Logo
(1990's)
Logo: On a slowly zooming space background, we see a spinning cube with rainbow patterns on each of its sides. A golden parallelogram with "RAINBOW" in a connected letter font (a la Lorimar) emerges from the bottom of the screen and positions itself below the spinning cube. The parallelogram shines before the logo fades to black.
FX: The zooming background, spinning cube, and shining.
Cheesy Factor: Very dated logo, even by '90s standards. This logo could have been easily done in the '70s.
Music/Sounds: A synthesized percussion tune with chimes.
Availability: It was associated with Southern Star and Hanna Barbera releases in Australia, so it might be on some of those tapes.
Scare Factor: None; the music is actually calming.
2nd Logo
(2005?- )
Logo: On a black background, we see a golden parallelogram with "RAINBOW" on it (same design as the previous logo) fade in. A circle with a rainbow pattern opens up behind the parallelogram like an eye while a very blurry "ENTERTAINMENT" in black with white outlines zooms out below the parallelogram, slowly increasing its focus. The top of the parallelogram shines, and the circle turns around like a 2-D image.
FX: The shining, zooming out, and focus increasing.
Cheesy Factor: See above.
Music/Sounds: A tune sounding similar to the
Sony Computer Entertainment logo before breaking into a rock-like drum tune.
Availability: This one might be seen on some Aussie PAL DVD releases.
Scare Factor: None.
