Logo: On a black/blue scrolling background with a yellow moving line and semi-transparent binary digits, we see the outline of the word "wamo". Said word then moves on to the outline. There is now a galaxy background. A line fades in below the logo. Under this, "WARNER ADVANCED MEDIA OPERATIONS" and "MULTIMEDIA CENTER" (and the DVD logo) fades in.
Variant: A still version exists. This version adds "Compression, Authoring & Design Services" below the logo.
FX/SFX: The moving and fading. None for the still version.
Music/Sounds: A whoosh sound.
Availability: Uncommon. Seen on releases from Artisan Entertainment such as the 1999 Special Edition DVD of Dirty Dancing and the Ultimate Edition of Terminator 2: Judgment Day. It can also be found on releases from New Line, MGM and WB Music. The still version is seen on the 2001 Australian DVD of The Blues Brothers and is also seen on the UK DVD of Dr. Seuss' How The Grinch Stole Christmas,along with otherDVDs released when Columbia Tristar distributed Universal DVDs in those 2 countries.
Editor's Note: None.

Background: Warner Advanced Media Operations (WAMO) was the DVD manufacturing unit of WEA International (today Warner Music Group), at the time a division of TimeWarner. The company was founded in 1991 as a Laserdisc manufacturing facility, before moving on to DVD production in the late 1990s, and with that they developed some of the first DVDs. In 2003, WAMO, along with its parent company WEA Manufacturing, was sold to Cinram International. The two companies would remain as the property of Cinram until they declared bankruptcy in 2012, eventually to be bought by Technicolor three years later.
