The logo sparkles three times in sync with the fanfare. Then, a four-pointed star appears below the logo and flies across the screen from left to right, wiping in the words "{{color|navy|Media Home Entertainment Inc.}}" in similar font and coloring. The logo sparkles some more and briefly glows pink. | ||
'''Trivia:''' "MEDA" is not a misspelling. Meda was the name of founder Charles Band's then-wife, '''Meda''' Band, and it also serves as a play on words, since "MEDA" can also be phonetically interpreted as "ME-D-A" (i.e., "Media"). It's also the shorthand form for its full name at inception, '''M'''edia-Home '''E'''ntertainment and '''D'''istribution '''A'''ssociation. | '''Trivia:''' "MEDA" is not a misspelling.

The two words continue their merge into each other, and then a stream of orange laser beams pass through the merged outlines. Then the top of the logo leans backward at an angle, and a stream of pink laser beams cause the outline to flash, resulting in the complete logo which is a silver chrome with a {{color|lightskyblue|light blue}} glow. The bottom text "MEDIA HOME ENTERTAINMENT, INC." (in black but also glowing {{color|lightskyblue|light blue}}) zooms in from the center of the screen. | ||
'''Trivia:''' According to an uploading of the logo's slate by YouTuber LogicSmash, the logo was animated by Lumeni Productions of Glendale, California, with an Oxberry camera being used to photograph the animation. The slate is dated December 14, 1980. | '''Trivia:''' According to an uploading of the logo's slate by YouTuber LogicSmash, the logo was animated by Lumeni Productions of Glendale, California, with an Oxberry camera being used to photograph the animation.
