'''Visuals:''' In the top-left corner of a black background, there is a bright light flashing before our eyes. The light reveals the same "G Over Square" logo, but coloured {{color|#007BA7|cerulean}}, and solid rather than segmented. Again, the TV tube is drawn around the logo, but underneath a light draws a {{color|teal}}/{{color|magenta|dark pink}} line that starts downward, then upward, and then straight (like the 1970 and 1978 [[London Weekend Television|LWT]] logos). When the line is finished, another flash of light reveals the words "Guild Home Video" above the line, and below it another reveals "Quality Video Entertainment". The logo then sparkles a bit. | '''Visuals:''' In the top-left corner of a black background, there is a bright light flashing before our eyes.

'''Audio Variant:''' Sometimes, this is accompanied by an announcer saying, "Before you enjoy our main feature, here's a trailer from another major release from Guild, which is available at your local stockist now.". The announcer has an American accent, despite Guild being a British distributor (the same announcer is also heard in Guild's trailers as well). | '''Audio Variant:''' Sometimes, this logo is accompanied by an announcer saying, "Before you enjoy our main feature, here's a trailer from another major release from Guild, which is available at your local stockist now.".
