HIT Entertainment: Difference between revisions

'''Logo:''' On a {{Color|#00FFE9|teal}} marble-like background, a {{color|silver}} disc rotates into place. Then four {{color|lightblue|light blue}} lasers strike it from different directions. Then, the camera pans to an aerial view as the word "{{color|silver|'''HiT'''}}", in a tall {{Color|silver}} font, zooms out from the center from an angle, then rotates to face the viewers. As it does so, the four lasers rotate clockwise and "'''{{color|blue|COMMUNICATIONS PLC}}'''" types itself in, in {{color|blue}}.  

'''Logo:''' On a black background, the {{Color|#8FC5D5|bluish-gray}} letters of "'''HIT'''" fly outwards to the center to form a result similar to the previous logo, but with thinner letters and no dot. Below it all is "Distributed by HIT Entertainment PLC." in white, sometimes replaced with a black bar and the text changed to match the country's language.

'''Technique:''' All CGI.

'''Logo:''' On a shady {{color|dimgray|gray}} background, we see the word "'''{{color|blue|HiT}}'''" in the same font as the HIT Communtications logo in {{color|blue}}, with "ENTERTAINMENT PLC" written vertically next to the T in white. A hole is cut out in between the letters above the I for a spinning globe. Under that we see the URL "www.hitentertainment.com" and byline “DISTRIBUTED WORLDWIDE BY HIT ENTERTAINMENT PLC". There is a spotlight from the top left of the screen, casting a shadow of the logo on the floor.

*On some prints of ''Basket Fever'', the background is replaced with that of a background of the world map with "ENTERTAINMENT PLC" in black instead of white and the below text is omitted.

'''Availability:''' Extinct, because it only appeared in the unaired pilot to ''Bob the Builder''. The variant was seen on the aforementioned ''Professor Bubble''.

'''Logo:''' On a {{color|deepskyblue|blue}} background with stripes and shines, we see a {{color|gold|yellow}}/{{color|orange}} gradient ribbon flying around from the right edge of the screen. Then the ribbon makes its way to form the spring (or tunnel) and an explosion occurs. After that, we see more colorful ribbons (but smaller) and some fireworks and bubbles. Later, the camera moves into the center of the tunnel, then the tunnel disappears and from its place comes the globe which zooms into the hole in the HIT logo from the previous logos in {{color|deepskyblue|light blue}}, which fades in the same time as the globe comes. As it does so, the globe spins. The text "ENTERTAINMENT PLC" is written vertically next to the "T" in white, just like the 2nd and 4th logos until it is over.

*Full version: A big whoosh, then a variety of cartoon sound effects are heard whilst the items come out of the ribbon tunnel:

***The contrast of the logo varies depending on the year of release (2000-2002 has a {{Color|#005BFF|dark blue}} color scheme, while 2003-2006 has a {{Color|deepskyblue|light blue}} color scheme)

**The third variation is seen on several PBS airings. It is similar to the first two variations, but instead of the cloudy sky as the background, the {{Color|blue}} original background is seen on the logo.

*The direct-to-video (Netflix, Hulu, etc.), and some international versions of the 10th season episodes of ''Barney & Friends'', along with its related retail home videos from 2005-07 (such as ''Can You Sing That Song?'' (VHS version only), ''Let's Go to the Beach'', ''Let's Make Music'' and ''Let's Go to the Firehouse'') uses a short-lived HD version of the logo, with its URL and byline in bold (This is the final variation of the standard logo). The PBS and Sprout versions use the next logo (still or original). Universal Kids (in the USA, Canada, Mexico, Colombia, Argentina, and Brazil) reairings of this season also use this HD logo.
