We see a book with its bottom side facing us, on the bottom half of the screen. As we zoom out it opens up and the pages turn, while a {{color|gold|yellow}} pie-shaped sun flies up from the book, whose pages rise up and turn {{color|gold|yellow}}. As this happens, the background becomes completely black. The pages and sun turn {{color|gold|golden}} (or at least a recreation) as a {{color|gold|golden}} rounded rectangle border zooms out and encloses the elements, with a space left where a ray of light wipes "{{color|gold|GOLDEN}}" in a Serif Gothic-like font below it. The rounded rectangle "morphs" into a TV tube as "{{color|gold|GOLDEN}}" zooms out to make way for "{{color|gold|BOOK}}" which is wiped on similarly, and "{{color|gold|VIDEO}}" which zooms out below that, with a shadow effect. The logo shines several times. | ||
'''Opening Variant:''' On ''Campfire Thrillers'', after the logo is completely formed, the black background fades to a darkened sky background seen in the film's opening sequence, with the logo superimposed over it. When the logo and music ends, the logo fades out and the video's opening titles start over the sky background. | '''Opening Variant:''' On ''Campfire Thrillers'', after the logo is completely formed, the black background fades to a darkened sky background seen in the film's opening sequence, with the logo superimposed over it.

Suddenly a comet appears and flies towards the center of the screen. When it reaches the center it "blows up"--i.e., there is a flash and the screen turns a {{color|yellow|yellowish}} tint, and a few {{color|gold|yellow}} streaks emerge from the center and fly toward the screen, slightly moving left as they do so. A large Golden Book Video logo glowing {{color|blue}} zooms-out as the yellowish tint fades. The logo shines and zooms out with a {{color|gold|yellow}} shadow effect. | ||

At the same time, the text "FAMILY ENTERTAINMENT" below in the Gill Sans font slides in from the opposite direction. When they both meet in the center, the whole logo "flashes" (a la the Cartoon Classics variant of the [[Walt Disney Home Video]] Neon Mickey logo). | ||

We see the top of a lowercase "{{color|gold|{{Font|Times New Roman|g}}}}" in Times New Roman peeking over the top of the book, then jumps up from below, picks up the book, opens it, and hops up a few spaces to make way for "Golden Books" written in golden and in the same font as before (the "{{color|gold|{{Font|Times New Roman|g}}}}" watches as the text is written). "FAMILY ENTERTAINMENT" appears below that as the "{{color|gold|{{Font|Times New Roman|g}}}}" looks back into the book. The end result is similar to the current Golden Books logo. | ||
