'''Logo:''' We fade in to a blue background, then the logo fades in with five, white horizontal lines with the word on it "Parade" in a script font, and the word underneath "VIDEOCASSETTES". The logo fades out, along with the background as the movie begins. | '''Logo:''' We fade in to a blue background, then the logo fades in with five, white horizontal lines with the word on it "Parade" in a script font, and the word underneath "VIDEOCASSETTES".

'''Logo:''' On a black background, pieces of what appears to be a metal starburst, which is mirrored at the middle, fly in and take over. After it forms, a black circle flies in like a butterfly. On it is the orange segmented text "PPI" and the blue cursive text "entertainment group" stacked under it. The circle then folds over itself and rotates to the center of the screen. It then flips over to the Parade Video logo, but the logo is flamingo pink filled with cornflower blue. The Parade Video logo then folds over itself as well and flies away to the center of the screen like a bird, leaving the background crumbles away. | '''Logo:''' On a black background, pieces of what appears to be a metal starburst, which is mirrored at the middle, fly in and take over.

'''Music/Sounds:''' An ambient sound at the beginning, before a reversed cymbal clash. This is followed by a cheesy and very loud synth trumpet fanfare, with the last note held out before ending with a cymbal crash and the ambient sound again. | '''Music/Sounds:''' An ambient sound at the beginning, before a reversed cymbal clash.

'''Logo:''' On an apricot-colored background with shadows of circles moving in it, we see a blue sphere and two odd-looking curvy shapes (one a yellow semicircle-like shape with a narrowed-out corner and the other is an orange boomerang-like shape). They all zoom out, turn 3D, and form a different PPI logo, consisting of an oval with a very curvy, italicized "P" inside. Then "PPI Entertainment" in black and in a sans serif typeface, appears underneath. The logo remains on-screen for a minute, then fades out. | '''Logo:''' On an apricot-colored background with shadows of circles moving in it, we see a blue sphere and two odd-looking curvy shapes (one a yellow semicircle-like shape with a narrowed-out corner and the other is an orange boomerang-like shape).

'''Music/Sounds:''' An upbeat jazz synth-piano and light drum beat tune. For the variants, same as the previous logo, but the shorter version uses the last few seconds of the aforementioned music. The still variant has the music from the promo. | '''Music/Sounds:''' An upbeat jazz synth-piano and light drum beat tune.
