'''Logo:''' On a {{color|blue}}/black gradient background with {{color|blue}} rectangular blocks at the bottom, {{color|gold}} lines appear from the lower left-hand corner and become a series of {{color|gold}} bars as a {{color|silver}} sphere flies above in shadow. The bars disappear and reappear at a different position, then fly to the right, reappear at a further distance from the camera, and fly towards the lower right-hand corner. Then a stylized "{{color|gold|V}}" that vaguely resembles a "{{color|gold|U}}" with both ends bent outward files in from the left, and the {{color|silver}} sphere floats down and through it as the {{color|gold}} bars settle within the "{{color|gold|V}}". As this happens, the action fades to a white screen with a {{color|red}} segmented trapezoid with a curved bottom and a white segmented circle within. That zooms out, and "'''VIDEOVISA'''" in black flips in below.
'''Variant:''' On some early tapes, the whole thing fades to a {{color|blue}} screen as "PRESENTA" in white spins in.
'''Technique:''' CGI for the first half, and 2D animation for the second half.
'''Music/Sounds:''' Ten bars of synthesized warbling, followed by a synth-pop fanfare.
'''Availability:''' Rare. Seen on some Mexican videocassettes at the time, including ''Footloose'' and ''Song of the South'', among others.

'''Logo:''' On a black screen, {{color|gold}} bars (more elaborate than in the previous logo) appear from the top and criss-cross with each other, revealing a 3D {{color|gold}} version of the segmented trapezoid with the circle within. "{{color|gold|VIDEOVISA}}" zooms out below.
'''Technique:''' CGI animation.
'''Music/Sounds:''' In its first year, a hard synth rock piece was used. Later on, a brass-heavy synth-pop fanfare was used.
'''Availability:''' More common than the previous logo, but still somewhat rare. Like the last logo, this was seen on Mexican videocassettes at the time, including ''Robin Hood'' and ''Cinderella'', among others.

'''Logo:''' Against a {{color|blue}} screen, the logo from before zooms in spinning before settling in the center. When it does, it cuts to the warning.
'''Variant:''' On [[Sony Pictures Home Entertainment|Columbia TriStar Home Video]] releases, such as ''The Swan Princess'', the background is the same black-{{color|blue}} gradient as the 1993 CTHV logo.
'''Technique:''' 2D animation.
'''Music/Sounds:''' A loud synthesized whoosh.
'''Availability:''' Seen on later VideoVisa tapes, including ''Mary Poppins'' and ''Goofy's All-Star Olympics''.
