'''Editor's Note:''' This was most likely a placeholder logo, as Disney introduced the Touchstone name and logo less than a month before the release of ''Splash'', which explains its static nature. The pink color scheme for the background is very 1980s.

'''Logo:''' We start on a {{Font color|blue|blue}} background, which then shrinks into a ball on a black background zooms out into the upper center portion of the screen. After it takes a small dip, it heads toward the background where it flashes and turns into the thunderball from the 1st logo. The thunderbolts shine as the background lightens up with salmon concentric circles, which get dimmer the farther out they go. "{{Font color|navy|TOUCHSTONE FILMS}}" at the bottom in {{Font color|navy|navy}} blue text, then fades in below.
