<u>Logo:</u> The screen fades to a space background as a large pink/purple "sun" slowly moves towards us. After a few seconds of sizzling, it then transforms into the words "FAMILY HOME", set in "Baby Teeth" (whose digital incarnation goes by "Surfside"), a font very reminiscent of ''Pac-Man''. Then "ENTERTAINMENT" in the same font flies from behind the text on top of the screen and settles underneath the "FAMILY HOME" text. The logos then flash and become white. After a few seconds the logo flies up with computer effects and we are left with only a shot of the stars before we fade out. | <u>Logo:</u> The screen fades to a space background as a large pink/purple "sun" slowly moves towards us.

*At the end of some tapes such as ''Beauty and the Beast'' (the 1983 Ruby-Spears version), the "Prevues of Coming Attractions" ID (which was also used on Warner Home Video releases, albeit with a different soundtrack) fades to this logo at the part wherethe "sun" appears. This also appeared on tapes from Monterey Home Video and U.S.A. Home Video from before 1985. | *At the end of some tapes such as ''Beauty and the Beast'' (the 1983 Ruby-Spears version), the "Prevues of Coming Attractions" ID (which was also used on Warner Home Video releases, albeit with a different soundtrack) fades to this logo at the part wherethe "sun" appears.

<u>FX/SFX:</u> The transformation of the star into "FAMILY HOME ENTERTAINMENT" and the "flying" effects for the logos. All really cheap, but pretty unique as well. | <u>FX/SFX:</u> The transformation of the star into "{{font color|purple|'''FAMILY HOME'''}} {{font color|green|'''ENTERTAINMENT'''}}" and the "flying" effects for the logos.

<u>Music/Sounds:</u> The space background has electronic popping/fizz noises. When the logo forms, a 4-note synthesized chord/whoosh fanfare can be heard, which came from a stock music library. | <u>Music/Sounds:</u> The space background has electronic popping/fizz noises.
