Logo: Same as the Columbia TriStar Home Video of the time, except that the cloud box zooms out earlier, and "HOME VIDEO" is changed to
fades in, and is in 2D.
Technique: CGI animation.
Music/Sounds: Same as the 1993 CTHV logo, but sped-up.
Availability: Extinct.
Logo: On the background of the 1993 Columbia Pictures logo, we see a still shot of the Torch Lady on the left with the logo's clouds behind her and the TriStar Pegasus on the right, without clouds. We them see the animation of the TriStar Pegasus unfolding its wings just like the 1993 theatrical logo. Above them, panning back, is the text "COLUMBIA TRISTAR INTERNATIONAL TELEVISION". Below the waist of the Torch Lady is the underlined text "LIGHTING UP SCREENS", with "AROUND THE" under the word "SCREENS", and "WORLD" in a huge font with the planet Earth rotating and panning back into several rings to represent the letter "O" under it. All the text excluding the company name is in gold and in the Trajan Pro font, and appears somewhat like this:
Technique: CGI animation.
Music/Sounds: The shortened or the long version of the Columbia TriStar Television Distribution theme.
Availability: Extremely rare.
Logo: It's the same as the 1997 CTHV logo, except the stacked words "INTERNATIONAL TELEVISION" replace "HOME VIDEO" and the words "Columbia Tristar" and "International Television" are shown in the middle sliding in slowly from the left and right of the screen respectively as the logo animates. In the middle is a black rounded code-out box with the white word "Columbia" inside, which then changes into "Tristar". Then the words disappear before the logo forms.
Variants:
Technique: CGI animation.
Music/Sounds: The same Madchester beat from the 1997 CTHV logo.
Availability: Extremely rare.
Logo: A flash occurs. Then, in a "swirly" black-blue background, a few light blue outlined boxes slowly slide in different directions, revealing a white rectangle with dark cyan print boxes of the Columbia and TriStar logos, respectively. Above the white rectangle, the words "COLUMBIA TRISTAR" in a white Bank Gothic MD BT font appear via a flash-like effect. Under the rectangle, "INTERNATIONAL TELEVISION" appears in the same fashion.
Technique: 2D computer animation.
Music/Sounds: Possibly none. The promos that use this logo usually have the ending theme of the trailer alongside an announcer saying a tagline along the lines of "Available from Columbia TriStar International Television".
Availability: Near extinction. The only known evidence of this logo is from a set of promos at Nxtbook.com, among other logos. One of the trailers which had this logo was Ihaka: Blunt Instrument.
Logo: The screen flashes quickly, revealing the same background as the 4th logo, with some connected circles spinning, and a CBS Broadcast International-esque Earth globe spinning, both slowly zooming in. The words "COLUMBIA TRISTAR" and "INTERNATIONAL TELEVISION", in a different Bank Gothic typeface, appear at the upper and lower sides of the screen, respectively. Two white lines of light cross each other to form a TV tube-esque shape with the Columbia logo (which is still) at the left side and the TriStar logo (which is also still) at the right side. The lines of light fade out later.
Technique: CGI animation.
Music/Sounds: Possibly none.
Availability: Same as the 4th logo.
Logo: Against a orange or plum purple background, the print Columbia and TriStar boxes filled with vermillion or pink zooms out, along with the following text:
Two vermillion or pink parentheses facing both sides cross each other to fill the boxes with orange or plum purple.
Variant: There is one variant where the parentheses are blinking.
Technique: 2D computer animation.
Music/Sounds: It's probably the same as the CTT logo of the time.
Availability: Same as the 4th and 5th logos. The orange blinking variant was spotted on a promo for Mary Hartman, Mary Hartman, and a promo for The Jeffersons.
Logo: Exactly the same as the 1999 second filmed version of the Columbia TriStar Television logo except the stacked words "INTERNATIONAL TELEVISION" replaced either the words "TELEVISION" or "DOMESTIC TELEVISION" and the Sony byline is intact.
Technique: Computer animation.
Music/Sounds: The same as the 1994 CTT logo theme except played at a noticeable higher pitch (possibly because it aired on TV in a PAL or SECAM-format country, though the same pitch might also be seen in NTSC-format countries).
Music/Sounds Variant: In other cases, it used only the closing theme of the show or none, as in the case of season 1 episodes of Sue Thomas' F.B. Eye.
Availability: Extremely rare.
