Background

Dorling Kindersley Vision was a media division of the Dorling Kindersley publishing company, founded in 1991. They were known for producing educational TV shows and videos including Eyewitness, Amazing Animals, Dig & Dug with Daisy and See How They Grow.

1st Logo (1992-1998?)

• 

Visuals: On a white background, the camera pans down to a CGI book, which opens up and starts flipping pages, eventually revealing the letters "DK" in gold with a divided grid-like pattern underneath them. As this occurs, the words “DORLING KINDERSLEY Vision" in grey fade in underneath.

Variants:

• This logo sometimes appears as a still image after the end credits.
• A closing variant exists, where the animation is reversed with the label name omitted.

Technique: CGI.

Audio: Two notes that sound like bells followed by some descending chimes, ending with a single flute note.

Audio Variants:

• Sometimes, the ending theme plays over the logo, or the logo is silent.
• The closing variant has the same music without the flute note.

Availability:

• Seen on VHS releases of Eyewitness, Dig & Dug with Daisy, and See How They Grow.

2nd Logo (April 16, 1996-1999)

Visuals: Just the print version of the Dorling Kindersley logo, with the letters "DK" in red, along with the Partridge Films logo underneath it.

Technique: A digital graphic.

Audio: The ending theme of the show.

Availability:

• Seen exclusively after the end credits of Amazing Animals.
• Any Henry's Amazing Animals VHS releases released during the show's run on the Disney Channel also retain this logo.
