Logo (December 17, 1984-1986)
Visuals: Over a black background, there is a golden stylized, connected "EP", then a blue light streak flies from top-right, and it flashes. The blue light streak flies from bottom-left and sweeps out the text "ENTERTAINMENT PARTNERS", in gold, fading in beside the "P".
Variant:
- On a 3rd January 1991 Thames airing of the 1986 TV movie The Last Days of Patton, this logo fades into the 1990 Thames Television Presentation endcap.
- A closing version exists where the "EP" zooms out on a black background and the text "A FUISZ•KELMAN•STORKE ENTERTAINMENT PARTNERS PRODUCTION" appears in blue
Technique: Backlit cel animation.
Audio: Often seen silent.
Audio Variant:
- A variant with a futuristic-sounding fanfare exists, which also contains phaser-like noises.
- The closing variant featured a drum note and a cymbal crash.
Availability: It appears on the 20th Century Fox DVD release of A Christmas Carol with George C. Scott and the old CBS/Fox VHS release of The Last Days of Patton. Also seen on The Ted Kennedy Jr. Story.
