Background
HIT Video was the home media unit of HIT Entertainment that was founded in 1997 using funding that HIT Entertainment used from the Alternative Investment Market.
The name was retired after 2000, when the company began using their standard name and logos for de-facto purposes.
(1997-2000)
_VHS_UK_Logo.jpg){kind=logo}
Nicknames: "The Red Fireworks", "HIT Stars", "HIT Video"
Logo: This is the same as the 1997 HIT Entertainment logo, but the ribbon is colored completely red, the explosions are heavier and red as well, and several gold stars are added. There are small ribbons and fireworks that come out of the spinning tunnel. Then the words "ENTERTAINMENT PLC" are replaced by "VIDEO" and the globe is replaced by a gold star. Also, the HIT logo is in red instead of light blue. There are also three gold stars on the "T" and a smaller star to the right. The star in the hole shines slightly and the small one next to the "T" glows.
Variants:
- A shorter version exists, this was mainly used between promos.
- At the end of Kipper: Christmas Eve, the URL "www.hitentertainment.com" fades in at the top of the logo.
FX/SFX: Same as the 1997 HIT Entertainment logo.
Music/Sounds: The HIT Entertainment 1997 fanfare.
Availability: Used only in the UK. It appears on VHS tapes of Brambly Hedge, Percy the Park Keeper, Kipper and Bob the Builder until 2000.
Editor's Note: This logo is way more powerful than its original counterpart. The bombastic music and heavy explosions, along with the stars, make this logo a complete winner. For some young viewers, the atmosphere might scare some.
