Background

In late 2005, Liberty International Entertainment was renamed to Liberation Entertainment under co-founder Jay Boberg. In America, all of the company's releases were distributed by Genius Products under its resurrected name. Once Genius crumbled in 2009, Liberation folded the same year, with its library being sold one year later to Camelot Entertainment Group, which in turn went on in 2013 to be acquired by Hollender's then-new outfit Multicom Entertainment.

1st Logo (2006-2007)


Logo: On a black background, we see a light shortly appearing in the center, and a blue rectangle rolling towards different directions as it moves towards the screen. It stops frontwise and the text "LIBERATION" appears, along with a yellow-green arrow with a cartoon hand holding a green torch on it, near said word on the left. The letters of the word "entertainment" come from the right towards beneath "LIBERATION" one by one to form it. The "TM" logo appears near the logo from the right, and a light appears on the top of the torch, followed by green fire.

Technique: CGI.

Music/Sounds: A drum roll, an explosion sound, sparkle and a sizzling sound for the flames.

Availability: Extinct.
