It is currently the British distributor for [[Walt Disney Studios Home Entertainment]] and its sister labels, including 20th, through Elevation Sales, a joint venture with [[StudioCanal]]. |

1st Logo (1999-2004)
Visuals: Against a dark blue starfield background, several stars swirl around to form the Lionsgate lion logo, which zooms out. Some more stars that turn from white to gold zoom out and arrange themselves on the logo, and the words "LIONS GATE FILMS" (with "GATE" in Garamond) flash in at the top right of the lion. A burst of light wipes in a white line with "HOME ENTERTAINMENT" and the byline "A LIONS GATE ENTERTAINMENT COMPANY" underneath it. The words sparkle a bit.
Technique: CGI.
Audio: A majestic, ethereal synth theme, coupled with whooshing and shining sounds. Composed by Robert J. Walsh. On some Canadian releases from that time period such as the VHS releases of Stickin' Around: Volume 2 and Volume 3, it uses the music from the Avalanche Home Entertainment logo with additional sound effects added.
