1st Logo (2000-200?)

Logo: On a tan background, we see the dark red text "FS FILM OY", with dark red outlined versions of the 20th Century Fox and Svensk Filmindustri logos on both sides of the text. Below it, we can also see the smaller "Video, DVD- ja elokuvavinkit" ("Video, DVD and movie tips") in Peignot, with "www.fs-film.fi" in the same font below it. The logo zooms in slowly, while shadows begin to appear behind logos and text, slowly becoming darker.

FX/SFX: The shadows of the logos and text fading in.

Music/Sounds: A long synth sound, that is followed by a high-pinched chime.

Availability: Uncommon. Can be found on TCF releases in Finland from the time, two examples being the VHS tapes for Home Alone 4 and The Day After Tomorrow.

Editor's Note: None.
