1st Logo (1989-1996)

Nickname: "Silver Rectangle"

Logo: We start out with a dark blue starry sky background. A silver/gray octagonal rectangle shifts up. Then "STARMAKER" in a stylized font with a line under it, but the bottom V of the M overlaps it, making it "cut open", shifts down to on the rectangle. The name then shines with pings.

FX/SFX: The animation in the logo.

Music/Sounds: A synth chord, then a repeating series of synth beeps and 3 "pings" in sync with the shining.

Also seen on budget tapes such as Heathers, Transformations, and Last Train from Gun Hill. Some Starmaker tapes were later re-issued by Video Treasures/Anchor Bay in the late 1990s, but the logo still appears on the tapes. This also makes surprise apperances on the Amazon Prime Video and Tubi prints of The Last Days of Frank and Jesse James.

Editor's Note: None.


2nd Logo (2000s)

FX/SFX: The zooming of the logo.

Music/Sounds: None.

Availability: Rare. Seen on one of the Shelley Duvall's Bedtime Stories DVDs.
