1st Logo (1989-1996) StarMakerStarMaker

Nickname: "Silver Rectangle"

Logo: We start out with a 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 series of synth beeps and 3 "pings" in sync with the shining.

Availability: Can be found on tapes from the period, such as budget versions of the post-1984 New World library, among others, and some tapes of TV shows, most notably Crime Story, Faerie Tale Theatre, Heathers, Transformations, Last Train from Gun Hill, and Saturday Night Live, even some co-released by Video Treasures and some early Anchor Bay releases!

Editor's Note: None.

2nd Logo (2000s) Starmaker (2000s)

Logo: On a black background, we see the print version of the previous Starmaker logo in a white box zoom in toward us. Then it stops once it's in view.

FX/SFX: The zooming of the logo.

Music/Sounds: None.

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

Editor's Note: None.
