_(From_-_Australian_cinema_print_of_The_Last_Starfighter).png)
Visuals: On a black background, some orange lines move from the top right and twist to become a circle. The circle unwinds itself to form a star shape. Right when the star is being formed, a bright yellow light flashes and the whole star is engulfed in white light as a blue filmstrip is formed around the star. When the filmstrip finishes, a white light shines beneath it. It turns out to be the word "STARSCREEN" in a futuristic font. Above it, there is "A" and underneath "Presentation". Below the logo, a byline along the lines of "A SUBSIDIARY OF" in very tiny font fades in. Next to it, there is the CEL logo while underneath, the text "COMMUNICATIONS AND ENTERTAINMENT LIMITED".
Technique: Scanimate.
Audio: A rising synth arrangement with base, pads and harps. When the star shines, there is a laser sound accompanied by a synth drum, followed by a 3-note synth trumpet. The music ends with a 4-note stinger.
Availability: The only known film to use this logo is the original Australian print of The Last Starfighter, as it appears twice on the 1984 PBV VHS of the film; one time in 4:3 letterbox. It's probably plastered on most current prints of Starscreen titles.
