Sunrise Films
1st Logo (September 17, 1986-July 22, 1993)
_(From_-_Danger_Bay).png)
Visuals: On a largely dark blue background, the entire logo is divided along the middle; the top half is blue with a yellow gradient resembling a sunrise, and the bottom half is dark blue with teal gradient lines along it that get more condensed as they get closer to the middle. From the middle of the screen, a large white light zooms in while an 8-pointed starburst rotates around it, which then rotates to its bottom to reveal a yellow beveled design, formed from steps and having a triangle-shaped top. The copies then swing onto themselves to form a single form of it, which then cross-fades over to the real logo, having the top half of the design in a more defined beveled shape with a white outline and a separate "sun" from the sunrays. As it fades to the logo, "SUNRISE FILMS" in a bold yellow font, zooms out and plasters itself along the bottom half.
Variants:
- On some shows, a short version exists with the copies swinging to form the sun before the finishing result of the sequence.
- On Black Death, the logo is now in a flat red color on a white background. Below it, there is "Sunrise Films Limited" in black and a IAW notice.
- An in-credit version of the above variant appears on Sam and Me.
- On the CBS Schoolbreak Special "The Day They Came to Arrest the Book", the logo is silver and on a blue/white gradient marble background with the IAW text above and the word "and" between this and the Zorah Productions logo (with "ZORAH" in the Lorimar "Orange Line of Doom" font) shown below.
Technique: CGI.
Audio: A synth drone first plays, which is accompanied with synth whooshes, before a loud synth trumpet fanfare plays. Sometimes, the end theme of the show would play instead.
Availability: Seen on a few Canadian series and TV movies like Danger Bay, My Secret Identity, Hoover vs. the Kennedys: The Second Civil War, Matrix (1993 series), and possibly others.
2nd Logo (November 5, 1990-December 27, 1991)

Visuals: On a black background, a red scribble quickly draws in from left to right. Over the scribble, the text "A SUNRISE FILMS / FOSTERFILM PRODUCTION" appears in a purple font, with a sheen that scrolls off of it within the text. The text is also stacked, with "SUNRISE FILMS" and "FOSTERFILM" divided by a line.
Technique: Analog computer animation.
Audio: What sounds like a flock of birds taking off with their wings flapping, along with calls at the end.
Availability: Seen only on Max Glick.
