Vestron Television was the television distribution/production division of Vestron Video. Kinnevik Media Properties Ltd., which later became Modern Entertainment and was absorbed into Lionsgate Films, started syndicating Vestron's library in the early-to-mid 1990s after Vestron Television folded. Some titles in Vestron Television's catalog were also distributed by All American Television (Now part of Fremantle). Although additional Vestron Pictures/Video titles were later syndicated by Worldvision Enterprises, and later Paramount Television, due to Live Home Video distributing these titles on VHS.
Visuals: On a black background, a small red sphere zooms into view. Zooming towards the sphere are several silver lines, forming a silver "V/Triangle" on the sphere. The sphere settles near the top of the screen and flattens into a circle. Zooming in below it are the words "VESTRON TELEVISION" in a modified Iconian Fonts' Tigershark font.
Variant: A shortened version exists where it fades in when the lines on the circle appear.
Technique: CGI. The logo was animated and designed by Jan Carlee, Christine Chang, and Ken Pelin (among others) at R/Greenberg Associates. All three were previously a part of the special effects team for the original TRON movie.
Audio: There are many variants:
