1st Logo (1996-2001)

Visuals: On a white background, there is a blue bar flying to the top, spinning a couple of times. A white sunburst rises in the bar. At the same time, a green W unfolds itself, and individual letters in the text "WELLSPRING MEDIA", in the same color as the W, turn into place. The e-mail address and website link for the company appear below the logo. It stays on screen for another 13 seconds, then, we fade to black.

Technique: CGI.

Audio: A breathy synthesized orchestra jingle.

Availability: Seen on several specialty tapes from the company, particularly from the 1990s.

2nd Logo (2001-2006)

Visuals: The camera rotates around a landscape with a waterfall. As this happens, the logo, an abstract waterdrop, flies in. After that, the text "WELLSPRING" appears and the camera stops, with the background becoming bluer and blurry.

Technique: CGI.

Audio: A remix over the first logo's jingle, only with a different style.

Availability: Unknown.
