HIT Home Entertainment

Background
HiT Home Entertainment was the home media unit of HiT Entertainment. The name was retired circa 2001, when HiT began crediting their home media releases under their normal name.

1st Logo (1997-2000)
Nickname: "The Red Fireworks", “HiT Stars”, “HiT Video”

Logo: This is the same as the 1997 HiT logo, but the ribbon is colored completely red, the explosions are heavier and red as well, and several gold stars are added. There are small ribbons and fireworks that come out of the spinning tunnel. Then the words "ENTERTAINMENT PLC" are replaced by "VIDEO" and the globe is replaced by a gold star. Also, the HiT logo is in red instead of light blue. There are also three gold stars on the "T" and a smaller star to the right. The star in the hole shines slightly and the small one next to the "T" glows.

Variant:
 * A shorter version exists, this was mainly used between promos.
 * At the end of Kipper: Christmas Eve, the URL "www.hitentertainment.com" fades in at the top of the logo.

FX/SFX: Same as the 1997 HiT Entertainment logo.

Music/Sounds: The HiT Entertainment 1997 fanfare.

Availability: Used only in the UK. The long version is seen on some early VHS releases by HiT Entertainment from the time frame. DVDs and later VHS releases use the HiT Entertainment logo on which this logo was based.

Editor's Note: This logo is way more powerful than its original counterpart. The bombastic music and heavy explosions, along with the stars, make this logo a complete winner. For some young viewers, the atmosphere might scare some.

2nd Logo (2000-2001)
Nicknames: "2000s HiT Globe", "Cheesy Glow"

Logo: Same as the HiT Entertainment logo from the era, but "HOME" is sandwiched next to "ENTERTAINMENT".

Variant: A still version of the logo exists.

FX/SFX: The glow surrounding the globe or none.

Music/Sounds: None.

Availability: Can be seen on HiT Entertainment VHS tapes that were distributed by Lyrick Studios such as Bob the Builder: To the Rescue. This logo plasters the normal HiT Entertainment logo on tapes like Bob the Builder: Can We Fix it?

Editor's Note: None.
