Logo: We see a countdown from 7 to 3 occur on a background that changes rapidly. In order, the background changes to: After this happens, we cut to a black screen, where the text "WARNER ALLIANCE" is seen sandwiched between two thin white lines. Above it is the stylized "WA", now in, which zooms in slightly. Then, the stenciled text "HOME VIDEO" spins in underneath.

FX/SFX: The transitions, the zoom, and the slides.

Music/Sounds: A male chorus singing "Moving closer to the middle of the frame!". When they reach the word "frame", we hear a low synth sound, along with the chimes of church bells. This is taken from the song "Cash Cow" by Steve Taylor. On rare occasions, a jazz tune would play instead.

Availability: Extremely rare. Seen on some Christian tapes from the company, including the VHS release of The Bible Collection: Jacob.

Legacy: This logo has a pretty unique visual style, for better or worse, since its odd music and animation have been known to jar some viewers.
