Front Row Entertainment, Inc.

1st Logo (1988)


Visuals: At a dark blue background at the top of the screen and a light blue carpet with buttons on the flooring, four pieces of a frame come together, then some trailing words zooming towards the screen read: Front Row Video

At the bottom of the frame there is a wiping of a word saying: presents ...

Technique: CGI.

Audio: None.

Availability: Discovered on a 1988 VHS of Time Out for Hilarious Sports Bloopers.

2nd Logo (1991-2000)


Visuals: On a light blue background with a blue-grayish floor, there is a white sign laying on the floor. An usher that appears to have a weird face walks up to the floor and he picks up the sign, revealing a yellow border and the words:

Front Row Entertainment INC.

A black hemisphere with a yellow line suddenly appears behind the usher as we zoom in. As the logo zooms in, the usher's legs begin to disappears via a particle effect. When the logo is fully zoomed in, "Presents" wipes in by a particle effect.

Technique: CGI.

Audio: Marching sounds with a whoosh that sounds like someone hissing.

Availability: Can be seen on specialty and public domain VHS tapes at the time.

3rd Logo (2000-2005)


Visuals: On a marble-like door, there is the usher from the previous logo, even though there is no sign, on push handles that looks like gongs. The screen pans over to face the front of the door with a spotlight shining on the door. The door opens and we pan through the theater with seats, curtains, and a light projecting from behind the seats. When we get to the front of the theater, the words:

FRONT ROW ENTERTAINMENT INC.

appear via a blur effect in a golden Art Deco font. The logo shimmers.

Technique: CGI.

Audio: There is timpani drumbeats then a majestic fanfare very reminiscent of Windows 98 with the audience clapping, which is a part of the opening sequence.

Availability: Can be seen on specialty and public domain VHS tapes and DVD's.
