1st Logo (2000-2013)
Logo: On a tan background, we see the dark red text "FS FILM OY", with dark red outlined versions of the 20th Century Fox and Svensk Filmindustri logos on both sides of the text. Below it, we can also see the smaller "Video, DVD- ja elokuvavinkit" ("Video, DVD and movie tips") in Peignot, with "www.fs-film.fi" in the same font below it. The logo zooms in slowly, while shadows begin to appear behind logos and text, slowly becoming darker.

Technique: Simple zooming and fading effects.

Audio: A long synth sound that is followed by a high-pitched chime.

Availability: Can be found on TCF releases in Finland from the time; three examples being the VHS tapes for Home Alone 4, Ice Age and The Day After Tomorrow. It could also be found on SF releases at that time.
