Logo descriptions by codyfinke, PAV123, and indycar Logo captures by Eric S. and others

Background: HiT Home Entertainment is the home media unit of HiT Entertainment. Currently, the company's releases in the United States are distributed by Universal Studios Home Entertainment.

1st Logo (1997-2000)

Logo: This is the same as the HiT Entertainment logo, but this time we see a red ribbon flying from the right edge of the screen. Then the ribbon makes its way to HiT Video (1997-2000) logoform the spring (or tunnel) and an explosion occurs (which turns into red). After that we see more colorful ribbons but smaller and some fireworks along with some gold stars. Later, the camera moves into the center of tunnel, then the tunnel disappears and from its place comes the star which is zooming into hole in the HiT logo in red, which fades in the same time as the star comes. As it does so, the star spins. The word "VIDEO" is written vertically next to the "T" in black. There are also three stars on the "T" and the small other one 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 on promos.

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

Music/Sounds: Same as the HiT Entertainment 1997 fanfare.

Availability: The long version is seen on some UK VHS and DVDs by HiT Entertainment from the time frame. Later releases use the Hit Entertainment logo that this logo was based on.

Editor's Note: None.

2ndLogo (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".HiT Home Entertainment 2001 logo

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?

Final Note: Current releases from the company will likely either have the 2013 version of the 2012 Universal Studios Home Entertainment logo and/or the 2006 HiT Entertainment logo.
