(March 10, 1989-November 3, 2000)
Logo: Against a black background, the words "LIGHTMOTIVE" fade into view via a "pixelized" effect. The text is written in a tall, fancy serif font and is surrounded by a box, which has changed from rainbow-colored to solid white during the transition. The text then transitions to the words "ALLIED FILMMAKERS" via a "double wipe" effect. Both texts are colored in various rainbow colors. The logo fades away.

Variants:
 * On James and the Giant Peach and The Princess and the Cobbler, the "LIGHTMOTIVE" animation is cut.
 * On City of Joy, the "ALLIED FILMMAKERS" animation is cut. Also "A" and "PRODUCTION" appear above and below the logo respectfully.

Technique: Cheap computer animation.

Music/Sounds: None, or the opening theme of the movie.

Availability: Rare. Can be found on the live-action Super Mario Bros. movie, James and the Giant Peach, and City of Joy, though it does appear on a workprint copy of it, it does not appear on Fred Calvert's version of The Thief and the Cobbler (The Princess and the Cobbler), however, as that film only has the Majestic Films logo.
