| 1st Logo (1997-2004) | 2nd Logo (August 29, 2000-June 14, 2004) | 3rd Logo (November 27, 2001-October 17, 2006) | 4th Logo (October 5, 2004) |
Visuals: Against a dark blue starfield background, several stars swirl around to form the Lionsgate lion logo, which zooms out. Some more stars that turn from white to gold zoom out and arrange themselves on the logo, and the words "LIONS GATE FILMS" (with "GATE" in Garamond) flash in at the top right of the lion. A burst of light wipes in a white line with "HOME ENTERTAINMENT" and the byline "A LIONS GATE ENTERTAINMENT COMPANY" underneath it. The words sparkle a bit.
Technique: CGI.
Audio: A majestic, ethereal synth theme, coupled with whooshing and shining sounds. Composed by Robert J. Walsh. On some Canadian releases from that time period such as the VHS releases of Stickin' Around: Volumes 2 and 3, it uses the music from the Avalanche Home Entertainment logo with additional sound effects added.
Availability:
- This appears on mainly Canadian VHS and DVD releases (and starting in late-1999, U.S. releases) of Lionsgate material such as Strictly Ballroom, Breakin' the Law, and the first two seasons of The Dead Zone.
- It makes an appearance on the 2001 Platinum Disc Corporation DVDs of American Eagle and Merchants of War.
- It also appears on DIC Home Entertainment DVD releases from 2001-2002 such as Inspector Gadget, Heathcliff, The Super Mario Bros. Super Show, Adventures of Sonic the Hedgehog, and many others, while the VHS counterparts use the next two logos.
Visuals: On a black background, several stars join together at the right of the screen to form the constellation of the lion. As this happens, the Lionsgate lion logo, in white, fades in. "LIONS GATE", "HOME ENTERTAINMENT" and "A LIONS GATE ENTERTAINMENT COMPANY" fade in, with all but the byline in the Bernhard Modern typeface.
Technique: CGI.
Audio: The same music from before.
Availability:
- This appears on the Sabrina, The Animated Series VHS releases Sabrina in Love and Salem's World (the Sabrina's World DVD uses the previous logo) as well as Mummies Alive! (the DVD version also uses the previous logo) which both came out on August 28, 2001.
- It also shows up on the screener VHS release of Madeline's Halloween Spooktacular (the retail release uses the next logo).
