Northern Lights Entertainment

(February 21-April 3, 1992)Edit
Logo: On a black background, we see these words in the middle of the screen:

Northern Lights

ENTERTAINMENT

"Northern Lights" is written in an italic handwritten text while "ENTERTAINMENT" is written block text.

FX/SFX: None. This is a still logo.

Music/Sounds: None or the closing theme of the movie.

Availability: Rare. Seen at the end of ''Stop! Or My Mom Will Shoot and Beethoven.''

(December 17, 1993-present)Edit
Nicknames: "The Woodland Forest", "The Moving Lights", "The Forest Logo", "AWOO-O-OO!"

Logo: On a dark blue background, we open to something moving in the sky (akin to the Aurora Borealis that occurs in the high latitude Arctic/Antarctic regions). It slowly comes upward, the edges forming the outline of the name. The full logo appears and the background starts to brighten, showing the upper part of a mountainous woodland forest at sunrise. On the left of the logo, there is a pine tree standing on top of a cliff. The written part of the text is in white while the "ENTERTAINMENT" part is light pink.

Variant:


 * A short version was seen at the end of all episodes of Beethoven: The Animated Series and 1999 print of Father's Day.
 * This is also use for City Light Entertainment. We see the logo beginning with the Auroa Borealis moving but it move toward us filling the screen and slowly come upwards revealing a different mountainous woodland forest at night complete with building. The logo in the same font as Northern Light.
 * On Space Jam, there a different sequence based on the current logo. We zoom out of the mountain to reveal the woodland background and revealing the short version of the logo with the right of the logo a cliff with a pine tree standing and the wolf walking to cliff and howl at the logo.

FX/SFX: An aurora light show on the sky.

Music/Sounds: Twinkling chimes followed by a majestic synth tune and a wolf's hooting howl (probably the classic "cartoon" sound effect). This is the 2nd known music package from here on.

Music/Sounds Variants:


 * At the end of Beethoven's 2nd (the first film to use this logo), instead a majestic piano synth tune with a choir is heard. A different (more realistic) wolf howl, also heard off-screen, follows at the end. This is going to be the Northern Light Respective Theme from here on.
 * On Commandments and Beethoven: The Animated Series, it's the closing theme of the movie (or the program).
 * On Private Parts, the tail end of a wolf's howling just echoes over the closing variant of the Rysher Entertainment logo.
 * On the 1999 Sony Wonder Print A of the same movie that is the first to use the logo, there a twinkling chimes that is followed by the choir piano synth tune with the realistic wolf howl.
 * On 1999 print of Fathers' Day, the short version has the first half of piano choir synth tune before cutting off by 1999 Sony Wonder logo.
 * On Space Jam, there a synth theme with the wolf howling at the end.

Availability: Rare. Seen at the end of Junior, The Late Shift, Howard Stern's Private Parts, and Six Days Seven Nights. Don't expect this logo on Fathers' Day or Mummies Alive! (the 1997 DiC animated series). Although, the logo starting with light coming up revealing the logo can be seen on 1999 print of the former before the Sony Wonder logo.
