1st Logo
(October 24, 1994-November 7, 2000)
Logo: On a green background (the same as the FBI Warning screens of the era) are the words (in all caps) "This film has been modified from its original version. It has been formatted to fit your TV".
Logo Variations: There are several variations of this logo.
Effects: Just the screen fading in and out.
Music/Sounds: None.
Availability: Uncommon. Seen on Disney releases of the era starting with Masterpiece Collection releases like Mary Poppins, Bedknobs and Broomsticks and Robin Hood. Also seen on the cartoon compilations The Best of Roger Rabbit and Tin Toy Stories. This logo was even used when the blue warning screens started appearing; you can find where this logo will be if you see the words on the back of the videocassette case. The "colorized" version is seen on 1997 VHS releases of The Shaggy Dog, The Absent-Minded Professor and Son of Flubber. The "edited" version can be seen on the 2000 Gold Classic Collection releases of Saludos Amigos, Make Mine Music and Melody Time. One of the last releases to use this logo was the Gold Classic Collection VHS of Mickey's Once Upon a Christmas.
Scare Factor: None to low. The logo appearing after the "Feature Presentation" screen or the THX logo (either before of after) can raise it a little bit, but it's harmless. None to those who are used to seeing it.
