Background

Lakeshore Entertainment was founded in 1994 by Tom Rosenberg.


==1st Logo

(January 1996-May 30, 1997)==

Logo: On a black background, we see a picture of a white frame containing a picture of a boy clad in shorts about to jump into a lake. The picture is sepia-toned and filmed from the back. "LAKESHORE" is displayed above and "ENTERTAINMENT" is displayed below. 

FX/SFX: None; it's a still logo.

Music/Sounds: Just the opening theme of the movie.

Availability: Rare. Seen on Bandwagon, 'Til There Was YouBox of Moonlight, and Brain Candy.

Scare Factor: None.

==2nd Logo

(September 19, 1997-)==

Logo: We start with a full-screen shot of the lake from before, and we pan down a bit, focusing on the boy from before running (in slow motion) toward the lake and jumping, only to be frozen in mid-air. The picture zooms out, and the words "LAKESHORE" and "ENTERTAINMENT" fade into their usual spots. 

Variants

  • There is a version in which "INTERNATIONAL" replaces "ENTERTAINMENT". This often plasters New World films before 1984, like The Philadelphia Experiment.
  • There is a rare black and white closing variant.

FX/SFX: The animation, which appears to be live-action.

Music/Sounds: A soothing flute melody, sometimes coupled with goose quacking and water splashing. On some films, the movie's opening theme plays, or it is silent.

Availability: Current. Seen on films from the company. It first appeared on Going All the Way.

Scare Factor: None.

3rd Logo (January 2017-)

Logo: A remake of the previous logo.

Variant: A still version exists.

FX/SFX: Improved CGI.

Music/Sounds: The opening theme.
