1st Bumper (1996-1999)
Visuals: On a blue background with light blue searchlights, there are the words "FEATURE PRESENTATION", in a font similar to that of Fantasia, shining and slowly zooming towards the camera.
Technique: Shining and zooming effects.
Audio: A revamped version of the Television Program Enterprises theme, which begins the proud, pounding pop tune with a drumbeat. An announcer (Brian Cummings) says "And now, our feature presentation!"
Availability: Seen on Live/Artisan Entertainment video releases from 1996 to 1999.
2nd Bumper (1998-2000)
Visuals: On a blue/purple rippling background, some blurry white text zooms in and softens itself, turning into the words "Feature Presentation" via a ripple effect.
Technique: 2D computer animation.
Audio: None.
Availability: Seen on Artisan Entertainment video releases from 1998 to 2000.
3rd Bumper (2000-2006)
Visuals: On a black background, a white-bordered black square with "FEATURE PRESENTATION" in white flies towards the camera and turns upward to reveal the words. The words briefly zoom in, then the square flips to the left and disappears.
Technique: CGI.
Audio: None, but sometimes, there's a brief whoosh, a deep synth tone (E minor), a "clang", and finally another whoosh. On the 2002 VHS of The Pool and the 2004 VHS of Way Past Cool, the synth tone is removed, just like with the Coming Soon/Now Available on those tapes.
Availability: Seen on Artisan Entertainment video releases from 2000 to 2004. Also seen on the 2006 screener DVD of Shattered
4th Bumper (2003-2005)
Visuals: On a blue starburst background, we just see the words "FEATURE PRESENTATION". Unlike the previous bumper, the text is arranged horizontally.
Technique: A still, digital graphic.
Audio: None.
Availability: Seen mostly on Family Home Entertainment video releases from 2003 to 2005.
