'''DreamWorks Home Entertainment''' was the home media unit of [[DreamWorks Pictures]], formed in 1998. The company's releases were originally distributed by [[Universal Pictures Home Entertainment]] (to the point that some referred to the unit as a de facto USHE unit), a deal that would last until 2005. After DreamWorks was purchased by [[Paramount Pictures]] in February 2006, the distribution rights went to [[Paramount Home Entertainment]] until 2011. The studio became independent from Paramount in 2008 and in 2009, they made a distribution deal with [[Walt Disney Studios Motion Pictures]] through their [[Touchstone Pictures]] label (although Paramount and Universal Studios continued to release their films through 2011). The company was retired circa 2011 when [[Walt Disney Studios Home Entertainment]], through [[Touchstone Home Entertainment]], began releasing their films to home media, but only films that Disney/Touchstone released. Currently, Paramount owns the home media rights to DreamWorks' pre-2008 live-action films (along with any 2008 to 2011 films they released), and both [[DreamWorks Animation]] and newer DreamWorks films are released by Universal Pictures Home Entertainment. |

Background
DreamWorks Home Entertainment was the home media unit of DreamWorks Pictures, formed in 1998. The company's releases were originally distributed by Universal Pictures Home Entertainment (to the point that some referred to the unit as a de facto USHE unit), a deal that would last until 2005. After DreamWorks was purchased by Paramount Pictures in February 2006, the distribution rights went to Paramount Home Entertainment until 2011. The studio became independent from Paramount in 2008 and in 2009, they made a distribution deal with Walt Disney Studios Motion Pictures through their Touchstone Pictures label (although Paramount and Universal Studios continued to release their films through 2011). The company was retired circa 2011 when Walt Disney Studios Home Entertainment, through Touchstone Home Entertainment, began releasing their films to home media, but only films that Disney/Touchstone released. Currently, Paramount owns the home media rights to DreamWorks' pre-2008 live-action films (along with any 2008 to 2011 films they released), and both DreamWorks Animation and newer DreamWorks films are released by Universal Pictures Home Entertainment.

- VHS trailers featured a still variant with the fishing boy and the moon above the text.
- On holiday-themed ads for the video release of Shrek, the boy was replaced by the title character wearing a Santa hat.
- On some Blu-ray releases, the "HOME ENTERTAINMENT" text is animated exactly like the film logo, now fading in, but there is still a line between the two. This never appeared on any DVD releases for reasons unknown.
- There is a 4:3 version of the logo.
- A 16:9-stretched version of the 4:3 variant was spotted on the international DVD releases of Shrek.
- On the DVD of Sinbad: Legend of the Seven Seas, the "HOME ENTERTAINMENT" text is small. The logo then pans downwards, seguing into the main menu for the movie.
