1st Logo (Early-Mid 1990s)

Visuals: Over a looping water simulation footage (excerpted from The Mind's Eye) in the background, the words "LLoyds HOME VIDEO", arranged as:

LLoyds
------------HOME VIDEO

with the other "L" atop of the other, with "HOME VIDEO" surrounded between two yellow bars, slide into the middle.

Technique: Computer animation.

Audio: "I Just Can't Stop Loving You" by Michael Jackson.

Availability: Spotted on early tapes. ^[Examples?]

2nd Logo (Mid-Late 1990s)

Visuals: On a space background with purple nebulas is the Earth fading in accompanied by a lens flare. A light occurs and draws a swirled silver filmstrip in which the screen zooms towards it, leading it to a city within a gray surface on a dark purple background. The filmstrip settles downwards, as it goes through the right path of the city. It then rises upwards, as we crossfade to a black-blue gradient background with the Earth zooming, accompanied by two curvy filmstrips behind it in which settle in to form two "L" shapes. The outer "L" shape has seven sprocket holes on the left, within 3 black squares fading upwards it. The earth then turns into a lavender sphere in which then shines with the stylized company's name zooming out quickly behind.

Technique: CGI.

Audio: A synth theme with a "thud".

Availability: Seen on later releases from the era, such as Breeders.
