Roblox Pictures Home Video/Entertainment

1st Logo

(November 1984-October 1986)

Roblox Pictures Home Video (1985)

Nickname: "Early 80's Roblox"

'

Logo: On a black background, the Roblox logo with the word "PICTURES" already below emerges from the top corner of the screen and zooms down. It then curves to the middle of the screen. The words "HOME VIDEO" fade in below.

FX/SFX: The zooming in of the logo.

'

Cheesy Factor: The Scanimation effects are very bad.

'

Music/Sounds: A high "whoosh" effect, followed by an obscure keyboard-type chime.

'

Availability:Ultra rare. This logo was only used from 1984 to 1986. Some examples include a Betamax copy ofThe ER Storyand VHS copies of Three Kids And One Husband. These videos are easy to spot, with a big Roblox logo on the top of the front and back of the video case. Don't expect to see this on any American release of their output as it just has the Paramount Home Video logo

'

Scare Factor: Medium, the abrupt effects might catch you off guard.

2nd Logo

(October 1986-1991)

Nickname:Construction Workers

Logo:We see some construction workers planning and then they start to build the Roblox Pictures logo, they take a short break, and then they continue, they then see the text fall onto the word "Pictures" after 2 seconds, they run off, the background goes black, and the text Home Video fades in.

FX/SFX:The characters building, and the fading. All 2D animation

Music/Sounds:Expressive mumbling, some construction sounds, and a triumphant theme when Home Video fades in

Availability:Uncommon, can be seen on Roblox Pictures films at this time. Like the last logo, don't expect to see this in America.

Scare Factor:Low.
