Abbey Home Media is a leading provider of home entertainment systems.

They offer a range of products, including soundbars, home theaters, and wireless speakers.

Their soundbars are designed to enhance the listening experience for TV and movie watching.

The Abbey Home Media logo went through a significant design change in 2014. It featured a unique, wavy design with metallic blue, purple, cyan, and white columns rising up at different angles.

The logo was made using CGI techniques, specifically with MAXON CINEMA 4D and Adobe After Effects. This gave it a dynamic and eye-catching appearance.

Here are some key facts about the 2nd logo:

  • Seen on then-current Abbey Home Media DVD releases from 2014 until 2020.
  • Its last known appearance was on the DVD release of Peter Rabbit: The Tale of the First Bluebell.

The logo's design was quite elaborate, with the text "Abbey" forming in a similar wavy manner to the columns. It also included white and grey metallic ribbons flying by, adding to the visual interest.

DVDs and Distribution

Abbey Home Media has been involved in the distribution of various DVDs, including compilation DVDs featuring Hebrew dubs of shows. These compilation DVDs have been broadcasted and co-produced by Hop! Channel.
