The Screen Test Home Video Adventure opened in the New York area of Universal Studios Florida, in a space in front of Kongfrontation, as a separately paid experience in which guests were filmed against a blue screen to star in a short film.
Wikipedia's main Universal Studios Florida article gives a looser "1990" opening, but the dedicated former-attractions list and Orlando Informer both specify March 1991, and Inside the Magic places it in the park's second year.Tracked byTheme Park Patch Notes -
The JVC-sponsored attraction let guests choose between two ten-minute productions, "Your Day at Universal Studios" and "The Star Trek Adventure," with the finished videotape sold for $29.95 plus tax.
