AVID:Featured Media Nominations

WGBH "Boxing" Ident (November 8th, 1973)
Reason: A huge closer step for the existence of the sweeper sign off (I only could find the audio of the sign off unfortunately and not the footage btw). I found this while I was searching torrents and I found the logo. Big proof that live action WGBH idents with people indeed existed. SqudSqud (talk) 13:51, 12 June 2023 (UTC)

 * 1) Wow! Nice find. AlmightyKingPrawn (talk) 15:05, 11 June 2023 (UTC)

Parade Video (1988)
Reason: A rare, seemingly unusual variant of the little well known Parade Video logo. I randomly call it unusual, reasonably due to the movements of the texts and such. From a *Chinese* VHS of Cal Pozo's Learn to Dance in Minutes: The Basic Lessons(?). sauce: https://archive.org/details/avseq-02_20210225

EDIT: I've got the title of the volume wrong, just corrected it. It might be "The Basic Lessons" rather than "The Latin Dances" or something. whoops.

File:Orion Pictures (RARE German variant, 1983-1987).jpg
Reason: Another localisation variant.. though this one is far different than most that I've seen, namely the fact that this is actually a new logo technically! The logo zooms in somewhat cheaply, which isn't present in ANY Orion logo whatsoever. And with that, here's why I believe this should be featured. It's simply another unique translation.

Reason: Thats right, Chile had Front Row Joe intros until 2012! I was able to find 7 of these in total and they will all be uploaded to YouTube in the near future (one of them has already been hiding there for years, and the other ones I will upload are in the depths of Vimeo). All of them end with this. In my hunt for the lost 2012 Cinemark "Dog and Projector" policy I couldn't find it, but I found basically EVERYTHING ELSE, so stay tuned for more Cinemark finds.
