Walton Video

Background
Walton Video was a pre-cert video distributor.

1st logo (1981-1982?)


Logo: On a black background and a rounded crimson rectangle, the words "Walton Video" appear stacked and in uppercase, with the large leading letters W and V merged to form a cone.

FX/SFX: The logo only fades in an out.

Music/Sounds: None.

2nd logo (1982?-1983)


Logo: on a sky blue background, a blue rectangular box, with the words "Walton" on the top, wipe into view from the bottom. The large letters W and V, in the same colour, then zoom into view one by one.

Variant: YouTube user PreCert has a version where the logo repeats itself with the header "For your future entertainment from", in blue, above it. The letters W and V then just sequentially appear instead of zooming into view.

FX/SFX: The wiping and zooming of the logo's elements.

Music/Sounds: None.

Technical note: The humming in the video appears to be an artifact from playback, or the distributor's reprography equipment.
