Cinema Club/Warning Screen

(1990's-2000's)
Warning: After the VCR tracking control bumper fades out, the background of the bumper fades in again. We now see a videotape with a black label with "CINEMA CLUB" on it on top of the screen, and the following text: "This video cassette, including its soundtrack, is protected by copyright." "This cassette may be used to show the motion picture/programme only in private homes to which the general public is not invited and/or to which an entrance fee is not charged." "Any other unauthorized manner of exhibition and any broadcast, public performance, diffusion, editing, copying, reselling, and hiring, in whole or in part, is prohibited.". Then, the background and the information fade out, transitioning to the Cinema Club logo.

Technique: The fading in of the text and background (minus the filmstrip).

Music/Sounds: None.

Availability: Seen on many UK videos such as Ghostbusters and Ghostbusters II.
