ShowTime

(1985-1995?)


Logo: On a cinema sign with boxes behind, we see 8 metal bars turning from the left and right sides, forming a fence. A blue film clapperboard with the text "SHOW" and "TIME" (the latter trailing in white and becoming transparent) zooms out to the metal fence. While this is happening, the cinema sign fades into a black and blue gradient background. The clapperboard shuts and opens, breaking the metal fence.

Technique: CGI.

Music/Sounds: A synthesized note rising with a drumroll, which then builds up to a six-note mnemonic along with some drums, which seques to higher and higher notes, and eventually it ends to one more held up note.

Availability: Found on some Finnish VHS tapes from the time.
