Logo descriptions by SnowflakesOmega and TeamLogo

(1980s)
Note: Logo can be seen here.

Logo: Over a stock animation of a cheaply-animated cyan/white vortex with green circular streaks, we see purple Hebrew text near the center in two lines. The text then wipes out and then wipes in again with the yellow Latin alphabet text "VIDEOLAND". The Hebrew text then flashes in and out consecutively. The text then dissapears, the circular streaks turn into other colors, and then more Hebrew text appears again, with the first line being in purple and the second line being in green. Between them is the English text "VICTORY", in yellow and white. The text then wipes out and we cut into the warning screen.

FX/SFX: The animated vortex, the text appearing and wiping out.

Music/Sounds: A bombastic orchestral recording of "Swan Lake" by Pyotr Ilyich Tchaikovsky.

Availability: Extremely rare. You will have to do some deep searching on VHS stores from Israel to find this logo.

Editor's Note: Really cheap computer effects, looking how the vortex background was made probably with Scanimate and the text animation being from a low budget computer (equivalent of an MSX or Apple II), but for a low-budget video company it's actually justifiable. Knowing that, the vortex background and quite loud music can be somewhat imposing as well but not directly scary.
