Edde Entertainment

(1989-1998)
oHlKqdNJy58 M-tk1Gi5lz4 Logo: We open with a shot panning out with two circular bands linked together, circling around one another. One band is a grey colored filmstrip while the other is light brown on the outside with an bronze-like texture on the inside. The bands continue rotating until they stop to reveal the name "EDDE ENTERTAINMENT" (with the 'EDDE' in a wider font than the 'ENTERTAINMENT'). The "EDDE" appears on the light brown/bronze textured band, while "ENTERTAINMENT" appears on the filmstrip. The words shine.

Variants:
 * On some tapes, the logo starts off with a close up of the bronze ring before it starts animating. The animation is the same, but the logo stays on-screen for a few seconds longer.
 * On some B&W films, the logo fades into B&W a couple seconds after the rings finish rotating.
 * An extended variant exists on the VHS of Zombie 2: The Dead Are Among Us (a.k.a. Zombi 2 in Italy and Zombie Flesh Eaters in the UK). First we pan through a city against a vermillion background, then we zoom into the window of one of the buildings and we see the 2nd logo animation, but brighter and appears to be filmed. After a few seconds, sections of the logo rotate to form a sphere which proceeds to rotate as two white comets hit the sphere forming red shockwaves. The sphere then disperses as it divides itself into a series of squares.

FX/SFX: The rings rotating, and the transitions on the extended variant.

Music/Sounds: Same as the 2nd Showcase Video (Australia) logo, but it's shorter. The extended variant is silent.

Availability: Seen on How Awful About Allen, Born to Win, and Shocked.

(1980s)
Logo: On a black background, an orange, italicised 3D word mark T-Z on a stack of four flat versions of the wordmark, (top to bottom) one orange, two yellow, one green. The word mark is surrounded by five segmented lines of blue, cyan, green, yellow and red. Under the word mark is a purple shiny rectangle with a spaced all-uppercase word "video" cut out.

Variant: There is a version with a dull grey gradient granite background.

FX/SFX: None

Music/Sounds: None

Availability: Found in Nxde Aerobics.

Logo: On a black background, something whooshes in (rather silently) from the upper right corner on screen. The entire logo is somewhat slanted and sandwiched between two lines, with the "ACE VIDEO" portion written in old computer font and the "PRESENTS" part in small block letters. The logo shines upwards in a diagonal motion.

Variant: Beginning in 1992, the background is light gold, and the animation is reversed itself at the end.

FX/SFX: The logo zooming diagonally from bottom to top and shining. The reverse animation for the variant.

Music/Sounds: None, or a short saxophone tune with flute flourishes throughout.

Availability: Appeared on releases from the label. The original version was used on It Seemed Like a Good Idea at the Time, while the later one appeared on Reborn, Beyond Obsession, and Zombie 6: Monster Hunter.

(1993-1998)
Logo: On a sand-colored background, we see a tall black rectangle with a blue outline. At the top is a photograph of a man on a horse next to an empty horse. Below it is the text "HIGH DESERT FILMS", with "HIGH DESERT" in chrome with a drop shadow.

FX/SFX: None.

Music/Sounds: Just the wind blowing.

Availability: Seen on Thieves of Fortune.
