CBS Music Video Enterprises

(1986-1991)


Logo: On a black background, we see a 3-D bottomless tricolor pyramid spinning around, with the cut-out letters "C" on the side, "M" on the  side, and "V" on the  side. Then, two more pyramids just like the first one slide out of the bottom of it and they all spin. Then the pyramids get together, and as they do that, each of them turn into triangles, and the letters turn white. "E N T E R P R I S E S" fades in under "CMV".

Technique: Excellent CGI which holds up very well despite being made in the mid-1980s.

Music/Sounds: A modern-sounding synth theme with ticks throughout and 3 deep bangs as the pyramids turns into triangles.

Availability: Very rare. It can be found on CBS Music Video releases, such as the 1987 VHS release of Billy Joel: Live at Yankee Stadium, and the Laserdisc releases of The Forbidden Dance is Lambada and the Japanese edition of Cheap Trick: Every Trick in the Book.
