Classic Family Entertainment

Logo description by Ryan Froula

(1980s)

Logo: Against a black/maroon gradient background, the word CLASSIC (in a cream-colored serif font, with the first C bigger than the rest of the word) zooms in while spinning. Once it settles, FAMILY ENTERTAINMENT (in a cream-colored non-serif font, sandwiched between two lines) slides in underneath from the right. PRESENTS (in white) then fades in underneath.

Technique: The Scanimate words animating.

Music: A synthesized fanfare.

Availability: Rare. Can be seen on videotapes of The Pathfinders and Star Fleet from the era. This made a surprise appearance on a tape of the Magnum Entertainment release of Emerson, Lake and Palmer: Pictures at an Exhibition when footage of The Pathfinders: One Man's Bomber being rewound was shown, apparently by mistake.
