1st Logo (1991-1996)
yB3Z72__4tk

Logo: We see a blue sky with clouds, and a marble grid. A golden spherical shape drops down. It touches the floor and gets squashed. The squashed gold then starts to form a golden shape, which then rotates down to reveal some stylized Russian letters "ВСЕРВИС". Next to the B, there's a full name "КОНЦЕРН ВИДЕОСЕРВИС".

Technique: The really cheesy transformation from the sphere to the logo.

Music/Sounds: A majestic news-like fanfare.

Availability: Scarce. Seen on early Videoservice tapes.

2nd Logo (1996-1999)
GN9hrR9Rb0U

Logo: On a blue sky with clouds below, a golden square with an encarved B and C zooms in rotating. A light flare passes through the logo. The Russian name zooms out below with a blur. The light flare then stops moving, and flashes before disappearing.

Technique: The logo zooming in, the light flare, the word zooming out. The quality has taken a major step compared to the previous.

Music/Sounds: Same as the 1st logo.

Availability: Uncommon on Russia. Can be found on various videotapes of famous films distributed in the country, including those made by Columbia and Tristar.

3rd Logo (1999-2000)

Logo: None.

Technique: Everything including the machinery.

Music/Sounds: An electro-industrial theme with the sounds of machinery heard through the logo.

Availability: Uncommon. It was only used for two years to mark the advent of the new millenium.

4th Logo (2001-20??)

Logo: We see a stormy sky with dark water below. Two lights appear and swirl to the center, leaving transparent trails making the "ВС". The Videoservice square logo then appears from a burst of light, along with a Russian word zooming out above, followed by the Russian name. The stormy sea background fades out.

Variant: The logo would zoom out to place itself on the warning screen.

Technique: Great animation of the stormy sea and light trails, pretty average when you watch everything else.

Music/Sounds: A calming bell/guitar theme, with the sounds of thunder and the action.

Availability: Common. Appears on every recent VHS and DVD made by the company.
