Vision Video Ltd.

(1994-2003)


Logo: From black, the camera pans away from an orange background to reveal it is actually an orange scribble reminiscent of a tornado on a dark blue background. Three black pillars emerge from the left, right and center of the scribble. They begin to rise and shoot lightning as the camera continues to pan away from the orange scribble. When the camera is nearly at bird's eye view, the three pillars get struck by a flash of lightning and they stop rising. The pillars and their shadows form the initials 'VVL'. The name Vision Video Ltd fades in at the bottom of the screen.

FX/SFX: The pillars rising, the electricity, and the background. All CGI effects.

Music/Sounds: A dramatic fanfare plays while the black pillars rise from the orange scribble, ending in a final chord when the lightning strikes. After that, an eerie synth piece is heard in the background.

Availability: Extinct in the UK - Can be seen on all VHS releases from VVL. For its final few years in service, this logo would follow after the Universal logo - this logo can be found on Universal's budget VHS releases.

Editor's Note: The dramatic fanfare and hit can get to some people - but otherwise it's harmless.
