Thanasis Vengos Tainies Geliou

Background
Thanasis Vengos Tainies Geliou (ΘΒ Ταινίες Γέλιου) was the film studio company owned by famed national comedian Thanasis Veggos (Θανάσης Βέγγος in Greek alphabet).

Logo (30 January 1967-1969, 31 May 1983)
Visuals: On a gray background, a filmstrip figure with white-colored holes and the Greek letters "ΘΒ" in the center is shown. After a brief zoom-in to the logo, the words of "Θανάσης Βέγγος" and "Ταινίες Γέλιου" in a handwritten font appear one-by-one, with the first set of words at the top part of the filmstrip and the second set of words at the bottom part.

Variant: A color version also exists, with the background and elements of the logo tinted in pink.

Technique: Traditional animation.

Audio: A loud patriotic horn fanfare plays at the beginning (an excerpt of Gioachino Rossini's "William Tell Overture: Finale"), followed by a cymbal crash, and then two weird spring-like sounds, ending with a loud bombastic orchestral note.

Availability: Seen on Thanasis Veggos films released in the time period. It has made a surprise appearance in the company's last film, Trellos kai pasis Ellados (with the colored variant).

Legacy: It is a favorite for people who grew up with Veggos's own films.
