Saturn Video

Not to be confused with Saturn Films and Saturn Productions.

Logo (December 1984-July 1985)
Visuals: On a black background, a stylized Saturn swoops in from the top left down to the middle right, and then towards the center with a residue trail. The planet has darker stripes running down in a pattern, while the rings are split into 2. As it settles into place, the wide text "SATURN" wipes in with a checkerboard effect. The logo then remains on screen for several seconds.

Technique: 2D computer graphics.

Audio: A whoosh followed by the first two notes of the Westminster chimes, on an electronic piano glissando.

Availability: Seen on a few Videoform pre-cert releases from the era.
