Cinetheque

(1980's)


Logo: We see a starry background, with the stars around the center being more brighter. An orange, bordered circle made of triangular wedges appears and zooms right, and then disappears. Another one appears and does the same thing but to the left. Another one appears and zooms to us, and stops. Each of these circles leaves it's own temporary trail. A blue rectangle border zooms out, making the circle of the center zoom away. "CINETHEQUE", sheared to the bottom, zooms down and the same rectangle border appears from the left, which moves to above the word. The circular logo appears quickly zooming in. A star appears at the top-right of the border.

Technique: Just your average 80's computer effects.

Audio: A droning shining synth, with weird synth pulses. There's a moment where the another synth plays in with an ascending pitch effect. When the logo is completed, a held warbling synth note (possibly from the same synth of the weird pulses) is heard.

Availability: Was seen on a French VHS of The Erotic Adventures of Robin Hood.
