Mayco-Film

1st Logo (1979?-1986)


Logo: On a white background, 2 blue copies of the abstract text "mayco" slide in from the top and bottom of the screen, producing trails as they do. They meet in the center and then slide away, revealing a red copy. The text "MAYCO har de gode filmene" appears on the bottom left of the logo.

Technique: The copies sliding in and out.

Audio: A strange warbly synth tune.

Availability: Probably on out-of-print adult films on Betamax/VHS tapes.

2nd Logo (1986-1990s)


Logo: On a black background, the Mayco label flies around the screen. When it hits the center, it spins around very quickly for a few seconds. It then flies around a few more times before it disappears and the screen fades to blue, where the warning screen appears via typing effect.

Technique: The flying and spinning.

Audio: A sample of the song "Two Hearts" by John Parr, which is a triumphant sounding synth theme.

Availability: Seen on Norwegian tapes from the time period.
