Video Cassete do Brasil

1st Logo (1980s)
Visuals: The logo begins with a blue background that quickly transitions into black, where a curved oval logo is shown flashing while a computer-rendered drawing of an astronaut in a rocky surface is seen below. A spaceship moves into the center, before a blue screen with the superimposed text "VideoCassetedoBrasil" appears which then vanishes through an ellipse effect. When the said screen disappears the spaceship is shown below near the astronaut. The astronaut transports into the spaceship thru a grainy light effect while the chyroned text "APRESENTA" scrolls up. The spaceship moves quickly to the right side before disappearing, while the rest of the screen is filled in light-blue leaving a shadow behind "APRESENTA". The logo finishes with a transition to the blue screen shown at the beginning of the logo.

Technique: Typical low-budget effects from the time.

Audio: A spacey synth brass fanfare with whooshing sounds.

Availability: Seen on distributed VHS copies of European and local Brazilian films from the 70s/80s.

Legacy: This is one of the worst South America discovered by the logo community, due to the cheap computer visuals, weird transitions, and epileptic-inducing visuals at the beginning, comparable to the Argentinian logos from the time (the music isn't too shabby, though).

2nd Logo (1980s)
Visuals: We see the logo spinning while the print of the logo is still there. Also on the top the text saying “VideoCassettedoBrasil”, and at the end, some random transition appears.

Technique: Again, low-budget effects.

Audio: Unknown

Availability: Same as the previous logo.
