Kideo Video

Background
Kideo Video was formed as a joint venture of Karl-Lorimar Home Video, DiC Animation City and LBS Communications to distribute kids and animated videos. This was a second in a line of Lorimar sublabels, following Scholastic-Lorimar Home Video. DiC would later launch its home video label in 1986 with Golden Book Video.

2nd Logo (1986-1988?)
Visuals: On a white-pink gradient background, eight stripes, colored blue and yellow, come in from both the left and right. "Kideo" then writes itself out in a red cursive font, then "Video" in the same font and color, zooms in as what looks like splotches of confetti pop up.
