Seven Keys Video

1st Logo (1981-1986?)
Logo: On a black background, we see four lines-- colored green, blue, yellow, and red-- move across the screen from left to right. Then, another set of lines moves toward the top right, followed by another moving toward the top left. This ends with two more sets of lines curving at opposite directions. The camera zooms out to show the lines forming a "7<" with "SEVEN KEYS" below. "PRESENTS" appears below.

Variant: There is one variant where "PRESENTS" is absent from the logo.

Technique: Appears to be cel animation.

Audio: A violin stinger (similar to the one in the 1989 PBS logo) with some theremin-like sounds going "bowwww-whoooop-bowwww" as the lines move, ending with a synth stinger.

Music/Sound Variants:
 * Later releases had silence or the movie's theme, oddly enough, probably due to plastering a company's logo.
 * Some tapes have the intro to  by playing over it (and the following copyright warning): Seven Keys was an official video distributor for the film.

Availability: Seen on video tapes from the period released in Australia and New Zealand, including Fire And Ice, Casanova and Company, and Shockwaves.

2nd Logo (1983-????)
Logo: On a blue background, we see a small white 7K logo just like before at the top of the screen with "SEVEN KEYS VIDEO" below it in a futuristic font. The words "Always Entertaining" are wiped below in a neon -ink script.

Technique: 2D computer animation.

Audio: Just an announcer saying "Seven Keys Video. Always entertaining."

Availability: Seen on later Seven Keys tapes such as New Gladiators 2072 A.D., A Certain Sacrifice, and Stanley.
