1st Logo (1996-1998)


Visuals: On a black background, a light appears on the center and gets more brighter slowly, as the background turns into a blue/green gradient. The light then turns blue and brings a golden logo consisting of a zooming "Р" and an upside-down "F", with a "ВИДЕО" inside the space made by these letters on the center. Before the logo stops zooming the words "ПРЕМЬЕР" (PREMIER) and "ФИЛЬМ" (FILM) appear in between the vertical sides of the logo zooming out. The background turns full cyan.

Technique: Simple animation.

Audio: A synth drone with chirping sounds at the start, and later a harpsichord-like instrument plays. It's actually an opening section of "It's A Beautiful Day" by Queen.

Availability: Seen on Russian tapes made by the company around 1996-1998.

2nd Logo (1998-2005)


Visuals: On a black starry background we see various lines zooming left. A golden figure then appears by moving right and the camera turns. The lines are revealed to be the letters of the words "ПРЕМЬЕР" and "МУЛЬТИМЕДИА" (MULTIMEDIA), which rotate and place on the figure. Then yellow lights appear on the figure, pass through it and flash, changing the figure with the letters "Р" and "М". The lights keep on staying on-screen and pass through the letters, and then flash again, changing the logo with a golden rectangle with the same logo engraved on it.

Technique: Pretty choppy animation.

Audio: A percussive theme.

Availability: Seen on later VHS tapes by Premier Multimedia.
