TOP Video Production

(1989 or 1990s?)


Visuals: We see a green laser pass through from the top right of the screen on a space background. Stars are moving towards the viewer. This laser creates a large flash as the stars keep moving. More lasers of many different colors keep moving from all directions toward the center of the screen. All of the sudden, "TOP" in a red outline begins to zoom in. The letters shine. The logo then zooms back out, and a laser shoots an outline around the logo that is the same color as the lettering. "VIDEO PRODUCTION CO. LTD" is also etched in. The logo has a chrome look now, with a blue background. The letters are now gold. Korean text begins to appear suddenly after this. It becomes chrome just as the logo did previously.

Technique: 2D computer animation.

Audio: A dramatic synth-orchestral fanfare (actually part of the beginning of "Ancient Legend" by composer David Arkenstone, with additional high-pitched whooshing and shimmering sounds during the transition to the logo), which segues into a triumphant fanfare ("Finale" from Batman (1989), composed by Danny Elfman).

Availability: Unknown.
