Adobe Systems

Logo (1998-2002)


Visuals: In space, the Earth spins on the bottom-right. A bright comet (or possibly a star) shoots off in a northwest-ward direction. Immediately after the comet exits the frame, the Adobe logo (which is a square with an abstract "A" cut out of it, and "Adobe" below in white) spins in and hits the screen, causing a  flash of light to emit and turn the background black. Then, the Adobe logo zooms out, shines a bit and the entire logo fades at the end.

Technique: CGI.

Audio: A synth string note that plays on the E key accompanied by a messy harpsichord arpeggio when the logo flies in. When it hits the screen, a cymbal crash is heard as the synth note changes to the A key, then a series of computerized blips when the logo shines.

Availability: Used on a very few number of softwares like Adobe PhotoDeluxe 3.0 and Adobe Acrobat 5: Educational Version. This can be found on the autoplay of the disc.
