Crown Video (Sweden)

(1980's)

Variant: A version exists in which the words

zoom out above the crown, with the top-right part of the "T" extended over the rest of the letters. The crown is smaller in order to accomodate this.

Technique: The zooming and fading effects.

Audio: A dramatic synth bass with a weird distorted screech at the end.

Availability: Seen on old Swedish tapes at the time.
