Logo (July 14, 1978?-Early 1990s)
Visuals: On a black background, an outlined film reel zooms out with a trail effect. After that, it spins and a red "A" draws in, then after that, "ARISTA FILMS" wipes in.
Variant: A widescreen version exists.
Technique: Cel animation.
Audio: None, but one occasion included a synth drone at the complete result.
Availability: Seen on films at the time, including foreign prints of Mortuary (1983) and Slaughterhouse Rock. On newer prints of these films, it may appear after (or be plastered entirely) by a Multicom logo.
