Mollin Video

Logo (1999-2001?)

Visuals: Cutting in to a cloudy blue sky scrolling to the right and a lens flare glaring across it, a black cherry bomb dives down from the top right to the bottom left corner of the screen. The bomb has a large white "M" and a smaller "V" to the right of it, as well as what appears to be a registered trademark symbol below it, and it also spins as it dives down. It then cuts to a overhead shot of some odd-looking plains, with plainer clouds scrolling from top to bottom and the bomb spinning all over the place as it dives down to the lower left. It then cuts to a flat shot of the field and the sky, with the orange text "MOLLIN VIDEO" zooming out and the bomb slowly dropping down into the gap in-between them, and as soon as it does, the wick is lit. Cutting to a close up of the wick reaching the bomb briefly, it then explodes into a shower of sparks and it blasts shell debris everywhere, blacking out the screen entirely as "PRESENTS" fades in and out in the same shiny orange font as the "MOLLIN VIDEO" text.

Technique: CGI.

Audio: First we hear a jet fly by. Then we hear a descending synth chime as the cherry bomb drops, while musical synth warbles, a whoosh as the company name flies in, fire crackling as the fuse burns, then a low-quality "boom".

Availability: Seen on all Mollin Video releases in the UK, such as Home to Rent videos.
