Background

Signum Video Home was a video distributor in Argentina.

Logo (1980s)

Visuals: On a blue/light blue gradient background, several lines draw on the right. About when it's done, there is a weird yellow thing moving in from the bottom of it, and the logo fades to red lines moving to the left. The yellow thing appears again moving to the opposite direction. It then fades into a light on the top center of the screen. It comes down like a comet and we see the red lines scrolling down. They loop and then connect, creating a parallelogram. The comet comes back and puts the white "<< SIGNUM >>" inside the parallelogram. It comes back to insert the text "VIDEO HOME", which flips until placed at the bottom right, and the comet becomes a light. The logo zooms in after all of that.

Technique: Cel animation.

Audio: "Close Encounters of the Third Kind" by Isao Tomita.

Availability: Spotted on an Argentine VHS of Therefore It Is.
