scroll up. The words are blue with white shadow effects.
Technique: Chyron effects.
Audio: A drum beating and five organ notes repeating 3 times.

2nd Logo (1985-1980's?)
Visuals: On a black background, a blue borderline square zooms in, bringing in a white background. Then a red borderline square zooms by. Then the blue Video for Pleasure logo (A blue square with rounded edges with silhouettes of a dad, a boy, a girl and a mom and below that "VIDEO FOR" and below that "PLEASURE". Lines are above, between and below the words.) slowly eases in. As this happens, a green borderline triangle zooms by, then a violet borderline triangle zooms by. Then a red version of the square of the family silhouettes appears in the upper left, then another one appears on the lower right, then another appears on the lower left, then another appears on the upper right. After the logo is done easing in, "PRESENTEERT" in yellow with black bordering wipes itself in on the blue logo in front of the silhouettes.
Variant: Sometimes, the "PRESENTEERT" text does not appear.
Technique: Chyron effects.
Audio: A funky electronic synthesized tune with a guitar at the end.
Availability: Seen on Dutch releases from the company such as Scandal Sheet.
