Vestron Video International

Background
Vestron Video International was formed in 1982 by Vestron Video as a vehicle for international releases of titles it had acquired for distribution. Headquartered in the Netherlands, where it owned a manufacturing facility that served primarily European countries, it owned branches in the United Kingdom, Canada, Australia, Japan, Mexico and many other countries, and was the second-largest international video distributor after Warner Home Video. The international assets were broken off and sold to various companies in the period following Vestron's acquisition by LIVE Entertainment. Its United Kingdom assets in particular became property of ITV franchise holder HTV, and were reorganized as First Independent Films.

1st Logo (1986)
TBA.

2nd Logo (1987-1991)
Nickname: "The Red Circle-V"

Logo: Same as the 1986 Vestron Video logo, except the word "INTERNATIONAL" is added under "VESTRON VIDEO".

Variants:
 * On releases from Spanish-speaking countries in Latin America, "INTERNATIONAL" is replaced with "ESPAÑOL".
 * Another version has a violet Circle-V.

FX/SFX: Same as the 1986 Vestron Pictures logo.

Music/Sounds: Same as the 1986 Vestron Pictures logo.

Availability: Rare. This international version of the logo can be seen only on PAL versions of Vestron Video VHS tapes. This logo can be seen on NTSC tapes from (at least) Canada, Mexico, Brazil or Japan and SECAM tapes from France or Russia. The "ESPAÑOL" variant has been spotted on a Spanish-subtitled cassette of Into the Fire (also known as The Legend of Wolf Lodge). The "ESPAÑOL" variant was also, according to a YouTube comment, seen on a 2005 Spanish-dubbed TeleFutura airing of the 1986 film Salvador before the Hemdale logo (possibly because TeleFutura used the Spanish VHS's master).

Editor's Note: Same as the 1986 Vestron Video logo.
