Video Village

(Early-Mid 1980s?)
Logo: On a zooming space background, the logo of the company slides above, slowly zooming out and stands still in the middle. It consists of a red abstract continous "V" with and  rounded shapes from the "V" seen from below, alongside an upside-down copy of it seen from above, with "VIDEOVILLAGE" over the middle.

Variant: A closing version was used where the logo's movements is slightly shifted upper, to make room for the fading text:

Arial Arial Arial

The whole logo stands still over a few seconds.

Technique: Camera-controlled animation.

Music/Sounds: A triumphant fanfare, which is "Fanfare #2" by Neil Richardson.

Availability: Ultra rare. Not much is known about this company, as it made quite a few releases. It appears on House of the Lute, The Woman Avenger and Born Invincible (later distributed by Laboratorios RAK in Spain).
