Australian Video: Difference between revisions

===Logo (c. 1983-c. 1985)===

'''Visuals:''' Against a starry {{color|darkblue|sea blue}}/black background, several bright stars of different sizes zoom out, with one moving downwards from the rest. This causes 2 stars to pulse apart and a {{color|silver}} token rotates towards the screen, shining along the edge and on the face so brightly, the entire face becomes white. When the shine dies down, it reveals that the token reads "AUSTRALIAN VIDEO" printed on it (with "AUSTRALIAN" being in a typewriter font and "VIDEO" in the Arial font). There also appears to be a strange version of the WWF logo above it (which is actually the former logo for the South Australian Film Corporation) and a difficult-to-read byline that reads "South Australian Film Corporation" (this is more visible in the print logos). While the token turns, a {{color|orange}} 4-pointed star appears and draws a wavy line before going down and underlining the entire bottom of the token before going up to its origin. As this happens, a distorted Union Jack appears in the upper left corner and the section fills with {{color|blue}}, and the stars die down to reveal 7-pointed stars and 1 5-pointed star. This, of course, is the Australian flag, and the background continues to move after it finishes forming.

'''Availability:''' Can be seen on old PBV tapes, as well as CEL tapes. One tape that had this was ''Hoodwink''. It is unknown if this appeared on the Embassy laser videodisc of ''Breaker Morant'', which was co-branded with Australian Video.
