Video Classics: Difference between revisions

'''Logo''': Starting off on a black screen, the logo begins by cutting to...a shot of a woman's butt in the shower. This is followed by a shot of the same woman putting on her panties, with the camera following them up, but before we get to see any naughty bits, it then cuts to a few different pictures of waves and surfers on those waves. It then cuts to a close up of an eagle's face, followed by a cheap-looking UFO on a starry backdrop, before finally cutting to a funky-looking tunnel effect at the end. As we fly through the tunnel, a wine-colored, white-outlined computer-generated square flies in from the top right and then swoops into the middle, leaving a heavy trail behind it as the tunnel fades out. On the square is the Video Classics logo, which is a off-center cote-out of the Times New Roman text "VIDEO CLASSICS", stacked on top of each other and both have the first and last letters of them doubled in size. The trail continues for a bit, along with some distortion around the edges, before the logo freezes and the trail disappears.

'''Music/Sounds''': An excerpt of the electronic disco song "Chase" by Giorgio Moroder with a male announcer saying "Video Classics presents the finest range of home video movies available in Australia. Video Classics are all top quality movies duplicated to the highest standards available in the world. For further details on the other video movies available, please contact your local dealer, or ring Sydney 926400 for these details."

'''Logo''': On a black background, a pink line draws in from right to left, staying on screen for a few seconds. After which, it condenses into a small pink square and disappears, causing a "switch-on" effect for the logo to appear in pink static, which consists of "'''VIDEO CLASSICS'''" in a blocky font with rounded edges and is sitting in a tilted "3D" perspective. The logo starts off as dim, solid pink static, but clears out and brightens up over time, gaining a pink outline at the end. At the end, the static disappears to reveal a hot pink glow on the inside and and a translucent pink light trail appears behind and in front of it.

'''Music/Sounds''': A low electronic piano glissando ("Kometenmelodie 1" by Kraftwerk) as the line draws in, then a sweeping synthesized noise when "Video Classics" fades in, followed by an excerpt of"Kometenmelodie 2" by Kraftwerk.

'''Logo''': On a black background, several light sparks streak by from left to right, creating several lines in red, green, yellow, and blue colors, ending with 2 thicker white ones on the top and bottom. The whole thing resembles a parallelogram. Another white parallelogram with 2 blue lines in it, along with the text "VIDEO" in a serif font, zoom out and paste themselves onto the lines, with the translucent white parallelogram filling in with black as well. After they plaster themselves, the thick blue "'''''Classics'''''" writes itself out in a cursive font.

'''Music/Sounds''': An analog synth bassline accompanied by synthesized chirps when lasers pass by, a "whirring" sound when "Video" zooms out while the bassline fades out, then a four-note synth fanfare as "Classics" is being written out.

* At the end of a March 1984 trailer tape, the end of the logo repeats several times, twice for the disc animation, twice for the O's light shining, and finally, the logo resting on a pitch-black background, shining constantly (with poor looping as well).

'''Music/Sounds''': An ominous theme before building up into a two-note fanfare, a bang, and finally, a quiet synth arpeggio.

'''Variant''': A generic version of this logo just has the logo zooming in and flipping a few times, right before it zooms and skews out of frame.

'''Music/Sounds''': An excerpt of the funky synth-keyboard disco tune "Protopulse" by Trevor Bastow. An announcer says "More quality home entertainment from Video Classics!" before the tune ends. The generic version uses a disco-synth tune that sounds like a cover/remix of "Get Up Action" by Digital Emotion.
