Gaumont Columbia TriStar Home Video: Difference between revisions

==Gaumont Columbia Films RCA Video==

'''Availability:''' On French releases of [[Gaumont (France)|Gaumont]] and [[Columbia Pictures]] (and [[TriStar Pictures]]) and even some Orion Pictures movies from the time. It's unsure but doubtful if it appears on Canadian French releases distributed by ISV, like Alone in the Dark (to name one).

'''Legacy:''' Really simple animation

'''Logo:''' On a space background, several balls zoom out with trail effects to the back of the screen. A 3D version of the Gaumont logo then drops down with a trail behind it and zooms out to its position, just as the balls stop. A blue wire frame trail then zooms in and reveals itself to be the Columbia Pictures print logo (but with "films" instead), swinging a bit before stopping in the middle. The RCA logo then comes in and moves into position, with the "A" flipping in the process. "VIDEO" zooms in beside it and 2 halves of a 3-tiered rectangle outline then come in, enclosing the logo. The spaces are then wiped with black to block out the stars. The final result is exactly the same as the previous logo; the differences being the Columbia logo and the tighter spacing.

'''Legacy:''' Better than before, but it's very primitive.

'''Logo:''' On a black background, we see a portrait of the [[Columbia Pictures]] torch lady spin in from the top left corner of the screen. The [[TriStar Pictures|TriStar]] pegasus portrait does the same from the opposing direction. The words "TRISTAR" and "COLUMBIA" slide in from opposing sides of the screen, only to slightly zoom back and position themselves on their proper portrait. Then, a gradient lilac version of the [[Gaumont (France)|Gaumont]] daisy zooms out and spins, situating itself on the top of the logo. The Gaumont text fades in while "HOME VIDEO" slides down from the two portraits and zooms back slightly. A box outline fades in, encasing the logo.
