There is an abstract M sitting below, on a black floor with white spots. The V-shaped triangle spins down quickly into the M-shaped piece, and when the triangle hits the M, the resulting rectangle "jiggles" as if it were made of gelatin. The "V" from the Virgin logo, in magenta, is drawn over the rectangle, and the words "VIRGIN", "MUSIC", and "VIDEO" appear separately in a Futura-like font. The logo shines a bit.FX/SFX: '80s computer animation.Music/Sounds: A somewhat ominous synth theme with horns when the V draws in, and some flutes as the text appears.Availability: Rare. It appears on music videos of the period, mostly PAL releases, though it was used on some NTSC releases too.Editor's Note: Okay enough animation for the time, though the bouncing of the rectangle is hilariously out of place. You can also see the ground vibrate as this happens, which probably wasn't intentional.

The Chief Executive Officer is Jason Felts and the Chief Creative Officer is Justin Berfield (who played Resse in the American sitcom Malcolm in the Middle).

Viridus

Background: Viridus was a video game developer founded around 1993 or 1994, not far from the Phillips USA offices. They helped developed a few titles, including the infamous Zelda's Adventure, the only one of the LoZ trio of games with FMV and a live-action look. However, due to the inexperienced staff, as well as the failure of the CD-i, most of their other games were buggy and not released, and after a few more games on PC, they closed down in 1996. Other than a few sources, there's very little info on the developer.(June 5th, 1994-June 19, 1995)Nicknames: "Parchment and Gold", "The Logo That Appears Before Zelda's Adventure"Logo: On a black background, a golden chakram-like ring, along with 4 dark green cubes revolving around the top of the ring, moves into frame. Each side of the green cubes have a golden diagonal line on them. The cubes eventually meet in the center of the ring as it moves from the center, and flips to the bottom right of the screen. It then flips several times, each time "launching" a cube to the left center of the screen, creating a green square with a golden "V" on it. As the square finishes up, the ring then flies off-screen and the background fades to something that looks like a green piece of parchment. The dark green text "IRIDUS" fades in beside the square, creating "VIRIDUS", and "Produced By" appears just above the left side of the logo in dark green.FX/SFX: The ring spinning, the cubes flying, the background change.Music/Sounds: A simple bass/snare drum beat, ending with a new-age synth theme.Availability: Extremely rare. Seen so far once, and only once, on Zelda's Adventure for the CD-I. Editor's Note: Compared with the rest of the game it appeared on, it's well-animated for the time.
Virtual Boy

Background: Following the success of the Game Boy worldwide, Nintendo announced the Virtual Boy console (first known as the VR-32) in 1994 and released it the following year in August 1995 in America. Designed by the late Gunpei Yokoi, the designer of the Game Boy, the Virtual Boy used early stereoscopic 3D technology, albeit limited to red and black to save costs. The console was a commercial failure, selling about 770,000 units and lasting only until March of 1996. Most complaints were toward the 3D effects and limited colors, which caused eye strain and sickness for most users. As a result, only 22 games were made in the NTSC territory -- 14 were sold in North America and 19 were sold in Japan. Due to its failure, there was no release in the PAL territory (Europe and Australia).(July 21, 1995-March 2, 1996)Nickname: "Bloody 3D"Logo: On a black background, we see a bunch of red lines in the center, and the words "VIRTUAL BOY" inside a black rectangle with a red border.FX/SFX: None.Music/Sounds: None.Availability: Seen when you turn on a Virtual Boy console.Editor's Note: Your eyes will probably be sore if you stare at this logo (or anything the system displays) for long periods of time.

There's still light coming behind the door when the logo is completely formed.FX/SFX: The light moving and forming the logo.Music/Sounds: A calm synth theme played against whooshes and sparkling noises.Availability: Seen on several films like Nancy Drew, Poseidon and 300.Scare Factor: Low.
Visa Films S.A. (Spain)

Background: A rather obscure theatrical and home video distribution company based in Madrid, it was probably founded by 1984 and lasted until 1992.
