Do not watch this video if you have epilepsy or are prone to seizures.Logo: On a black background, a very small word is seen in the center of the screen. Suddenly, a green aura appears above and trails into the background, causing the background to start flashing pink and the word to have streaks coming out. The word then zooms in, revealing it to be 'VIDEO". The trails and flashing then abruptly disappear as an orange laser "writes" the word "Selection" in cursive, as well as drawing a small white line under it. The logo, which is a inverted triangle cut near the bottom with a connected "VS" in it, fades in and the logo then starts to produce streaks again. The streaks then stop as everything except for the logo fades to blue. The words then fade in later.FX/SFX: Typical Argentinian effects for the time.Music/Sounds:A held note with crashes and a ascending synth, which pause at some time at the logo with a thunderstorm-like effect, then it goes back to the synth.Availability: Extremely rare. Seen on their releases of the time.Editor's Note: None.

It's elongated so that it's the same width as "TREASURES". The word "PRESENTS" wipes in below from the top. On the closing variation, "PRESENTS" is omitted.FX/SFX: Typical '80s computer animation.Music/Sounds: A classical orchestral piece that is likely stock music. Silent on the closing variation.Availability: Scarce. This appeared on some releases of the era, including a later VHS reprint of American Tickler. This logo may also appear on early releases of PD titles that they put out, notably Charade and It's a Wonderful Life.Editor's Note: None.2nd Logo(1987-1998)210px|Video Treasures<embed height="166" src="http://wikifoundrytools.com/wiki/closinglogos/widget/youtubevideo/0f5dd3f506b7bc4f8312058b8750721bfc5b36cb" type="application/x-shockwave-flash" width="201" wmode="transparent"/><embed align="bottom" height="166" src="http://wikifoundrytools.com/wiki/closinglogos/widget/youtubevideo/f909027fa0d4da226cb2024ec3b91cce2114311a" type="application/x-shockwave-flash" width="201" wmode="transparent"/>Nickname: "Migraine Marble"Logo: We see a tan-colored stone wall whose bricks have the "VIDEO TREASURES" logo, same as the 1st logo, carved on them.The carved logo in the center brick fades into marble (except for the underline under "VIDEO" which is red) and zooms in towards us and shines. Finally, the stone wall fades into a plain, blue-black gradient background, and the white word "Presents" appears under "VIDEO TREASURES".Variant: There is a version of this logo that appears at the end of tapes that features the shining Video Treasures logo on the gradient background, but without "Presents" (on the Thomas the Tank Engine and Friends tape "Rusty to the Rescue and Other Stories", this logo can even be seen at the beginning instead of the standard logo!), but not all releases have this variant.FX/SFX: The name turning into marble and zooming, the background change to blue and "Presents" fading-in.Music/Sounds: A short chime and then a long, warbling synth note which is held until the logo fades out. The closing variant without "PRESENTS" is silent.Availability: Rare. This logo appears on budget versions (recorded in SP, LP, or EP/SLP tape speeds) of Media Home Entertainment releases and such in the late 1980s to early/mid '90s. Video Treasures titles have since been re-released under the Anchor Bay name (with the old Video Treasures FBI warnings and tracking reminders intact). The last tapes to use this logo, including Halloween, as well as new releases actually used the Anchor Bay insignia on the packaging, but use this logo instead since the tapes were done before Anchor Bay began distributing them.Editor's Note: None.

Videofield International Limited (Nigeria)

(2010)Nicknames: "Nigerian Universal", "The Universal Pictures Of Nigeria", "The Cheapo Globe", "Cheapness International Limited", "Still More Blatant Theft"Logo: Upon zooming into a mountain, we fade into the planet Earth upon space. "VIDEOFIELD INTERNATIONAL" then appears as it was stretched. The text spins into its original position, then "LIMITED" zooms out. As the camera rotates to show the Earth, "VIDEOFIELD INTERNATIONAL" stretches in reverse and "LIMITED" keeps zooming out, but eventually stops, thus fully forming the company name.FX/SFX: It's a CGI logo.Music/Sounds: Same as the orchestrated theme of the 2001-2007 Revolution Studios logo, but with the whooshes cut off at the beginning.Availability: Seen on <a href="https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=zw-lEkg9L-I&t=24s" target="_self">...In Totality</a>, <a href="https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=JNmpBly7CY8" target="_self">Tricks of Women</a> and Tricks of Women 2.Editor's Note: The whole fanfare is too heroic and bombastic to scare people. However, you may laugh at the choppy CGI animation of the text, the blatant famous logo rip-off and the blatant music theft.

Videoland (Israel)

Logo descriptions by SnowflakesOmega and TeamLogo(1980s)Logo can be seen <a href="https://youtu.be/gN0dhZ6JNJ4?t=8m13s" target="_self">here</a>.Logo: Over a stock animation of a cheaply-animated cyan/white vortex with green circular streaks, we see purple Hebrew text near the center in two lines. The text then wipes out and then wipes in again with the yellow Latin alphabet text "VIDEOLAND". The Hebrew text then flashes in and out consecutively. The text then dissapears, the circular streaks turn into other colors, and then more Hebrew text appears again, with the first line being in purple and the second line being in green. Between them is the English text "VICTORY", in yellow and white. The text then wipes out and we cut into the warning screen.FX/SFX: The animated vortex, the text appearing and wiping out.Music/Sounds: A bombastic orchestral recording of "Swan Lake" by Pyotr Ilyich Tchaikovsky.Availability: Extremely rare. You will have to do some deep searching on VHS stores from Israel to find this logo.Editor's Note: Really cheap computer effects, looking how the vortex background was made probably with Scanimate and the text animation being from a low budget computer (equivalent of an MSX or Apple II), but for a low-budget video company it's actually justifiable. Knowing that, the vortex background and quite loud music can be somewhat imposing as well but not directly scary.

The camera rotates to the top of the rectangles as laser beams strike the rectangles (lighting up some of the animations) and filmstrips fly around. Once we are fully at the top, the scattered rectangles come together, and after a flash, transform into a rounded box containing color bars, which zooms out. A shiny purple/blue/gray bar zooms out underneath the color bars and emits light before turning into "VIDEOMAX". It shines for a brief moment and then stops. FX/SFX: Pretty impressive CGI for late 90s standards.Music/Sounds: A synthesized fanfare with laser sounds.Availability: Uncommon, seen on movies and TV shows on VHS and DVD, including Videomax's dub of Detective Conan. It was also spotted on a 1996 Spanish VHS of Corrina, Corrina.Editor's Note: None.

As a guitar lick begins to play, the spiral pattern rapidly blurs up and changes color. This goes on for a few seconds, then on a translucent black background the word VIDEORAMA (in a blocky '70s-style font) on a whitish background surrounding the letters appears several times, gradually getting larger. Then the "VIDEO" half appears, then the "RAMA" half, and the full word appears; then the word zooms in. The spiral pattern fades out and the words: PresenteertPräsentiertPresents(in a different '70s-style font) quickly fade in.FX/SFX: The spiral background and changing colors look pretty cool, but the blurring up and "VIDEORAMA" appearing so many times look really tacky.Music/Sounds: A 1970s rock tune that turns into a loud and proud bombastic orchestral fanfare.Availability: Seen on porn tapes from the U.S. and PAL regions, such as Trashi.Editor's Note: None.2nd Logo (1980s) <embed allowfullscreen="true" height="211" src="http://wikifoundrytools.com/wiki/closinglogos/widget/youtubevideo/b227e82281755cd6630563836fd78a044be11576" type="application/x-shockwave-flash" width="295" wmode="transparent"/>Nickname: "The Eye", "Pink Videorama"Logo: On a black background, we see a pink circle, with other pink circles that pop up a couple times for a split second surrounding it, zooming in slowly After that, they disappear, then another circle appears with pink stars flashing in the background, while still zooming in. Then an orange shape draws around the circle to resemble an eye. As the eye gets closer to the screen, it disappears, then letters quickly appear from left to right to form the word VIDEORAMA then a blue box surrounds the word, with lines also surrounding the box, the color in the letters disappears. After a seconds the word becomes light pink, while the box changes to hot pink, the lines around the box disappear, forming the logo, the word "PRESENTS.." appears below the logo, and the stars come back, while the logo slowly zooms out from us.FX/SFX: Zooming in, stars flashing.Music/Sounds: A 1970s sounding theme.Availability: Rare.
