Caballero Home Video was an American pornographic home entertainment company, and was the home entertainment division of Caballero Control Corporation.

Caballero Control Corporation Home Video

1st Logo (Early 1980s)

Visuals: On a black background, the logo swoops down from the top of the screen while straightening up, before zooming up to the middle of the screen. It consists of the "CCC" from before, but in white and italicized, and the white text "CABALLERO CONTROL CORPORATION HOME VIDEO" next to it. All of it is stacked up, with "CABALLERO CONTROL CORPORATION" in a thinner font and the latter two under the former, and "HOME VIDEO" in a much thicker font, as well as "VIDEO" having a blue/yellow/red tricolored stripe inside it. They are divided by three slash marks in each space. It stays on screen for a few seconds before it sinks into the bottom of the screen a la the 1985 Family Home Entertainment logo.

Technique: 2D cel animation.

Audio: None.

Availability: Can be seen on tapes of their adult films from the era.^[Examples?]

2nd Logo (Mid 1980s)

Visuals: On a space background, stars slowly zoom towards the screen, as the C's from before in blue zoom in. They remain tilted at first, but eventually tilt downwards to face the screen straight on. Eventually the logo splits in two and zooms off to both sides of the screen, as the same "CABALLERO CONTROL CORPORATION HOME VIDEO" text from before (note the lines inside "VIDEO") but all in blue, zooms in spinning rapidly before stopping. It then fades out, leaving the space background.

Variant: There exists a version with a copyright date at the beginning.

Technique: CGI.

Audio: It starts off with a dark bass humming sound, which is joined by a rising synth chord. It's followed by a "crash" when the Cs split up, and ends with a synth stinger.

Availability: Same as before.^[Examples?]

Caballero Home Video

Logo (1998-January 1999)

Visuals: On a night city skyline background, the text "CABALLERO HOME VIDEO" zooms in on the top corner. A byline can be seen below.

Technique: 2D computer animation.

Audio: Unknown.

Availability: Seen on Caballero's adult tapes of the time.^[Examples?]
