Background

Carousel Films is an educational film & home media distribution corporation operated between the 1960s and in the 1970s and the 1980s. It was known for distributing CBS News and ABC News outputs for educational rights, as well as distributing educational 16mm films from other educational film companies.

(1970?-1983?)

Logo: On a blue, green, black, or dark blue background, we see a yellow carousel. The words "CAROUSEL FILMS, INC." fades in for a second, and the words "PRESENTS" pops in below the company name.

Variants:

There is a distribution variant, where the carousel is placed to make room for the company name. Underneath, we see "DISTRIBUTED BY" and below that is "CAROUSEL FILMS, INC.".
There is a black and white variant.

Technique: 2D animation.

Music/Sounds: A timpani roll, followed by a trumpet-driven fanfare.

Music Sounds Variant: None for the distribution variant.

Availability: Very rare; this was seen on some educational films from the 70s-80s, mainly on CBS News films and others, like J.T., The Captain Is A Lady, and Eastern Mystics Of The Golden West. The opening variant is ultra rare, but it was seen on Mothers and Daughters (1969). Check on Internet Archive, WorldCat or YouTube websites for more infos.
