Technique: Same as the 1981 Columbia Pictures logo.
Music/Sounds: None.
Availability: Again, rare. It's one of the first de-facto video logos ever, alongside the 20th Century-Fox Video logo. It was seen on several CPHE and early RCA/Columbia releases from the era, like The Black Bird and Hard Times (itself Columbia films), Love and Anarchy, The French Detective and One Sings, the Other Doesn't. Columbia releases by itself, as well as the VHS of Diana Ross in Concert skipped the logo and went straight to the Columbia logo used by the film.
