Background
DIC Video was the home video imprint of DIC Entertainment, originally created as part of a partnership between DIC and Golden Book Video. In addition to this, the label was also used for Kids Klassics releases and for self-distribution for mail-order.
The last release under the imprint was A Hollywood Hounds Christmas in 1994, around the same time it's follow-up label - DIC Toon-Time Video, was created.
1st Logo (1987-1989)
Logo: On a black/purple gradient background, we see the word "DiC" in its standard font. Below it is the word “VIDEO” sandwiched between two white lines. A constellation is above the whole thing.
Technique: None.
Music/Sounds: None.
Availability: Extremely rare. This is only known to appear on Heathcliff releases released by Golden Books Family Entertainment. Most releases that use this logo on the packaging (like other Golden Book Video or Kids Klassics releases) just use the regular 1987 logo or the "PRESENTS" version of the latter.
2nd Logo (1987-1989)
Logo: Same as the warp-speed version of the 1987 DIC logo, but after the logo finishes, the video freezes as "PRESENTS" quickly appears below letter by letter, in Helvetica (or Arial).
Variants:
- 1987 tapes used the version of the logo with the "TM" symbol, while "PRESENTS" wiped itself from the right.
Music/Sounds: Same as the warp-speed version of the DIC logo or the choir variant (preserving the Coca-Cola Telecommunications tune when "PRESENTS" wipes itself down).
Availability: Appears on several Golden Book Video releases such as StarCom, Sylvanian Families, Beverly Hills Teens and The New Archies.
