Logo (1980s?)
Visuals: On a dark, zooming space background, we see the aquamarine word "EMPIRE" in a giant 3D futuristic font (very similar to that of the EVC logo), slanted at a right angle (opposite of the Dimension Pictures logo) "backflip" from out of nowhere and it goes far into the background for a few seconds. Then, it comes back towards us, this time in a twirling motion. The word "PRESENTS" in a outlined blocky font appears below. The space background freezes after 5 seconds it appears.
Technique: 2D computer animation.
Audio: A tranquil Moog synth sounder.
Availability: Seen on tapes released by the company at the time such as The Spirits of Jupiter.
