2nd Logo (Late 1980s-Early 1990s)

Logo: On a space background, we see a blue metallic filmstrip. The sprocket holes disappear and the shape positions itself. A blue, small, thin line quickly passes through the shape, making a metallic line appear, forming a lowercase letter "f". The word "FILMAYER" appears letter by letter. Now the word "VIDEO" zooms in towards the screen, and settles beneath the word "FILMAYER".

FX/SFX: The shape, the word appearing, and the word zooming.

Music/Sounds: None.

Availability: Seen on Who are Pixie and Dixie? before the Turner and Hanna-Barbera logos.

Editor's Note: None.
