Background
In 1984, Filmways left Video Classics to join K-TEL Video. Video Tape Center had a contract with K-TEL Video and decided to merge with its own home video division to form a joint venture Filmways VTC, with K-TEL Video serving as its distributor. VTC left the venture quickly in 1985 due to its troubles, and soon afterwards, it was reverted to the Filmways Home Video name.
(1984-1985)
Logo: On a blue background, we see a white rectangle. Inside it was the text "filmways VTC" in rainbow, with "f" representing the Filmways VTC logo. The text "presents" wipes below the logo.
Variant: The logo was often used as a preview bumper, with the logo being in sky blue.
Technique: Computer animation.
Music/Sounds: None.
Availability: The standalone logo was seen on few Australian VHS releases, like Sword of the Barbarians and Alone in the Dark, but most tapes use the K-TEL Video logo instead. It was commonly seen on previews of other releases.
