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.
Logo (1984-1985)
Visuals: 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.
Audio: 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.
