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.
