General Video (Spain)

Logo (Mid-Late 1980s)

Visuals: There is a pixelated closeup of an image which decreases to generate a closeup of a flying seagull with black segmented lines underneath on an orange background. Shortly after, a shot of their logo on a white background barely fades in. Another shot of the logo fades in, but scrolling through the text. We then go back to the closeup, which pixelates again, then in contrary direction, then again alongside the closeup. When the pixels finally decreases, it starts flipping then back to contrary direction. The shot then abruptly disappears, as we scroll to reveal a white background with a light blue rectangle that has black segmented lines expanding in size the further away, alongside an orange circle, that includes the flying seagull from before, along the black segmented lines. Underneath all of them is the text "General Video" in a 3D script typeface.

Technique: Computer animation.

Audio: "Nuit A Shanghai" by Jean-Michel Jarre.

Availability: Seen on releases by them, such as Texas Crime.
