Background
IFD Films and Arts Limited is a company from Hong Kong, founded in 1973 by Joseph Lai, which specializes in B-movies, especially the movies of Godfrey Ho.
1st Logo (Mid 1980s)
Logo: On the top of a cliff, we see a woman in white pants and top, with a long white veil on her head, holding a torch with a bright light at the end. The sky is very dark. The camera zooms in and the words, that are in orange and in the art-deco font:
presents
a Joseph Lai release
slide in from the bottom, and the last line slides in from the left.
Trivia: The footage from this logo comes from the 1982 film Pink Force Commando.
FX/SFX: The zooming in and the sliding in of the text. The woman is in live action.
Music/Sounds: The music is directly taken from Star Wars: Episode IV - A New Hope (from the part when the Devastator, Darth Vader's Star Destroyer, first appears), with the end cut of and replaced with some different fanfare, closed by some drums.
Availability: Very rare. Mostly seen on movies made by Godfrey Ho. It's preserved on Ninja the Protector and Ninja of the Magnificence.
2nd Logo (1980s-2000s?)
Logo: On an animated black background with a bokeh effect, the purple words:
presents
a Joseph Lai releasefade in with the company name in Chinese below it. After a while, the text fades out, leaving us with the bokeh background before the logo ends.
FX/SFX: The animated bokeh background, text fading in and out.
Music/Sounds: A triumphant fanfare.
Availability: Common. It can be found on copies of the infamous Space Thunder Kids, Beauty & Warrior, and Ali Baba and the Gold Raiders.
