Background
Karl Video Corporation was formed in 1981 by Stuart Karl. Initially releasing documentaries, the company hit big in 1982 with the Jane Fonda's Workout series, while expanding on its roots to include Warren Miller ski documentaries, exercise videos with Richard Simmons and independent feature films. It was later renamed to Karl Home Video in 1984, and the company was later sold to Lorimar Productions later that year, renaming the home video company to Karl-Lorimar Home Video.
1st Logo (1982)

Technique: None.
Music/Sounds: None.
Availability: Seen on the first edition of Jane Fonda's Workout.
2nd Logo (1983-1985)
Logo: We see parts of the bottom of a giant "K" slide up from the bottom of the screen, and the top half (in whole) flip up afterward. After, the K glows orange and gains a much thicker outline. The end result looks similar to the logo of Kartes Video Communications. There is no company name below the logo.
Variant: There is also a print version that was seen at the start of Jane Fonda's Workout videos where the "K" stands in a box with "KARL" on the left and "VIDEO" on the right.
Technique: Computer effects.
Music/Sounds: An upbeat disco fanfare, "Winning Momentum" by Craig Palmer from Network Music, but the logo is usually silent.
