1st Logo (1980s)

Logo: On a black background with a white grid, we see a projector with a photo of the man singing in a silhouette on a left, sliding in. The word "LUCIAN FILMS S.A. slides in from the right of the projector, and it flickers with a pair of rainbow colors sliding in. The word "Video" in a blue script zooms out from the right.

FX/SFX: The sliding and zooming, simple tacky effects.

Music/Sounds: A catchy synthetiser theme.

Availability: Seen on many VHS Argentina prints such as Miami Cops, Techica De Un Homicidio, El Macho, Alien 2, El Verdugo Implacable, Lola, Peloton Salvaje, Orden De Matar, La Picara Mujer Policia, Violencia Carnal, Flavia y Grock, Las Travesuras De Dot, Cancion De La Muerte, and Ico: El Caballito Valiente.

Editor's Note: None.

2nd Logo (1990s)

Logo: On a background of multicolored shapes in 3D, we see a triangle moving. The shapes then turn around over a black background, and we see a pair of spheres, cubes and triangles forming together to form a white background, and it takes the entire the screen. The word "LUCIAN FILMS" in black with a white outline, then, letter-by-letter, it zooms in to form the same text in blue, with a drop shadow. Sometimes, the text fades out to make room for "PRESENTA" or "ANTICIPA" in yellow.

FX/SFX: CGI animation.

Music/Sounds: The Video Marc Doncel jingle

Availability: Seen on some Lucian Films Video releases from the era.

Editor's Note: None.
