1st Logo (1980s)
Logo: We start with a rippling water background, then eight ripples appear, seven of them having two rings whilst the last one has five rings and the jellyfish. The jellyfish, which is black and has a navy, blue, green and magenta top, rises from the water, dripping as it ascends into the sky. We then cut to a photo of a sky, with the jellyfish rising and dripping before the liquid below forms the company name, with the top, now shorter, sitting at the top of the text.
Technique: Cel animation.
Audio: A creepy, but funky synth theme, accompanied with sound effects.
Availability: It only appeared on series of beta/VHS tapes in greek, you'll never find one in USA, but take the challenge if you are up for it.
