1st Logo (1980s)
Visuals: The sequence starts 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: Appears on many Greek Beta/VHS tapes, such as Supertrain, Sword of Gideon and Hitler's S.S.: Portrait in Evil, among other titles.
