Background
Odyssey Video was a home video company from United Kingdom.
1st Logo (1983-1990s)
Visuals: On a sky blue background with shimmering water below, a dark blue compass flies down and eases in towards the screen. Soon it stops, the water disappears and below "ODYSSEY" in white fades in below.
Variants:
- The logo was used in a still for previews. It is upward and smaller with "OTHER TITLES FROM OUR CATALOGUE" in white below.
- A textless variant exists.
Technique: Analogue 2D animation with live-action elements.
Audio: A synth rendition of the first portion of Gounod's "Ave Maria", which is a soothing tune with the sound of waves washing ashore when the compass moves.
Availability:
- Seen on releases from the UK such as The Cartier Affair, That Sinking Feeling, Christmas on Division Street and Dennis the Menace: Dinosaur Hunter (released in the UK as Just Dennis).
- It is also intact at the beginning of Amazon Prime Video's print of Act of Will.
2nd Logo (Mid 1990s-)
This logo is currently missing in action. Please do not add reconstructions of the logo if any exist, as they are likely not accurate to the actual logo. Additionally, do not attempt to add a finalized description of the logo until it has been found in its entirety. |
Visuals: A gold colored compass is shown on a black background along with the company name in gold capital lettering.
Technique: Unknown.
Audio: None.
Availability: Unknown. [Examples?]
