1st Logo (1980s-1990s)

• 
• 

Nicknames: "The Compass", "The Personification of All That is Soothing"

Logo: 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.

FX/SFX: The water, the compass, the company name fading in below.

Music/Sounds: A synth rendition of the first portion of "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 Just Dennis. Appears at the beginning of Amazon Prime Video's print of Act of Will.

Editor's Note: A few might get a little nervous over the whoosh sound, but the light atmosphere of the logo and the music makes this one very soothing. The compass is a little cheap but really not that bad.

2nd Logo (Mid 1990s-)

Logo: A gold colored compass is shown on a black background along with the company name in gold capital lettering.

FX/SFX: This is a still logo.

Music/Sounds: None.

Availability: Current.

Editor's Note: Compared to the previous logo, it's boring.
