Background

Premier International was a Hungarian VHS distributor operating throughout the 90's. They were best known for distributing GoodTimes Entertainment's "mockbuster" cartoon movies, as well as the Astérix and Lucky Luke cartoons in the country.

1st Logo (Early 1990s-1994)

Visuals: The screen fades in to an orange-tinted sky background with a thick black vertical line. The line rotates clockwise to reveal itself as a clapperboard, which then claps, revealing the blue-white gradient word "PREMIER" in a stenciled font, with "INTERNATIONAL" carved into a shiny bar below it on its board. A white ball of light then comes in from the top-right, passes by the clapperboard from the left, and makes the words on the board shine. The logo then fades out.

Technique: CGI.

Audio: A heavily synthesized pounding theme (which starts a few seconds before the logo fades in), with a deep bass note when the clapperboard rotates, a gong when it claps, a crescendo of whooshes when the light passes by, and two orchestral hits at the end.

Availability: Unknown. [Examples?]

2nd Logo (1994-Late 1990s)


Visuals: The screen zooms out from the letters of "PREMIER", now in a faded gold color, rotating inside a dark gray tower structure, from which an also rotating cyan ray of light illuminates. All this is in front of a dark space background with a cyan-toned nebula and a brown planet in the bottom-left (possibly Mars). As the camera zooms out to a comfortable distance, the letters fly out of the structure and to the front one-by-one, while the camera pans a little more.

Technique: CGI.

Audio: A shortened version of the music from before, starting with the gong hit.

Availability: Seen on GoodTimes' "mockbuster" releases, and the 1994 VHS release of Astérix le Gaul.
