Background

Producciones Optimist, S.A. was an Argentine home video distributor that was active in the early 1990s.

Logo (1991-1992)

Visuals: The camera zooms out from a background consisting of wavy, glitchy-looking bright green and purple lines to reveal the silhouette of the logo, which is made up of a symbol that consists of a curved line with a scribble to its right, the word "OPTIMIST" and a wavy line below it. Very shortly after the screen is fully seen, the "OPTIMIST" and symbol both fill in with white and red respectively, and change color. The wavy line fills in with cyan and the "OPTIMIST" text goes dark again. Then, the background begins to scroll horizontally while the symbol lightly flashes red. After approximately fifteen seconds, the word "PRESENTA" zooms out to cover the wavy line, and the same glitchy lines begin to radiate from the symbol as the camera zooms into the background. Finally, after approximately ten more seconds, various copies of the screen appear and shuffle away.

Technique: 2D computer animation mixed in with computer effects.

Audio: The music is "Delta Two" by Synergy, starting at the 2:05 mark.

Availability: So far, only three 90's VHS tapes containing the logo have been found, those tapes being Apelación Fatal, Peacemaker, and El travieso.

Legacy: This logo is pretty infamous within the logo community, with common criticisms including the green and purple color scheme, which has been deemed garish by some, and the potentially epileptic-unfriendly animation.
