Teichiku Video

From the Audiovisual Identity Database, the motion graphics museum


Logo (1985-1995)


Visuals: On a black background with a blue diagonal horizon, a bunch of yellow sparks wipes in the yellow word "TEICHIKU" with it facing an upper-right portion, and a pink outlined word "VIDEO" rises up with video feedback trail while facing the aforementioned portion. The trail fades out, and the word shines. The logo zooms in as the background turns to blue, and the logo zooms out while flipping. It wipes into white by a light.

Variant: On some early tapes, the bunch of sparks is replaced with some orange rays and "VIDEO" doesn't shine. Also, the animation is in-sync with the music.

Technique: Scanimation and video feedback effects.

Audio: An ascending and descending whoosh, followed by several synth chime notes. This is ended by a synth chord and a 5-note synth chime.

Availability: Seen on a VHS release of The Thundering Ninja.
