Background
Time-Life Multimedia is a division of Time-Life Films, known for distributing educational films.
Logo (March 22, 1978?-Mid 1980s?)
Visuals: On a black background, a white, conjoined, slanted "TL" (with the "L" connected near the end of the "T") zooms into place onto a television-like box with a red screen in the center, forming trails of itself as it moves (a la the 1977 Filmways logo). Once it reaches the screen, it quickly flashes and merges with the box to form the logo. The stacked text "TIME LIFE MULTIMEDIA" fades in underneath the logo when it completes its formation.
Trivia: This logo is a modified variant of the Time-Life Television logo of the time, with the music from that logo being used as well.
Variant: There are filmed and videotaped variations of this logo.
Technique: Scanimation.
Audio: A shrill Moog synthesizer sounder performed by Leonard Rosenman.
Availability: It was known to have been seen on film (and some video) prints of NOVA and Horizon.
