(Early '80s)

Logo: On a yellow background, the Intervision V appears zooming, leaving rainbow trails of "V" which merge into one. It then fades out and the yellow background opens like a door (leaving lots of rainbow residue trails) into a black background. The Intervision logo (with both "Inter" and "ision" replaced by "Trio" and "Tara") was there, though the dot above the V wasn't there. Later, the dot appears sliding slowly from the left (again, leaving many rainbow residue trails) to the top of the V. The final product pretty much looks like a modified version of the Intervision logo.

Variants: Usually before the logo actually starts, a test card is shown with the words "TRIO VIDEO TARA" written over it. The font for the words may vary from tape to tape.

FX/SFX: The V, the opening background, the dots. Everything's done in a cheap way.

Music/Sounds: A majestic royal-sounding theme, ending with a 3-note bombastic sounder.

Music/Sounds Variant: The test card had the music "Lake Como" by Sweet People.

Availability: Extinct. It issued martial arts films from TVB/ATV, animation (both Western and Japanese), etc.

Editor's Note: None.
