Background

1st Logo (1984-1990s?)
The video of this logo may be too loud or severely distorted. |
Logo: We see a blue star with a gold outline zooming out on a space background. "ULTRA STEREO" (with the two words separated by a star) in a pink-blue gradient font zoom in and flip on the background. The star causes the logo to shine, and the shine resonates across the logo. "PRESENTED IN" (in a Century Gothic-type font) wipes in above.
Technique: CGI.
Music/Sounds: A loud whoosh, followed by a pound when the star hits the logo, along with dreamy synth music afterwards.
Availability: Extinct.
