The Aoi Iro Team (United Kingdom)

Background

The Aoi Iro Team was a small British film production (formerly distribution) company that was best known for making the Yuthana and Siripon movies. It was founded by Arthur Cole in September 7, 1968 after his previous company, "Arthur International Productions", was closed because it ran out of money, but he was come back to the film industry. In 1988, the company stopped distributing independent movies and started producing its own films for both Channel Four Television and the BBC. In March 7, 1996, after a half-year which Yuthana and Siripon: Eternal Forever, the studio was folded into the Japanese recording company King Records for its investigation. Finally in late 1998, after the success of Kohmi Hirose's album THE BEST "Love Winters" in the United Kingdom, she took over the studio, and it was reincorporated as a United Kingdom branch of Kohmi Hirose Entertainment, and because of that, King Records left the studio shortly after.

(1996), starring Kohmi Hirose and Naomi Tamura.

Editor's Note: Regarded as one of the scariest logos from Crystal Letter Films, due to the loud noises, darkness, and bit creepy animation. The Night Escape version has even worse, thanks to the louder noise than others.
