Video Compact

From the Audiovisual Identity Database, the motion graphics museum

1st Logo (1984)

Visuals: On a black background, a purple futuristic arc with the letters "vc" in it rises up, and the orange words "VIDEO COMPACT" in a stacked format slide in from the right. A short line slides from the top, and an outlined white rectangle slides from below. The rectangle fills up with a wiping transition, and the logomark along with the text leave a trail.

Technique: Computer effects.

Audio: An upbeat brass synth piece.

2nd Logo (1989)

Visuals: From a black background, there is a dark magenta cross mark protruding near the lower-left corner of the screen, with a fuzzy magenta border. In it, the words "VIDEO COMPACT" type in starting from the vertical to the horizontal order. By the remaining side, a hot pink square emerges, with the stacked "VIDEO COMPACT" in a regular size inside it. This only takes for about 5 seconds, as the cross and the words fade out, where the square zooms and engulfs the remaining screen. Towards the middle, a magenta diamond emerges and overtakes the screen by black.

Technique: Computer animation.

Audio: An electronic-type beat section. This is part of the beginning of "Wake Dream" by Lime.
