Fantasia Films En Video (Argentina)

(1980's)

Nicknames: "Dual-Part Fantasia", "70's ABC/NBC Bumper In Argentina", "Cheesy Fantasia"

Logo:On a black background with shooting stars coming out from the center, three blue flashes appear on the center, followed by a yellow one, which later brings outa zooming drawing of the yellow sun, which later dissapears by a circle effect. The same flash/zooming sun part happens again, but when the sun fills the screen the logo freezes. The red/blue word "FANTASIA" appears in the top half, moves to the bottom half, then around the center. We then cut to a 70's American TV bumper (possibly ABC/NBC, more info shall be known about it) with the blue/yellow triangular shapes zooming out and bringing a blue wall of flashing lights, which later goes out again to form some text which is obscured by the same "FANTASIA" word. The bumper freezes. "FILMS EN VIDEO" appears below the company name. "PRESENTA" in a pink-like color grows in below these texts.

FX/SFX: Cheesy 2D animation.

Cheesy Factor: It seems like the company didn't got that big of a budget when making this logo. We mentioned that the 2D animation at the 2nd half is just stolen from a 70's TV bumper. The text is also cheaply animated and you can clearly see a white border in the "FANTASIA" word.

Music/Sounds: A growing fanfare on the 1st half, followed by a synthesized bass theme a bit before the 2nd half comes in.

Availability: Seen on 1980's tapes in Argentina including a 1987 edited VHS of La clinica del doctor Cureta.

Scare Factor: Low. It's just another cheesy logo.
