RocVale Film (Australia)

Background : RocVale Film is an Australian video distributor. It was formed in 1989, and went defunct in the early 2000s.

1st Logo (1990-1994)

Logo : On a black background, we see the outline of the words "RV" in a abstract, connected, stylized and futuristic font, in a blue-white gradient color, along with a outline of a black spark at the end of the "V". The spark shines with a blue light and disappears, and we see the words " R  OC  V  ALE FILM" fading in below in a white-blue gradient color.

 Variant : Sometimes, before the logo, the text reads "The Movie is Proudly Distributed By" appears before the logo.

FX/SFX : The light shining, the text fading in.

Music/Sounds : A 5-note synth choir theme, with the last note being longer, and drumbeats are heard at the end.

Availability : Seen on earlier RocVale Film releases from the 1990s.

 Editor's Note : None.

2nd Logo (1994-2001)

 Logo : On a space background, we see the Earth globe rotating. Then a curvy filmstrip wipes in, with the movie countdown and a rotating CD disc on the sides. Then it wipes out, and we see the same filmstrip again, this time on the Australian continent. Then it wipes again, then it continues rotating. The camera then zooms out and then the space background disappears. The words " R  OC  V  ALE FILM" appears letter by letter, in silver, with the Earth globe being the "O". Then, we see the "RV" from before, this time in silver with a blue outline. The outline shines, and a spark appears at the end of the "V".

 Opening Variant : The logo fades out, to make room for a golden man walking up holding the red 3D words "PRESENTS" sliding up. The golden man disappears, and we see the "RV" logo in the reflection.

FX/SFX : CGI animation.

Music/Sounds : Whooshing noises and a synth drone, followed by a 10-note synth brass theme when the text appears with the last note holding out longer, and a "ding" noise appears when the "V" sparks. For the opening variant, after the logo theme appears, a catchy theme with a whoosh when the golden man walks followed by the choir note at the end.

Availability : Seen on RocVale Film releases in the 1990s and early 2000s.

 Editor's Note : None.
