Initial Home Video (France)

1st Logo

(1980's)

Nicknames: "Lisberger of France", "TRON in France", "Lisberger Studios Rip-Off", "The French Cousin of Enterprise Producciones", "Two Logos In One: French Version", "Neon Radio Ad in France"

Logo: Same as the Lisberger Studios logo, but, after TRON crashes the discs of light, the logo cuts to the dark gray background; then the words "INITIAL HOME VIDEO Présente" in white with red shadows under the words fade in and the background turns white.

FX/SFX: The Lisberger Studios logo animating and the fading text.

Cheesy Factor: This logo is just as blatant as the Enterprise Producciones logo. Like that logo, they stole the animation and the music from a different logo! In reality, the Lisberger animation was actually used before for some other radio ads, so it may be mysterious if the company had asked for permission to use the animation, or maybe had Lisberger Studios sue them afterwards of this logo's creation.

Music/Sounds: Same as the Lisberger Studios logo, but higher-pitched due to it being in SECAM format.

Availability: Rare.

Scare Factor: Medium to high. You may be scared of the theft of the Lisberger Studios logo's animation or music, or laugh uncontrollably at it.
