1st Logo (1982-1988)


Visuals: Over a black background, the logo starts with "AV" in a modified Motter Ombra font, made out of gold with some light sparks, zooming in from the near-top towards the viewer until it reaches at a comfortable distance. There are 9 blue-gray 4-pointed stars shooting and shining in the following order:

  • The first one shoots at the bottom-left corner.
  • The second one shoots at the near-bottom-right and disappears.
  • The third and fourth stars shine on the bottom of the "V" and in the gap of the "A", respectively.
  • The fifth star shoots at the bottom-right.
  • The sixth and seventh stars shine on the bottom of the "A" and on the bottom gap between "A" and "V", respectively.
  • The eighth star shines on the bottom gap between "A" and "V", again like the seventh star did, except it moves to the near-bottom-left, when it disappears, and reappears, making "AUDIO VISUAL ENTERPRISES" (in Korinna) appear below the "AV".
  • The ninth and the last star shines on the last letter of the company name ("S").
