(5 January 1984-6 February 1986)


Visuals: On a black background, we see something zooming out and rotating. The thing rotating is a map of Europe, and the background is now blue. After it rotates to a 360 degree angle, it then stops. After about 2 seconds, a yellow circle trail comes in, and it then forms itself to reveal a letter "C" in the Broadway font. 2 more of these circle trails come in as well, with one forming in the centre, carrying the letter "D", and the last one forms on the right, this time with the letter "E" inside. When the acronym circles are formed, we then see the text "COMPAGNIA DISTRIBUZIONE EUROPEA S.p.A" typing itself in on the right hand side.

Technique: 2D animation.

Audio: A deep synth, accompanied with drones and high-pitched notes syncing to the shooting and typing.

Availability: Seen on films such as Tutti Dentro (1984) and Speriamo che sia femmina (1986). It also may have appeared on Italian release prints of the foreign films that they distributed, such as The Terminator (Terminator), The Dead Zone (La zona morta), The Woman In Red (La signora in rosso) and Lone Wolf McQuade (Una magnum per McQuade) among others.
