Logo (Early-Mid 1980s?)

Visuals: On a zooming space background, the logo of the company slides above, slowly zooming out and stands still in the middle. It consists of a red abstract continous "V" with blue and green rounded shapes from the "V" seen from below, alongside an upside-down copy of it seen from above, with "VIDEOVILLAGE" over the middle.

Variant: A closing version was used where the logo's movements is slightly shifted upper, to make room for the fading text:

KPS Video Network
P.O. Box 11145. Hong Kong
© (date of release)

The whole logo stands still over a few seconds.

Technique: Camera-controlled animation.

Audio: A triumphant fanfare, which is "Fanfare #2" by Neil Richardson.

Availability: Not much is known about this company, as it only made a few releases. It appears on House of the Lute, The Woman Avenger and Born Invincible (later distributed by Laboratorios RAK in Spain).
