Zane Entertainment Group
From Audiovisual Identity Database
(Late 1980s-Mid 1990s)
Logo: On a black background, two red bolts of lightning collide in the center, forming a large yellow "Z" in a stencil font, which shines as white lights draw a box around it. The stacked chrome text "ZANE ENTERTAINMENT GROUP" appears below the boxed "Z", and the logo shines for a while.
Variants:
- There is a version with the gold text "FEATURE PRESENTATION" crudely chryoned in at the bottom of the company name.
- A blue version exists with more animation.
- A prototype version also exists, ending the logo differently.
Technique: 2D computer animation.
Music/Sounds: A loud thunderclap sound effect (taken from the BBC/Cinesound sound library) edited in with the flash, using a synth-rock fanfare.
Availability: Quite rare. It can possibly be seen on porn tapes from the time.
