1st (known) Logo
(Late 1980s-Early 1990s)
Egmont Film Video (Scandinavia) - CLG Wiki
Logo: On a gray background, a giant black circle zooms out to the center, with a blue light passing over it to reveal a gray colored map of the Scandinavian countries (minus Iceland) with latitude and longitude lines, with a shadow underneath. The globe keeps sparkling until the sparks fly out to form the Egmont logo (consisting of the word "EGMONT" in a very '80s Macy's-esque font, with the "E" and "T" connected via a line made to look like a square) via a yellow flash, and then, a pink comet shoots along the bottom to reveal "AUDIO-VISUAL-GROUP". Finally, the Scandinavian map transforms into the word "Film" in a cursive font and colored black, transforming the gray background into light pink. Then the logo just stays on screen for another five seconds, and we fade out.

FX: All the animation in the logo, which isn't too bad, despite a few bad effects...

Cheesy Factor: ...such as the sparkles, and the gray-to-pink background, which are very 1980s.

Music/Sounds: An upbeat synth-disco tune with a "whoosh" at the beginning.

Availability: On old PAL tapes throughout Scandinavia. One example might be a Swedish tape of Bamse (a popular Swedish cartoon) or a Norwegian tape of Sesam Stasjon (Norway's co-production of Sesame Street, literally meaning "Sesame Station"), possibly with NRK's logo (and the CTW "Sparks" logo) coming after.

Scare Factor: Low.

2nd Logo
(Early 1990s-2000s)

Egmont Entertainment (Early 90's-2000's)
Nickname: "Face in Space"

Logo: Against a blue space BG, a yellow square, a spinning blue circle (with part of it broken open), and a green L zoom out, and at the same time, a red square and blue dot zoom in, forming a face at the left of the screen. The face fades out a bit, and some copyright warning text scrolls up a la BFS Video. The face fades back in, and the text "EGMONT" and "ENTERTAINMENT AB" (in white) zoom out to the bottom from both sides of the screen. The left eye of the face (the red circle) winks.

FX: The zooming.

Music/Sounds: A techno tune with some "whooshing" sounds.

Availability: Easier to find, seeing as it's more recent.

Scare Factor: Low.
