OctoArts (1980s?-Late 1990s)


Nickname: "Flying LaserDisc", "Overlapping Circle/Filmstrip"

Logo: On a blue background, we see a red circle and a LaserDisc/DVD flying toward each other from the top and bottom, respectively.
The circles then shift right, in slanted motion, and then would straighten out. As it shifts, the red circle overlaps the white circle, and "OctoArts" flies out of it to the right. Then a filmstrip appears around the circle (the logo looking like a backwards 6), and a line under "OctoArts" is drawn, then "FILMS" appears under the line. The filmstrip then shines with a ping, and four lines are drawn on the circle, then flash.

FX/SFX/Cheesy Factor: The animation in the logo.

Music/Sounds: A horn fanfare ending in an uplifting note, with some laser zaps sounding as the logo is formed.

Music/Sound Variant
: At least one movie used a fanfare carried out by 11 notes with a chord crescending throughout. That music altogether is played over the Cinemax Studios and M-ZET logos.

Availability: Rare; seen on the 1997 Filipino movie Selosa.

Scare Factor: Minimal.

2nd Logo
(2000s- )
OctoArts (1990's- )
Nickname: "Filmreel/Filmstrip"

Logo: We see a filmreel spinning fast, then it slows down as we zoom to a black BG, and a filmstrip appears next to the filmreel. The filmreel then turns into a red circle with lines, forming the OctoArts logo similar to the 1st one. Underneath, "
OctoArts", in red, appears, then "F I L M S", in white, unfolds underneath letter-by-letter.

FX/SFX: The filmreel, the appearance of the company name, the appearance of "FILMS".

Music/Sounds: A dark synth tune that carries over to the M-ZET logo coming after it.

Availability: Was seen on a Filipino film called Enteng Kabisote 3.

Scare Factor: Low.
