Logo: We see a revolving grayish-darkblue globe up close at an angle, with black land masses that have white outlines. Zooming in are the words "WESTCON HOME VIDEO" in a metallic-blue color. The byline "A WESTCON COMPANY ©" fades in below. The map fades out.
FX/SFX: The revolving map and zooming letters. Early computer graphics.
Music/Sounds: A calm country tune performed on an electric piano with an announcer saying "The best in movie entertainment, brought to you by Westcon Home Video".
Availability: Seen on British and Swedish tapes from the '80s.
