Viacom Logos from My 16mm Films (Part 2; 05/2019) | 16mm

It's been one year since the last video like this, so here's another one.

[@TheVintageTVArchive]

The logos come from the following shows: •0:00-0:05: "The Dick Van Dyke Show" •0:05-0:28: "The Phil Silvers Show" •0:28-0:34: "Petticoat Junction" •0:34-0:39: "The Wild Wild West" •0:39-0:45: "The Phil Silvers Show" •0:45-0:54: "The Beverly Hillbillies" •0:54-1:00: "I Love Lucy" •1:00-1:17: "Marshal Dillon" •1:17-2:23: "I Love Lucy" •2:23-2:38: "The Phil Silvers Show" •2:38-2:45: "The Twilight Zone" •2:45-2:51: "Fun in Acapulco" •2:51-2:59: "Gomer Pyle - USMC" •2:59-3:06: "Gunsmoke" •3:06-3:13: "Hogan's Heroes" •3:13-3:20: "The Mary Tyler Moore Show" •3:20-3:26: "Hawaii Five-0" •3:26-3:43: "Gunsmoke"

[@TrickyMario7654]

Um, what about the Viacom logos that you found on separate film strips?

[@TheVintageTVArchive]

I honestly can’t remember where I put those filmstrips. Even if I knew, I just never thought about putting those in any compilation.

[@TrickyMario7654]

@@TheVintageTVArchive Oh, okay.

[@andyrose5616]

On the open matte versions, you can see a moving line at the top of the screen for a couple of frames after the V first appears. I'll bet it was the edge of the cel that had the V on it. They must have animated the "zoom" of the V by changing the depth of the animation stand. That edge wouldn't appear on TV since it's outside the safe area, so they didn't worry about it.

[@TheVintageTVArchive]

At the 3:20 mark, when Viacom slightly tweaked the design of their logo, that line at the top was eliminated completely, so they did something different in terms of animating the logo itself.

[@ZakWolf]

Interesting; I thought maybe it was the edge of the chromakey screen the "V" was placed on and the camera zoomed up to.

[@brandonthemainstreetelectr1204]

@@TheVintageTVArchive that's the variant where the v keeps zooming until it cuts to black while the other shows v stop zooming closer to the screen before it cuts to black

[@brianhebert6152]

It's especially noticeable at 0:41 and 1:26

[@ZakWolf]

It looks like there were two different takes on the filmed "V of Doom" logo. Starting at 3:20, the starting position of the "V" is a bit different, and you don't see the edge of the greenscreen on top when it starts zooming, and it doesn't show the "V" stopping right before cutting to black.

[@wigwagstudios2474]

not only that, but the zooming of the V seems more linear compared to others where it feels more exponential.

[@teresapflaumer5717]

2:46. This is from a badly damaged Elvis film reel. The video is on this KZbin channel.

[@albireo2990]

Wrong. Apparently, the audio wave on the tape was just a flat line, meaning silent. It was printed this way.

[@Mochrie99]

That really dark V of Doom is particularly unnerving, it's almost invisible due to how dark the print is.

[@Mochrie99]

Another thing that amazes me is that nearly every single filmed version of the V of Doom I've seen (on KZbin at least) looks pretty scratched to hell. Not a single pristine print to be found anywhere. That's why I find this logo so creepy, the fact that they are almost always imperfect prints.

[@Luke2505TV]

@@Mochrie99 some VHS/colour TV prints of the V of Doom arent too bad. But I think most are scratched as they were mistreated by Viacom

[@grkb]

@@Luke2505TV viacom's storage was possibly very terrible.

[@Luke2505TV]

@@grkb True, maybe it's just a natural thing by long times in storage, collecting dust.

[@Andymainhk]

@@Mochrie99 About perfect prints I can't found it However，I think this print is almost perfect，although last part of video get one damage. kzbin.info/www/bejne/aYuuaIGfrKppfJY

[@scottmcintyre4950]

Is there something wrong with me that not only did I sit through this 5 times, but each time I was filled with such strong nostalgia, I got teary eyed?

[@AldenIsCaca]

HOW OLD ARE YOU? 69???

I get it... It was such a simpler time in life.

[@wigwagstudios2474]

2:47 sounds like a flag waving

[@jadsi]

It does!

[@albireo2990]

sounds like distorted marching to me

[@leejoe86686]

IT DOES, HOLY SH*T!

[@Flamingbro69]

2:47 Welp, someone in the comments will probably say that’s a RARE variant, when it’s just damaged deteriorating audio Edit: I know It’s just static, but I could see someone thinking it was a variant

[@VectraQS]

Actually, that is silent. On the original posting of that particular logo, I asked him if there was any printed audio. He said there was only a straight line -- meaning completely silent. So that isn't deteriorated/damaged audio, that is how it was printed.

[@teresapflaumer5717]

2:34 2:35 The bottom of the V suddenly had a horizontal split right through it. Looks like the V cracked as it reached the front of the screen, and a knife ripped right through it Looks freaky!

[@VectraQS]

Film splice. Pretty standard procedure. Now, I'm not sure why they do it in the picture area.

[@Luke2505TV]

Been looking forward to this!

[@Luke2505TV]

drive.google.com/file/d/1wcm7YUzuwHLV6NHIBQYQRrbFPCkAmn3d/view?usp=drivesdk what happened here

[@TheVintageTVArchive]

It’s a bad splice. Apparently the logo’s filmstrip ripped, and someone lazily taped it back together.

[@BobMarge1981]

What happened with the standalone Viacom logos, especially the "Pinball" with the white background (prototype?)?

[@VectraQS]

3:20 Is that the color low-toned version? I recall you were missing that a few years ago.

[@TheVintageTVArchive]

It is. I think I have two copies of it now, one on Kodak SP and one on LPP, both from "Hawaii Five-0".

[@yesandmariosonicloveos2024]

2:30 splice at the end 🔚

[@Andymainhk]

I wonder why not have viacom v of steel from 16mm?

[@MrVCidade]

Because that logo you mentioned (V Of Steel) was from the time when Viacom was distributing shows in Betacam or in Umatic, or in one-inch type C tape.

[@Andymainhk]

@@MrVCidade First of all thnak you of reply However, when this logo shoot and making is use 35mm film or else？

[@MrVCidade]

@@Andymainhk Yes. They shot that logo on 35mm.

[@Andymainhk]

@@MrVCidade Thank you! Your reply solve my wonder :-D

[@Hi-ix5bb]

@@Andymainhk also, 35mm is capable of 4K so we have a obvious winner vs magnetic tape

[@grkb]

it's very weird that the films are very low quality and are decaying. where do your films come from?

[@Luke2505TV]

It's natural for these films to decay over time. It's not mistreatment by TVTA or poor transferring, but natural decay of these films from stuff like long periods in storage, mistreatment/binning from stations that once used these prints, etc

[@MediaGuy-2005]

At 2:35, I can tell that's film splice

2:47 yo why the audio is muted or not working

[@albireo2990]

there was simply no audio for that one. The audio wave on the tape was a flat line on the V of Doom segment, so apparently there wasn’t meant to be audio at the end or something.
