Pacific Data Images 1985 Demo Reel - from 1-inch tape

[@ThomasGorgolione]

This video probably has the best, cleanest, versions of all of the early tv computer animations that I have seen in all of KZbin!

[@craigfoye6674]

2:27 This “NBC Monday Night at the Movies” intro from 1985 reminds me of my early childhood!!

[@bmasters1981]

And the 720p has it really shining through, exactly as it was in '85!

[@bastiensante1902]

I think i've never seen such high quality VHS tapes, incredible !

[@TotallyLincoln-u1x]

Way before DreamWorks Animation acquired Pacific Data Images several years later. DreamWorks Animation is currently a division of NBCUniversal whose companies include NBC and Universal Studios.

[@marcoaurelio4903]

That was the era that everyone wants to have rede globo graphics, like hans donner did in 83.

[@carlosuriel6757]

PDI please come back

[@ChristopherSobieniak]

Yes, we won't tease you anymore for those "flying logos".

[@SkullboyMus1c]

well i mean, they're just dreamworks now

[@andropovbr]

I Remember watching The Fantástico opening when I was a Child. Thanks for the memories.

[@ThomasGorgolione]

Also also, super clean Joust video game promo at 2:56!

[@jimscott2050]

That's really good. At this time, PDI transitioned from a DEC VAX 11/780 minicomputer to a Ridge32 supercomputer.

[@BenKirb]

Right, Jim.

the 5:15 one is a brazilian logo of a tv show called fantastic / fantástico and it was broadcasted only on sunday, it would show a lot of news and funny horsies talking in portuguese about brazilian football teams.

[@peepinthenostalgiaofthebrazil]

Yep my mom and dad watching this program every sunday night later coming to the sleep!

[@TVsFenwick]

outstanding! thank you for uploading these

[@THK2012]

5:07 Dang This Was SO COOL!!!

[@ScoopNemeth]

I definitely saw KUSA in Denver, and this was back when Channel 9 was an ABC affiliate.

[@VPR2B]

The KUSA logo treatment is one the best as far as I’m concerned. 👍

[@keth9016]

That will be from 6:14 to 6:20.

[@keth9016]

That is the first station ID when its callsign changed in March 19, 1984 from KBTV to KUSA (-TV). And on September 10, 1995, KUSA changed affiliations from ABC to NBC.

[@JHollowayNetwork]

Impressive!, now I wonder if you have a 3 Ring Circus (3RC) demo reel from 1997 and 1998?

[@VPR2B]

I do not have that one, but I do have one from Image West that I am working on right now ...

[@JHollowayNetwork]

@@BenKirb I have a 3RC Demo Reel Tape from 1996 that was given to me by Curt Doty, I saved it on a flash drive.

[@VPR2B]

@@BenKirb I’ll have to look. I may have another PDI reel, but from a 3/4-inch source, which is not great.

[@BenKirb]

@@JHollowayNetwork Wow! Can you upload it?

[@JHollowayNetwork]

@@BenKirb I can't without Curt Doty's permission, but I can send you a MEGA Link.

[@BluestarTBA]

Finally in hq

[@VPR2B]

Glad you approve! Sadly, I had to cut out the Monday Night Football open as the video would have otherwise been blocked due to a copyright claim.

They did the movie bumpers for WOR 9 in New York AND the Forty Years of Fine Tuning graphics for WNEW in New York! So awesome to see where they came from!

[@aink9106]

4:24 mtv id unused

[@gatrodgers]

Thanks a million for sharing that reel with us, especially the NBC Movies intro. The quality's amazing.

[@AlexClarke619]

Would you like to see the 1980 Image West demo reel with the 1980s TBN Praise the Lord intro featuring the 80’s TBN logo

[@BluestarTBA]

I don't think Image West made bumpers for Trinity Brodcasting Network, well prove it by looking at Image West's demo reels

5:15 Fantástico, programa de jornalismo e variedades da TV Globo, exibido desde agosto de 1973,cuja vinheta desse vídeo foi exibida entre 18 de Setembro de 1983 à 2 de Agosto de 1987.
