UAV (United American Video) Logo (1991?)

[Logoboy1000]

I rented Big Trucks, Tractors and Trains from 1999.

[1happycats]

Where are the 1989 and 1996 logos?

[stinkydo0d]

I was never scared of this. I always loved this one.

[asw9243]

Useless.

[logolover24]

I remember this from an old Casper tape a friend of mine used to have.

[theGMANtheBOSS]

I remember this logo! I had tapes from the company!

Funny, it never scared me as a child.

[PolzerProduction]

I remember this logo was on a very old Dinosaur Stopmotion Short, that I loved as a little kid!

[MattTheSaiyan]

A simple but rather effective logo.

[singinglawnchair]

I remember this from an old Elmer Fudd tape I had when I was a kid.

[FSXTheGreat]

This come from the start of the Best of the Lone Ranger VHS collection. Because, both VHS tapes are distributed by UAV Corporation, and have the 1991 logo.

[unclesporkums]

I have this on "Little Women's Christmas Story"

[timwilliamsart]

I illustrated over 75 video covers for them in the 90's. They kind of sucked as a company.

[Brillemeister]

Well dang. How so?

[timwilliamsart]

They paid pretty poorly and a couple of the art directors they had were borderline psychotic.

[cglodzik]

lol I used to work for them

[Brillemeister]

Sorry for the loss :(

[SonicTheJackrabbit]

Sounds like a 8-bit/16-bit synthesized ocean wave. :D

[Miketheyoutubization]

Brillemeister, please upload Sandbox Playtime Videos: Big Firetrucks, Ambulances, and Rescue Helicopters.

[dconflict]

Does anyone know what happened to this company?

[coppermop]

enemy uav is airborn?

[Johnnybronze]

i ran the text in the description through Yahoo's babel fish to turn it into engrish. what i got was: From a video recording Issuing company's quite ordinary opening business nominal U V company, outside fortress mill, SC. How is the notice animation the dispatch in reply and prompts me to listen carefully nearly the world vision to withstand gigantically tinkle very fast moves. I video recording's start have discovered this in Andy the Griffis.

[Brillemeister]

Sheer poetry. <3

[Vechi34]

creepy

[Ian16545]

There's another UAV logo (with the same jingle) I remember from a tape I once had of the Japanese-American import "Tales of Magic": It began with this starfield, showing an "adjust VCR tracking for best picture" disclaimer for a few seconds, then had a U.S. flag flying off into the screen, followed by a glinting star. In flew red and blue UAV letters in a 70's-type font, ending with a white star tumbling in and landing itself on the "A", then the whole logo was outlined with white.

[CartoonCookie93]

I remember that one aswell.

[Ian16545]

Speaking of which, does anybody have that logo, by chance?

[Logoboy1000]

@OldAndRetroStuff You have what uploaded on your channel?

[whattheheck1000]

It's on YouTube, it's the 1989 logo. Search for UAV 1989.

[TheUPBNSF]

I have a VHS of "the three stooges" with this logo in it, the VHS contains 4 comedy shorts, three with shemp in them, and one with curly in it.

[MattCordellIsBack]

I imagine the one with Curly is Disorder in the Court, since I think that's the only one with Curly that's in the public domain. The ones with Shemp might be Brideless Groom.

[TheUPBNSF]

that's right

[StarBoy62]

I remember this on some of my cartoon tapes! :)

[cyndie26]

The first half should be played at the beginning of TV shows and the second half should be played at the end of them.

[SOADafi]

scary, but i still think the 80s RKO is scarier

[cyndie26]

When the sound sounded like a jetplane landing, the logo actually did what it did when it sounded like a jetplane taking off, except it was backwards, so the logo is a palendrome (I hope I spelled it right).

[cyndie26]

First the WHOOSH! Then it sounds like a jetplane landing.

[ymbproductions]

This is a palindromic logo!

[MysticArksRevenge]

How did they go out of business?

[MysticArksRevenge]

I do like the company, except the only problem is they use public domain cartoons, which means the cartoons have moderate to severe film scratches.

[CartoonCookie93]

Actually, MysticArksRevenge, I recall seeing a few rare prints of Famous Studios cartoons.

One had the complete opening.

[CartoonCookie93]

do you have any cartoon tapes from this label?

[vfreeck]

R.I.P. UAV.

[PsychoticStarNG]

I actually remember seeing this logo on an old Casper video

[ParamountCartoons93]

I had a few PD tapes(mostly Paramount Pictures' scren songs), on VHS.

[doofynz]

funny they went bankrupt a couple of months ago

[gnome4planet]

this used to scare the piss out of me

[Sammyt3hSnake]

I just watched this one in the dark today... on a big screen tv... close up... scary...

Is the UAV logo a boat?

[StewieAndRupert]

That's actually quite scary, just how slow it is. Reminds me of hurtling through space.

[roygerdodger]

I think I must've seen a lot of tapes with this logo!

[Sammyt3hSnake]

So have I!

[Sammyt3hSnake]

Oh gosh, I remember this one... UAV had one weirdace logo... scary... so scary that they don't need weird or overly happy music to make it scarier...
