Opening logo for an American home video distributor, from 1978. MEDA was the pre-cursor to the Media label that followed it in the early 1980s. These tapes are very rare now. Quality is limited because the tape is over 30 years old.
MEDA was distributed throughout Australia and New Zealand by a company called Video Classics, which was one of the first home video distributors in this part of the world. The logo was sourced from one of their releases and is PAL tweaked.
This was taken from The Day of the Triffids (1962). Other films distributed by this label in the late 1970s include:
* Reefer Madness (1936)
* Flesh Gordon (1974)
* Halloween (1978)
* The Groove Tube (1974)
etc, etc
All of these were later re-released by Media (and Video Classics of course).
