Vicodore Productions

Background
Vicodore Productions was a production company operated by Linda Dunn, Penelope Charest and Ruth Dodd in 1988. Ana Rascunho would join the company soon after. The name of the company was a mix between those of the VIC-20 and Commodore 64; Dunn was an avid collector of home computers. In 2002, the company was sued by Bonneville Worldwide, the broadcasting division of the Jesus Christ Church of Later Day Saints over misappropriation of Bonneville's funds; Vicodore had received financing from the church but had put the money toward films well against the church's beliefs. Boneville won in the suit and Vicodore filed for bankruptcy the following year.

1st Logo (1989-2000)
Logo: We fade in to a space background where a comet flies by. When it reaches the other side of the screen, particles drop down and become like a crashing wave. A background containing black and white squares in a cross pattern fades in while the comet becomes a solid line. "Vicodore" and "productions" appear above and below the line respectively.

FX/SFX: The line and background.

Music/Sounds: A mystical fanfare, along with the sound of waves crashing.

Availability: Seen on Termites, A Strange Illness, the two D.O.A.D. movies and the 1995 remake of The Beast of Yucca Flats.

2nd Logo (1997)
Logo: We pan across the planet earth, as the shadowy letters "D, C, R and D" fly in. A flash occurs and we see the letter above the text "VICODORE PRODUCTIONS"

FX/SFX: The letters.

Music/Sounds: A new age theme with soprano vocals.

Availability: Seen on She-Hulk.

3rd Logo (2001)
Logo: Against an empty city street at night, we see a firetruck drive by. The camera pans to a woman facing away from the viewer. The woman faces the viewer, and we see she is on fire. The camera zooms into her proper right eye as the text "VICODORE" zooms back.

FX/SFX: 3D animation.

Music/Sounds: A somber theme.
