All Maximum Group

All Maximum Group was an animation studio formed in 1989 by Duravid, Inc. (in 1991 re-named to FTA Corporation) to distribute animated educational films and also Maximum Video fitness programming on TV, sometimes recorded on VHS. In 1991, with Duravid, Inc., their original financiator, being transformed into FTA Corporation, All Maximum Group started to file for bankruptcy as their only remaining helpful asset was Maximum Video. However, with Maximum Video starting their Maximum Fitness series by October 16, 1991, All Maximum Group closed for bankruptcy and its assets were acquired by the newly-born FTA Corporation.

1st Logo (September 15, 1989-1991)
Nicknames: "All Maximum Triangle" "Maximum Video-Like Logo"

After the credits end, everything fades to a black background. A triangle colored blue and yellow flies from the bottom of the screen and places in the top. Underneath, "AN ALL MAXIMUM PRESENTATION" fades in, as the triangle turns upside-down.

FX/SFX/Cheesy Factor: Cheap animation, but it's typical for a low-budget studio controlled by Duravid, Inc. and for 1989.

Music/Sounds: A synth humming and a drone, complete with a cymbal crash as the text fades in. Then, a sweeping synth.

Availability: Extinct. First known to appear, but probably not, on a VHS of the first episode of Do Good, Mark!. It also appeared on the full season 1 of Do Good, Mark! and on two educational shorts: Lunchroom Manners: Be Good and How To Talk To Everyone, followed by the Duravid, Inc. logo from 1989-1991. Season 2 episodes of Do Good, Mark! don't have it, instead they replace it with the Maximum Video 1989-1996 logo or the Starswift 1989-1997 logo.

2nd Logo (1991)
Nicknames: "All Maximum Triangle II" "The Last Of All Maximum" "FTA Corporation-Like Logo"

Over a black background, several stripes slide from left and right of the screen, coloring the background with a red-gradient color, identical to the one in the 1991-1996 FTA Corporation logo. As this happens, the golden-like text "ALL MAXIMUM", in a font similar to the one in the previous logo, fade in. Underneath, "PRESENTS" in a white Kabel font slides from the left. The triangle from before fades behind "ALL MAXIMUM".

FX/SFX/Cheesy Factor: All better, kind of early 80s-like CGI, but still cheap for the time. This due to All Maximum falling into bankruptcy at the time of FTA Corporation.

Music/Sounds: The end theme of the show (only the very last half), which then segues into a Worldwide Media-like humming synth sound.

Availability: Extinct. This was seen during the FTA era. Can be seen on Lunchroom Manners II as educational short. Also, can be seen whenever the first half of the season 2 of Do Good, Mark! is reran, but this is unlikely. Last seen on the 24th episode of season 2 of Do Good, Mark!, which is saved on ultra rare VHS tapes like the first and second seasons of the show.
