== Background ==
2V Media (2B Media) (2B Медиа) began as a subsidiary of the Video International advertising agency that produced shows for the RTR (currently Russia-1) and NTV networks. In 1997, the "Video International" Production Center (''Продюсерский центр "Видео Интернешнл"'') was formed as a production company and as a part of the Video International group. Later, it was merged with Keosayan brothers' Gold Vision in May 2000 to form Studio 2V (Studio 2B) (Студия 2В) (name derived from "'''V'''ideo International" and "Gold '''V'''ision") and was no longer tied to the Video International advertising agency (which would close down in 2016) after that. In 2023, in order to start shifting from television to digital media, the company changed its name to 2V Media.


===Background===
==Video International==
'''Studio 2V''' ('''Studio 2B'''/'''Студия 2В''') was formed in May 2000 from a merger between the [[Video International (Russia)|"'''V'''ideo International" Production Center]] (Продюсерский центр "Видео Интернешнл") and the Keosayan brothers' Gold '''V'''ision. The resulting unit was no longer tied to the Video International advertising agency, which would close down in 2016. In 2023, in order to start shifting from television to digital media, the company changed its name to '''2V Media''' ('''2B Media'''/'''2B Медиа''').

'''Logo:''' On a grainy gray gradient background, six parts of an Earth globe, two pairs of them colored red, green, and blue, meet in the center of the screen and spin around. Then, a tubular silver N appears behind the globe and rotates toward us clockwise. It is later revealed to be a conjoined "VI". The map on the globe slowly dissolves away.

'''Variant:''' There is a short version that starts with the "VI" rotating.

'''Technique:''' CGI.

'''Music/Sounds:''' A THX "Deep Note"-like synth is heard as the pieces of the globe come together, followed by a dramatic synth fanfare. An announcer says "the Video International company presents..." in Russian ("Компания "Видео Интернешнл" представляет...").

'''Availability:''' Extinct on TV; was seen only in Russia at the beginning of certain VI-produced shows.

'''Logo:''' We zoom out from a bridge at dusk. Several lights on the bridge begin to light up as "продюсерский центр" (production center), in silver, appears above it in an arc, along with "ВИДЕО ИНТЕРНЕШНЛ" (VIDEO INTERNATIONAL) written below in bronze. The sky darkens a bit. We then fade out as "представляет" ("presents") fades in.

'''Technique:''' CGI.

'''Music/Sounds:''' A magical-sounding synth fanfare with a synth choir. Some twinkling sounds are heard as the lights light up.

'''Availability:''' Once again, this could be found in Russia on Video International-produced shows, but these episodes are long out of air. The logo can be found on some VHS releases distributed that time.

Background

Studio 2V (Studio 2B/Студия 2В) was formed in May 2000 from a merger between the "Video International" Production Center (Продюсерский центр "Видео Интернешнл") and the Keosayan brothers' Gold Vision. The resulting unit was no longer tied to the Video International advertising agency, which would close down in 2016. In 2023, in order to start shifting from television to digital media, the company changed its name to 2V Media (2B Media/2B Медиа).

1st Logo (August 19, 2000-January 22, 2011)


Visuals: Against a blue/golden sky background with dark clouds and spotlights, a teal-colored square with some pixels in the bottom-right hand corner and sprocket holes on the top-right hand corner, resembling a filmstrip, flip into place from the left, followed by a silver teal-outlined "2B". The text "CTYDИЯ" in OCR A Extended font zooms out from the right below "2B". The square quickly loses the sprocket holes and splits into several small squares which fly away, and "2B" rapidly zooms into the screen, causing the "CTYDИЯ" text to disappear and leaving the sky background. The logo then fades out, and the word "представляет" in the same font as the 1998 VI logo fades in.

Technique: CGI animation.

Audio: The music from the 1998 Video International logo.

Availability: Can only be found on recorded Russian shows, with the most particular one being Своя Игра. Although it was officially retired in 2010, this logo continued to appear on Диалоги о животных until January 22, 2011.

2nd Logo (September 19, 2010-March 11, 2023)


Visuals: Many sky blue light streaks form the logo over a dark blue foggy space background. "2B" appears in light, surrounded by computerized/sci-fi circles, which immediately vanish as the same transparent rectangle is drawn. Another set of light streaks appears and creates the words "СТYДИЯ" in the same font from before below the filmstrip. Then "ПРЕДСТАВЛЯЕТ" in black spaced-out letters reveals itself, evened below over the light. The background continues to flow.

Technique: CGI animation.

Audio: A new crystallized theme starting with a synth pad chords with a synth gurgle (the sound has been reused in "Sunslammer" by Seth Peelle from Homestuck Vol. 5) and seguing to the three fading dings.

Availability: Seen on episodes of Своя Игра (until January 15, 2023), Сто к одному (the Russian version of Family Feud), and a video showcasing show Сам себя режиссёр from the time.

Logo (January 21, 2023-)

The screen then cuts to the another shot to reveal the glowing word "MEDIA" over the floor as the rectangle fills the floor to reveal "2V" in full.
