BMG Television

Logo (1997-2000)

Visuals: On a navy blue/sky blue gradient background, a red triangle with silver edges comes spinning to the middle of the screen from the top left. Then, the text "BMG" in its corporate font, and a red line fly in underneath the triangle, forming the BMG logo. A shiny silver background flips in behind the logo, and after that, the text "TELEVISION", in spaced-out black letters, flips in underneath one at a time. The logo shines.

Trivia: This is basically the same as the 1997 BMG Video logo, but it's in warp-speed and the text "TELEVISION" appears below instead. The music is also shortened.

Variant: The logo was in-credit in Salty's Lighthouse.

Technique: CGI by Flip Your Lid Animation.

Audio: A synth brass theme combined with a brief THX-like whirr, ending in 3 synth-piano notes.

Availability: Only known to have been seen on a 2000 TNN airing of Manilow Country and Salty's Lighthouse.
