1st Logo (2001-December 31, 2006)

Logo: On a moving blue background, we see a bright light on the top left corner of the screen, which disappears quickly to show the 1994-2008 Bell logo spinning slowly. When the logo is done spinning to the center-left of the screen, the words "Bell Globemedia" blur in quickly.

Variants:

There's a short version of this logo.
On a TSN Sportscentre airing, a very short version of this logo is used.

FX/SFX: CGI animation.

Music/Sounds: Same as the 1998 CTV Productions theme, with some whooshes.

Availability: Extinct. This was seen on various programming from Bell Globemedia, such as CTV News, Canada AM, and Good Morning Canada.
