1st Logo (April 2011-2014)

Bell Media (2012)

Logo: We see a close-up view on a big blue "B" letter, standing on a surface. Then we move right and the name zooms out, reading "Bell Media". It also seems to cast a vague reflection on the floor.

FX/SFX: The animation of the zooming name.

Music/Sounds: An engine-like premise followed by three waterdrop ding sounds, which is the same as the CTVglobemedia logo.

Availability: Common. Replaces the CTV logo on The Listener starting from mid-season two, on Flashpoint, The Sanctuary and newer episodes of Degrassi (TeenNick airings don't have that logo). Also appears on The L.A. Complex and the best picture award-winning nominated short minifilm Lay Them Straight.

Editor's Note: None.
