1st Logo (November 3, 1989-1993)	2nd Logo (1993-2003)	3rd Logo (2003-2007)

1st Logo (November 3, 1989-1993)

Visuals: The sequence starts with blue and white stripes (ala the Cuban flag) sliding into place. After some time, the screen fades to red and a white star in the center fades in. The logo fades to a top-down view of a 3D star-shaped building (José Martí Memorial). The camera pans up and then down through the building before zooming out to reveal a statue of José Martí, zooming out into a comfortable distance to reveal the whole building with the text in orange:

CUBA Visión

and a number 6 in orange red.

Technique: CGI.

Audio: A synth fanfare that becomes majestic after the initial four notes.

2nd Logo (1993-2003)

Ident
Signon ID
TVC logo variant (used at signoff)

Visuals: On a blue background, there is a sphere with two split lines at the bottom and a zig-zag shape on the top quarter. The line segments are light blue whilst the top part is green. The sphere rolls towards the camera before stopping, with the green bit facing the screen. The sphere slowly rotates upwards as "cubavisión" flies from the sphere, turning and zooming in. The sphere and text position themselves. Later a light blinks on the line above the o.

Variants:

On a bright cyan background, there is a closeup of the lighthouse of the Castillo del Morro in Havana, which then suddenly zooms out to reveal the entirety of the fortress. The camera then zooms out to reveal a green landscape, most likely the terrain of nearby Havana, and a gray broadcasting tower with multiple small satellites protruding out of it. A sphere with two split lines at the bottom and a green ziz-zag shape on the top quarter (the Cubavisión logo) spins and zooms in, then centering on the screen, in which it freezes for a second. The map of Havana in the background then zooms out and eventually reveals a map of the entirety of Cuba. While this is happening, outlined red, white and blue text reading "tvc" appears, turning and rotating to the left, while the sphere centered in the "C" spins in a 360 degree angle.
There is also a variant of the signon/signoff ident where instead of showing an animation of the 1994 "tvc" logo of Cubavisión, it instead shows the regular sphere ident.

Technique: CGI.

Audio: For the first (regular) variant, a Latin-flavored synth-pop fanfare. For the second (signon/signoff) variant, a tropical-sounding synth piece that ends with the former's mnemonic.

3rd Logo (2003-2007)

Visuals: On a blue tunnel that is on a black background, an outlined circle forms, as other outlined circles also coming together and making a re-rendered version of the sphere from the previous logo. "cubavisión" then slides in under the sphere.

Technique: CGI.

Audio: Same as the previous logo.

-'''Logo:''' On a grey background, a black CRT shape with lines on it, is shown with a grey circle saying "6" in the middle of it; and below, there is a text saying "Televisión Cubana" ("Cuban Television") and the TVC logo at the time in the right of it.

-'''Availability:''' Rare to extinct.
-'''Editor's Note:''' Even though colour TV was introduced in Cuba in December 1975, it was in [[Tele Rebelde (Cuba)|Tele Rebelde]] (Cubavisión's sister channel) to broadcast the First Congress of the Communist Party of Cuba; and Cubavisión still had most of it's progamming in B&W (except movies, foreign programmes and special events) until 1982-1984(?).

-'''Logo:''' On a background (which mostly were the channel's studios buildings, but could variate depending of the variant), the logo zooms in with a white rectangle border from the TV antenna.
-'''FX/SFX:''' Scanimate-like animation.
-'''Music/Sounds:''' A Cuban-sounding synth tune.
-'''Availability:''' Rare.

-'''Logo:''' On a blue background (probably clouds), a ball forms and zooms out, then a black background forms, and around the ball there's a TV camera shape, with the left side in red, the right side in blue, and the bottom part in white. The ball is replaced by a yellow 6, which later moves to the upper-rights and disappears, with a rotating image replacing it in the middle of the TV camera logo. Then a rotating logo (with the camera shape that appeared before, but with a white circle in the middle of it and both the 6 and the bottom part being black) appears and zooms out, then the backgrounds turns white-ish and the main logo changes colours to what mentioned in parentheses, with the 6 zooming up until being in its regular size.
-'''FX/SFX:''' Electronic/computer animation.
-'''Music/Sounds:''' TBA
-'''Availability:''' Rare to extinct.
-'''Editor's Note:''' As of now, the only known recordings of this logo are in bad quality and in B&W (unless for a 1986 one which has some colour fragments), probably due to bad DX reception and USA jamming Cuban TV signals. However, there's a reconstruction made by "Canal Cuatro de Televisión", with mixed fragments from the existing videos; and [https://youtu.be/MX-IGaSxFQA?t=355 a remake made by "No."], which was made from scratch. According to some YouTube comments and videos, this was used until either 1987 or July 1986, being a secondary logo.

-'''Logo:''' We start with blue and white stripes (a la the Cuban flag) sliding into place; as they finish, the screen fades to red and a white star in the center fades in. The logo fades to a top-down view of a star-shaped building. The camera pans up and then down through the building before zooming out to reveal a statue of José Martí, zooming out into a comfortable distance to reveal the full building with the name "CUBA Visión" in orange and the number 6 in red.
-'''FX/SFX:''' CGI animation.
-'''Music/Sounds:''' A synth fanfare that becomes majestic after the initial four notes.
-'''Availability:''' Rare.
-'''Editor's Note:''' A nice effort for its first ID animated in 3D, especially considering the conditions the country was facing at the time.

-'''Logo:''' On a blue background, the round fades-in and turn into green first. Then, it turns back and it becomes 2D, and the word "Cubavision" fades-in.
-'''FX/SFX:''' CGI animation.
-'''Music/Sounds:''' A synth-pop fanfare.
-'''Availability:''' Rare.
-'''Editor's Note:''' Compared to the previous logo, it's amateurish and clunky, and the word "cubavisión" is tilted in the end.
