Logo: In a space full of planets, a red planet and approaches the viewer. Then, various men in blue uniforms fly and settle on the planet. Then we see a rising "2". As that happens, the planet flies away, unveiling the whole image, and the men start flying. They then regroup themselves above the "2" and turn around to reveal the letters of the word "ANTENNE" on their coats. The men then fly away.

Variant: A closedown variant exists where we see one of the men flying towards the others as the two is slowly unveiled, before turning around and flying away like in the normal variant

Antenne 2 (1983) Provided ID could not be validated.HqFcgDNjkGc}}

Logo: We see a black background with pink lighting on the top half and brown lighting on the bottom. One of the brown lights then moves to the right until it stops, and various geometrical shapes fly around it. Then some color-changing circles appear on the brown light as the shapes fly around it. As that happens, the circles separate themselves from the orbit and form an orbit of their own. Then we see a bubble as the logo transitions to a black body of water under a dusk sky. At the top we see rectangles with stripes on them, while bubbles fly around the screen. The rectangles then move to the lower part of the screen, as the sky becomes a morning sky, turning to a diagonal angle as it does. Then the screen moves away to reveal a water background, which zooms out to reveal the Antenne 2 logo.

Trivia: The sequence is intended to represent the transition from night to daytime.
