'''Visuals:''' Over a black background, there are four metallic lines that look like stairs zooming out. Meanwhile, they are incaved inside a large blue "M". After the logo finishes zooming, the text "Mississippi Public Broadcasting" in Tahoma appears below.

'''Technique:''' 2D zooming effects.


'''Audio:''' A 6-note synth tune or none. In other cases, the end theme.
Nickname: "Epic Public Television"
Logo: On a black background, we zoom out through the top of a lowercase, brown, 3-D "mississippi" (a la the 1986 Warner Home Video logo). There is a yellow glow around the "mississippi" and the dots of the "i"s are at various places. While it is zooming out, it turns counter clockwise to face the viewer. Once it is in place, it flashes yellow while we zoom out past two brown "walls". The "walls" are actually part of the "E" of a stylized "ETV" where the "E" is at a 45-degree angle and the bottom-left is wedged into a combined, brown, "TV". The "mississippi" zooms in while the "ETV" is zooming out and stops alongside the "E" and ends before the "V". Once everything is in place, the whole logo flashes yellow and the letters of the "ETV" are now outlined with yellow.


'''Availability:''' Seen on ''Between the Lions'' from the mid-late 2000s.
Variant: A later short version cuts out the zooming of "mississippi".

FX/SFX: The flashing, zooming, and turning of the letters, done by Digital Effects, Inc. It is appears to be early CGI, which does make it highly advanced for its time.
'''Visuals:''' On the same background as the 2009 PBS logo, "MPB" zooms out, one letter at a time. Below zooms out "Original Production".


'''Technique:''' All CGI.
Music/Sounds: A dramatic violin and drum fanfare (an excerpt from the De Wolfe Music library track "Diffusion" by Reg Tilsley). The short version has three chimes play against a Moog synth bass line.


'''Audio:''' Unknown
Availability: Rare, intact on older prints of The Write Channel, and later programs seen on MPB's YouTube channel. Its longevity is amazing, lasting at least into the early 90's.


'''Availability:''' Unknown.{{AvailabilityExamples}}
Editor's Note: While this logo did not age very well (thanks to its color scheme and dated fonts), it is still a great example of the capabilities of early CGI.

Logo: On a marble background we see two transparent blue cubes that look like E's revolve, come, and and shifted the opposite directions. They form a solid bluetilted"E" (like the E in "ETV" from the previous logo). "Mississippi Educational Network", and "Presents" fade in. A spotlight can be seen shining. Another version had "MISSISSIPPI EDUCATIONAL TELEVISION", in a regular font, and the marble is different.
