Background

Sistem Televisyen Malaysia Berhad, operating as TV3 (pronounced as Tivi Tiga), is a Malaysian free-to-air television channel owned by the Media Prima conglomerate. It was launched on June 1, 1984 as the country's first and oldest private television channel in Malaysia, as well as the country's third oldest channel. As of October 2021, it remains as the most-viewed television channel in Malaysia.

1st ID (June 1, 1984-December 31, 1986)

• 

Visuals: Against a space background, a blue lighting bolt from the top left of the screen strikes the center, followed by a red bolt from the top right. A colorful explosion then appears, followed by an outlined abstract cyan TV3 text made with outlines zooming towards the screem with a trail effect. The trails then disappear, and the logo turns solid and being split into ten horizontal pieces, with additional strips from the right side of each piece. This also makes the T blue, the V yellow, and the 3 red, forming the logo. The text Sistem Televisyen Malaysia Berhad in a white Arial Black font then fades in below the logo.

Trivia: The colors of the logo are based on the colors of the Malaysian flag, excluding white.

Technique: 2D computer animation.

Audio: A synth wave theme with a group of women singing the channel's name.

2nd ID (January 1, 1987-1989)

• 
  Short variant
• 
  Long variant

Visuals: Against a space background, three sets of two parallel lines in blue, yellow, and red (from top to bottom respectively) enter the screen together starting from different positions. Once that's done, a computer-generated skyline view of Kuala Lumpur (from the time) then fades in as the parallel lines leave the screen and the camera flies by the buildings. The TV3 logo then appears and zooms towards the screen and settles at the center of the screen. The lines then enter the screen again and stay for a few seconds before leaving again, as the slogan from the time, "Rangkaian Sukaramai", written in cursive with a curved line under it, zooms in and settles under the logo. A light flashes at the top left of the T, the bottom of the V, and the top right of the 3. This cycle is repeated for the rest of the ident.

Variants:

• A slightly shorter variation of the long variant existed where the parallel lines fade out instead of splitting and leaving the screen, and the Kuala Lumpur skyline, the logo, and the slogan briefly spawn trails.
• An alternate variation existed where the parallel lines enter the screen one by one. The set zooms in further before splitting horizontally and leaving the screen. The skyline view of Kuala Lumpur (from the time) then fades in. As the camera passes by the buildings, the complete TV3 logo zooms towards the screen and settles above the center of the screen, along with the slogan under it. The pattern of the light flashing is also different, where it flashes at the top left of the T, the left of the bottom of the V, the top right and the bottom right of the 3.

Technique: 2D computer animation.

Audio: Same as before, but with "Untuk Anda!" added to the lyrics and the music being extended.

Audio Variant: The extended variation used a slightly different arrangement, and the "Untuk Anda" line is omitted as the arrangement fades out.

3rd ID (1989-May 31, 1994)

• 
  Original variant (1989-May 31, 1992)
• 
  Later variant (June 1, 1992-May 31, 1994)
• 
  1991 Hari Raya Aidilfitri variant
• 
  1993 Hari Raya Aidilfitri variant

Visuals: The sequence begins with a view of the sea as a glass structure of the TV3 logo emerges from it. The camera then pans up to show a sky background as the logo rotates and the camera flies into it, before it is shown fully again. As lights come in and gives the logo its three colors on its front side, the background turns into a space background, and the slogan from before flies in. The logo then faces toward us as the camera passes by the stars.

Later Variant: Starting from June 1, 1992, just before the TV3 logo faces towards the screen, the serif texts BERITA TERKINI (FIRST IN NEWS) and HIBURAN SENSASI (BEST IN ENTERTAINMENT) fly in and settle stacked, and a line forms horizontally between them. The final product of the variant is like this:

TV3

BERITA TERKINI
---------------------------
HIBURAN SENSASI

Variants:

• There are two known idents from the era commemorating the end of Ramadan in 1411 of the Lunar Islamic calendar:
  • April 1991: The camera pans to a window in a periwinkle-white gradient room with copies of the TV3 logo on it. The camera then zooms to the outside, where it pan by a mosque into a grey background, where pictures of a Jawi-like symbol, a table with two Qurans, and an Islamic rug are shown, followed by footage of Muslims in a mosque, a family having food, and a close-up of the food usually eaten on Eid al-Fitr. As the camera pans by a picture of an unidentified picture and a window containing footage of fireworks being played, ketupat and Islamic-related pictures are shown falling as a green star-shaped Islamic symbol flies up. Selamat Hari Raya in a green Jawi-styled writing zooms in and settles at the top of the screen as the serif text "A I D I L F I T R I" appears letter by letter at the center and the TV3 logo flies in and settles at the bottom as it shines.
  • March 1993: The camera pans from a yellow TV to a bird with colored feathers (presumably the mascot of the channel from the time) wearing clothing usually worn by Muslims on Eid al-Fitr, including a songkok. The footage zooms from the screen to settle on a detailed green background above cursive text in white reading "Selamat Hari Raya Aidil Fitri", and a shape resembling the shape of an analog TV screen with the TV3 logo on it fades in below the text as the bird turns its head towards the screen. This variant was produced by APT.
• An ident commemorating the channel's 9th anniversary aired around June 1993. It features footage of multiple different programmes (Lightning Force, Mr. Bogus, Majalah Tiga, MacGyver, Pendekar, Seulas Pinang, and several more unspecified programmes) flying around on a periwinkle background. "1984" (with "1" and "84" in grey, and "9" in blue) and "1993" (with "1" and "3" in grey, the first "9" being yellow and the second "9" being red) fly in from the left and right respectively. They squeeze themselves and turn into a giant 9 in an Elephant font. The programmes stop spawning and the grey "ULANGTAHUN KE" forms at the top of the screen as the background darkens. A brown-yellow kite flies in from the left to the center of the screen and settles behind the text, and the confetti stops spawning. The parts of the TV3 logo fly in from the right side of the screen one by one and settle at the bottom right of the kite.

Technique: 3D CGI produced in-house by the TV3 graphics department.

Audio: A synth tune that starts off as a calm rearrangement of the 1984 ident's music before evolving into a powerful one, followed by a group of women singing the channel's name.

Audio Variants:

• The 1991 Hari Raya variant uses a synth theme which ends with a short rendition of Selamat Hari Raya by Saloma.
• The 9th anniversary variant uses a bombastic trumpet and synth theme.
• Unknown for the 1993 Hari Raya variant, as the only footage available online comes from an APT showreel.

4th ID (June 1, 1994-February 29, 2000)

• 
  Normal variant
• 
  Special variant (1995)

Visuals: Against a night sky, a colorless, translucent pad resembling the shape of an analog TV screen fades in as the camera pans down to see a CGI-generated view of Kuala Lumpur from the time. Several blue, yellow, and red thick square-shaped light rays pass through the pad. Rays of light of the logo's colors pass through the pad twice, and a Malaysian flag fades in on it. The yellow and red parts of the flag rise, before revealing that the flag had turned into the TV3 logo. As the logo settles its position and the pad tilts, the slogan from the later variant of the previous ident rotates and flies in. The logo then shines.

Variants:

• A special variant from 1995 existed which features the bird from before in a dark environment flying and landing at the left of the screen with a spotlight. The bird yells and looks at the screen before making a quieter sound. The following text then fades in:

SENTIASA
BERSAMA
TV3
Berita Terkini
Hiburan Sensasi

In the English version of this variant, the text is translated and the slogan is removed:

THE BEST
IS HERE
TO STAY
TV3

• Programme Ratings: This variant is known to have aired around 1997. Over an animated dark red background, there are the certification symbols of Malaysia from the time (U, 18SX, 18PA, 18PL, and 18SG) floating around before leaving the screen. Serif texts "Pastikan", "Pilihan Anda", and "Tepat" form, in order from top to bottom, as the TV3 logo slides in from the left on the screen and settles at the bottom of the screen. The final product of the variant is stacked like this:Pastikan
  Pilihan Anda
  Tepat
  TV3
• There is a Lunar New Year variant that is known to have aired around February of 2000. A flame (presumably fireworks) is first shown flashing over footage of two red rectangles with a symbol of a Chinese dragon in gold on both of them closing a gold background. The footage is combined with footage of a curtain waving. As the flame disintergrates, text in cursive readingGong
  Xi
  Fa
  Cai
  WISHING YOU A HAPPY & PROSPEROUS NEW YEARfades in at the middle of the screen, the TV3 logo fades in under the text, and the background gains a red tint.

Technique: CGI produced at Animated and Post-Production Techniques by Steve Bristow and Goe Aun Hoe, who produced it with TDI, a French animation software that later became part of Alias, a software company which would later be acquired by Autodesk, Inc. in 2006.

Audio: A twenty-five-note news-like orchestral fanfare, accompanied by soft and loud swooshing sounds. On the last four notes of the fanfare, a group of women singing the channel's name is heard.

Audio Variants:

• The 1995 special variant uses a high-pitched audio of the main ident's theme, accompanied by the bird's flapping, yelling, and the sound it makes after it looks at the screen.
• The 1997 Programme Ratings variant uses a fifteen-note electric guitar tune.
• The 2000 Lunar New Year variant uses a calm seven-note synth tune accompanied by electronic drumbeats.

5th ID (March 1, 2000-2003)

• 
  Malay variant
• 
  English variant
• 
  2001 Deepavali variant

Visuals: On a golden cloudy background with two texts reading the channel's name, with one of them being lowercase, outlined and moving downwards starting from the top left of the screen, and the other being uppercase, colored dark brown, duplicated, and moving towards the left. Several texts of the company's name then reveal themselves by zooming from the screen before fading away. The TV3 logo is then formed by moving lights as the clouds become darker. The logo flashes and becomes more visible as the registered symbol fades in next to the top right of the logo. It then shrinks a bit and moves to the right as the grey "Duniamu" flies in next to the top left of the logo letter by letter. A duplicate of the text then appears and zooms towards the screen as it quickly fades away.

Variants:

• An English variation existed where "Duniamu" is translated to "Your World".
• A Deepavali variant from 2001 is known to have existed. The first shot features a water drop falling into the water, causing the latter to ripple. The sequence then fades into a shot of an unidentified object (unidentified due to the only footage of the variant online being damaged) floating on the surface of water, followed by a hand taking a water plant (possibly a flower) out of the water. The sequence then fades into a square zooming from the screen against a background with two leaves and presumably tiny flames in the background. As the square zooms from the screen to form a symbol of a water plant, "Selamat Hari" and "Deepavali" are revealed at the top and bottom of the square respectively. At the bottom, the TV3 logo with "Duniamu" next to the top left of the logo fades in.

Technique: 2D CGI. The 2001 Deepavali variant combines the technique of the main ident with live action stock footage.

Audio: First, a choir accompanied by a xylophone tune. As the logo forms, conga sounds can be heard. After the logo becomes more visible, two synthesized notes play, with the first being the longest. At the end, five chime notes are heard.

Audio Variants: The 2001 Deepavali variant uses a calm, synthesized tune accompanied with conga sounds and some light sounds.

6th ID (early 2000s?)

• 
• 

Visuals: There are two idents known to have aired on the channel:

• There is a giant ribbon colored blue, yellow, and red flying over some grassy mountains, followed by another one which flies over the first one. A third ribbon then flies over the farthest mountain and the two ribbons. The fourth ribbon flies towards the screen and transitions to reveal that a giant ribbon is wrapping around the Earth. As the Earth continues to be wrapped, the TV3 logo with THE ONE TO WATCH under it fades in at the top right of the screen.
• A silhouette of antennas and birds on small buildings are shown. After one of the birds fly away to the left, blue, yellow, and red auroras appear in the night sky. Two more birds then fly away, and the TV3 logo fades in with PILIHAN TERBAIK (BEST CHOICE) underneath it.

Technique: CGI made in association with Leo Burnett Company, an American advertising agency.

Audio:

• The Giant Ribbon ident uses a portion of The National Anthem by Radiohead.
• The Aurora ident uses the sounds of birds chirping and flying away, accompanied by audio of a few programs and a portion of Don't Look Back in Anger by Oasis.

7th ID (2003-May 31, 2006)

• 

Visuals: The sequence starts off with a view of a grassy field with bushes and pink, blocky trees as a quadrilateral flies in and several giant plants grow around the field. A red ray of light flies in. The sequence cuts to another view of the field with a boy running around happily, swinging his arms as more quadrilaterals fly in. The sequence then cuts to a teenage girl jumping for joy, followed by another shot of the field with two blue rays of light flying in and a close up view of the boy and teenage girl from before. After the sequence cuts to yet another view of the field, a yellow light flies in, and the screen flashes to a white background with blue, yellow, and red shapes flying around. The shapes then form the TV3 logo, and the registered trademark symbol fades in next to the top right of the logo.

Technique: A combination of live action and CGI.

Audio: It starts off with seven xylophone notes, followed by a twenty-two note electric guitar tune, and an instrumental synth rendition of the "Tivi Tiga" jingle.

8th ID (2004?-2006?)

• 

Visuals: The sequence starts off with a yellow object rotating above a silver surface. It is then revealed to be noodles being twisted by a woman in a noodle restaurant, where multiple people walk by her. A man in a motorcycle helmet sits on a chair near the counter, presumably about to order the noodles the woman is making. The man turns on the television, which displays a scene from a drama, where a woman is sobbing and is using a tissue to wipe off her tears. The woman making the noodles is distracted by the program that is airing on the television, and she begins to shed tears dyed blue and red, which fall on the noodles. The customer is stunned when he is served the noodles due to them being dyed from the woman's colored tears. Nevertheless, he decides to take the noodles anyway. The screen then darkens as a light from a spotlight appears and the TV3 logo along with THE ONE TO WATCH under it fades in. The screen also receives a projector effect.

Trivia: This ident contains a noticeable error. When the woman begins shedding tears, the noodles are seen still on the table, even though the woman is still holding them.

Technique: A combination of live action and CGI.

Audio: It starts off with a dramatic violin theme and swooshing sounds as the woman is twisting noodles. As the woman begins shedding tears, a portion of 郎是春日風 by Bai Hong is played. The sound of a projector then plays when the logo appears.

The scenes then switch randomly, revealing other scenarios such as soccer being played with fans watching, four women dancing (presumably in a concert), and a girl having fun in a computer-generated world as she jumps for joy before riding on a carpet and sliding down a yellow-colored slide. Almost a second after the entire family from before is revealed, the screen zooms out as footage from multiple programs that aired on the channel pop up. After the camera zooms out a bit further, the screens turn into the TV3 logo, which later faces the screen as the background turns white while the slogan from the time, "Inpsirasi Hidupku" (in a Helvetica font) and the registered symbol with a light behind it fade in.
• Bumpers:
  • Post-programme: On a black background, there are blue-tinted pads showing footage of an unspecified program flying in from the right to make a blue T.

  Aksi slot variant
• 
  Lestary slot variant

Visuals:

• Ident: On a salmon-magenta-blue background with glowing dust particles, silver abstract shapes shaped like a "2" and a "5" come together to form models of the two numbers, in two different views. Two lights pass through the screen as it forms a trail, causing the scenario to flash to a scene where the number models and the silver TV3 logo flip in, as the numbers spell "25", with the "TV3" logo above them. A few more lights pass in, and a flash appears below the "25", with "Inspirasi Hidupku" fading in at the same position of the flash.
• Bumper: Just the last few seconds of the ident, which played on the channel prior to continuing programmes after the commercials.

Variants:

• Silver Jubilee: The sequence switches scenes from the 2009 Inspirasi Hidupku music video, which vary. It ends with a kid watching TV, which is playing the channel's ident from 2008. The footage zooms out, revealing to be on a layer of a silver pad, accompanied by many other programmes. The programme pads then move to form the "25".

• Slot Variants:
  • Seram (Horror): The camera zooms away from a hole in a door of a dirty and dusty room, where a table is broken. The windows close as the camera zooms away from the haunted house, a lighting bolt strikes, and multiple birds are seen fly away. The camera passes from the branches of trees, before the trees are revealed in a graveyard to be shaped like the number "25", with the TV3 logo above them. Below the number, "Inspirasi Hidupku" in a creepy font flies in letter by letter. Another lightning bolt then strikes.
  • Aksi (Action): The sequence starts off with a brief view of the shining moon and a city at night, before two cars (one red and one yellow) drive into the scene, racing each other. The camera briefly focuses on the cars before the camera pans down to transition to the scene where the two cars do a U-turn, as the road is revealed to be shaped like the number "25". As the camera zooms out to see a full view of the road, the cars vanish, as the TV3 logo and the slogan are revealed above and below the number respectively.
  • Lestary: The sequence starts off with a purple curtain opening, revealing a scene of a restaurant, with silhouettes of a woman and a man talking to each other. The camera zooms towards a candle in a bowl, which is at the middle of the table. Gold glowing dust particles then appear and move into the flame, which the camera is zooming towards. As the background then turns dark magenta, the "25" numerals fade in, along with the TV3 logo and the slogan at their usual positions.

  Nighttime variant
• 
• 

Visuals: The ident consists of clips from the Inspirasi Hidupku music video from 2010. First, it shows different views of a police car with the 999 logo on it, before the camera pans to a woman at the top right. Different clips consisting of different views of sceneries are then shown, which consist of TV3 staff filming a female news reporter for a news channel, a woman using the TV3 app on her iPhone, which she enables a mode to display a bigger screen outside of the phone towards her, a man doing makeup on a woman, TV3 staff filming news reports from the Buletin Utama studio, dramas being filmed, different women being entertained watching TV, more news reports from the Buletin Utama studio being filmed, and four family members (consisting of a father, a mother, a boy, and a girl) on a couch watching TV as the kids try to grab the remote from their father. Finally, the sequence shows multiple people dressed in black holding a stick with colored light, and they appear to be forming the TV3 logo.

As the camera passes by them along with flying dandelion seeds, a bee, and a butterfly, the screen move to the forest with the sun in the distance far away and blue and purple flower trees growing, where it shows a blue and a yellow bird holding the 3 from the channel's logo covered with flowers with teal ribbons. The birds fly into the sky, and we follow them. The camera pans down as the 3 falls and the flowers fly away to form the TV3 logo next to a tree. The logo shines.
• Nighttime Variant: Against a sky background shows silver pads uncovering what appears to be the TV3 logo. Different views of the logo are then shown before it cuts to show the logo facing towards the screen as the silver pads shrink and disappear and the slogan from the time, "Inpsirasi Hidupku" is revealed.
• 26th Anniversary Variants: Against a white gradient background, colored clouds form, depending on what color it is. A textured sphere pops in, and multiple objects pop up on it. The set of objects then disappear, and another set of objects pop up on it. As the sphere disappears along with the objects, parts of a large red "26" in the style of the channel's logo fly in, and "Tahun (Years)" in Helvetica appears next to it. The text disappears as the number zooms away from the screen. While the clouds disappear, the parts of the TV3 logo spin while flying in before settling, along with the letters of the slogan. Here are the variations:
  • If the clouds are green, the sphere has a grassy texture. The first set of objects that appear are a road, a gingerbread house surrounded by candy canes, ice cream comes, lollipops, and candy wrappers, a roundabout, two spring riders colored yellow and lavender, tress, a slide shaped like a pink giraffe, three blocks colored red, yellow and blue from top to bottom, a swing, a tower with a red curvy slide, a jungle gym, and a giant rotating hot pink candy wrapper.

The sphere and objects then disappear, leading to the final product of the ident.
  • If the clouds are blue,
  • If the clouds are violet,
• 1Malaysia Variant: A variant of the 2009 Silver Jubilee variant from the previous ident is first shown. Nearly seventeen seconds into the variant, a frame of a "1" with "Malaysia" in white on its bottom (to resemble the 1Malaysia logo) punctured through a light silver background zooms out. As the frame continues to zoom out, it shines, and "Mendokong" and "Merealisasikan Inspirasi" fade in between the frame. Then, the footage of the ident playing inside the frame cuts to black. Shortly after, parts of the TV3 logo and slogan fly in to form the logo itself, as an "R" zooms in to form a registered trademark symbol next to the top right of the logo. The slogan then shines as the logo along with it settles at the center of the screen.

Later Variant: Starting from 2012, the logo formation is different.
