Background

WITF is a PBS affiliate located in Harrisburg, Lancaster, and York, Pennsylvania.

1st Ident (1990-1994)


Visuals: On a background of diagonal red, green, and blue stripes, there is the text "WITF 33 HARRISBURG" on a blue diamond in the far right.

Technique: Digital shining effects over a CGI still render.

Audio: None.

Availability: It was seen on Computer Chronicles, often replacing the KCSM logo. (There may be episodes that have both the KCSM and WITF logos at the start of the show, but in-credit texts were at the end).

2nd Ident (1994-1995)


Visuals: There is a red dot against a white background. The text "WITF" in black flies in towards the camera at a fast pace, with the "I" underneath the dot. "HARRISBURG" and "PRESENTS" fade in below.

Technique: 2D computer animation.

Audio: An upbeat synth-pop tune.

Availability: It was seen at the start of Big Comfy Couch episodes from this era on PBS.

3rd Ident (1994-1998)


Visuals: There is the WITF logo, but colored gold and with a brighter red dot. It seems to be against a plain black background, but a spotlight appears to shine on the logo, and then moving to the left. "H A R R I S B U R G" fades in below.

Technique: Computer animation

Audio: A mellow piano and saxophone tune, somewhat in the style of Kenny G.

Availability: It appeared at the end of Big Comfy Couch episodes on PBS from this era.

4th Ident (1998-2000)


Visuals: Against a black background, a picture of the Earth zooms away from the viewer, rotating as it does so, revealing the WITF logo in steel gray and dotting the "I". A light passes below as "HARRISBURG" fades in.

Technique: Computer animation.

Audio: A quick synth-techno tune.

Availability: This was seen at the end of Big Comfy Couch episodes on PBS from this era (Nashville Public TV now produces the show in the U.S.).
