KIXE-TV

From the Audiovisual Identity Database, the motion graphics museum

Background: KIXE-TV is a PBS affiliate located in Chico-Redding, California.

1st Logo

(1983-199?)

Nickname: "The Snowy Peak"

Logo: We fade in to a snow-capped mountain (likely that of Mt. Shasta) under a sunny sky, with small trees below. The orange text "A PRESENTATION OF KIXE REDDING/CHICO" slides up from below. If you look closely, you can also see a tiny gust of wind at the top of the peak.

FX/SFX: The wind, the text sliding up. Simple animation.

Music/Sounds: A thunderous, but partially audible "BOOM!", then a calm synthesizer jingle.

Availability: Uncommon. The World of Collector Cars may have this logo at the end of their episodes. It doesn't get rerun that often, though. Also seen at the beginning of Mark Kistler's Imagination Station.

Editor's Note: None.

2nd Logo

(199?-200?)

Logo: On the green background we see the letters KIXE rotating out then PRESENTATION text flipping in

Variant: There's is a version with a America waving flag background starting in 2002.

FX:SFX: The animation flipping

Music/Sounds: A seven note tune similar to PBS Election 92 jingle

Availlabity: TBA

3rd Logo

(20??-present)

Logo: On a black background, we see 3 circles sliding up from a stone platform, the shadows of the circles are glowing. The circle on the left is yellow, the middle is blue, and the right is green. The yellow and green slide up again, but going off-screen, while a text that says "KIXE" slides up from the stone platform. Another text that says "productions" slides to the right from left of the screen. The camera zooms in for a bit after.

FX/SFX: The circles and text sliding, the camera zooming.

Music/Sounds: A hip-hop beat.

Availability: Current. Was seen on the KIXE Forum.
