Top of the Hour 1985 (1985-1986)

Videos

Technique: A blend of stock footage, 2D and live action setpieces.

Audio: Yet another update of the One Small Step theme.


Conga Line (1985-1989)

Audio: A conga beat.


Day & Night (1985-1990)

Videos

ID: We see the MTV logo against a sunny yellow background when it suddenly morphs into a street. A flaming electric guitar arrives and explodes at the screen, revealing a heart that morphs back to the MTV logo, now in a city at night.

Technique: 2D animation.

Audio: Cartoon sounds and a hard rock score.


Yells (1985-1988)

Videos
