2nd Logo (2015?-)

• 

Logo: On a static-filled rounded rectangle against a light blue background, the letters 'PPI' stretch in (The first P from the left, the second P zooming in, the I from the top). A tube TV squishes the I and the word 'RELEASING' fades in from the left. We zoom out to reveal everything was in the screen of the TV if the PPI logo, as the print logo from above is seen larger on a black background with 'PPI' in light gray. The antennae of the TV wave around before stopping, with the screen fading out.

FX/SFX: The static, the zooming.

Music/Sounds: Whooshing sounds as the letters come in, a shining effect right after, a pounding effect when the logo zooms out, and a buzzing sound when the screen disappears. During all this there is a droning synth note in the background, similar to the HBO logo.

Availability: Seen on US prints of CityLine and syndicated prints of The Listener. It also appears on Just For Laughs Gags.

Editor's Note: None.
