Background
In 1991 Irena Lesnevskaya and her son Dmitriy founded REN TV, an independent production company. The first show, Irony of Fate, or Merry Christmas!, was broadcasted on December 24, 1991. In 1996 Lesnevskaya bought a TV franchise and the company became a TV channel. In 2006 it was partially sold to German RTL Group, while other 70% are still owned by Russian industry holdings. Later that year the name was changed to Cyrillic and finally the "tv" was omitted in 2007. The channel was known as the last uncensored source of news, but this is no longer the case. All state channels in Russia are censored and controlled, meaning they are banned from showing news which could spoil any party's image; though this is not officially admitted.
1st Logo (December 24, 1991-1992)
Visuals: In space, two sky blue arches with flashing pink, purple and lavender lines inside, and the Earth appear and spin counterclockwise. When they stop, the sky blue "tv" with flashing lines inside, appears and stands between arches in the upper right part of forming circle. The sky blue "REN" with same flashing lines as arches and "tv" inside, flies from top and zooms out to the logo. All the logo zooms out and the word "ПРЕДСТАВЛЯЕТ" flips upwards from bottom.

2nd Logo (1992-1998)
Visuals: On the cerulean smoke background, the 3D rough cyan blue REN tv logo appears from the right and moves to the center. When it stops, the spark appears and makes the logo smooth, moving along the bottom arch and shining. "tv" shines, the spark disappears and reappears lower, moving parallel to bottom arch, wiping in "ПРЕДСТАВЛЯЕТ" and goes backwards. The logo flashes, making the starry background inside the logo and we zoom through it, transitioning to the starry background and fades out afterwards.
