Sky One Mix/Sky Mix

9 December 2002-30 October 2005

ID: We see the then-current Sky One logo, however, the logo is black and appears over a yellow background instead of the standard orange background. Various animations play to form the word "Mix" in the place.

Later Variant: Beginning on 24 September 2004, following the rebranding of Sky One, a new ident package featuring parts of the "x" in "MIX" form up the "SKY MIX" logo.
