Logo: We first see an all white background which then fades to black. Then 12 white bars (sans the second one which is red) appear one by one. Then the text "CNR VIDEO" in a white rounded font with a red shadow flies in from below as every other bar fades out and settles in the middle.

Variant: Sometimes, the logo takes place on a black/blue gradient background, the animation of the lines is wiped in by a clear plate, and rather than the text, a blue elegonated marquee with a turquoise shadow with 3 stripes (yellow/orange/red) and the text:
