The '''Finnish Broadcasting Company''' (Finnish: Yleisradio Oy/Swedish: Rundradion Ab |
The '''Finnish Broadcasting Company''' (Finnish: Yleisradio Oy/Swedish: Rundradion Ab, officially abbreviated to Yle) is the name of the state-owned Finnish radio and television agency, which was founded in Helsinki on May 29, 1926. Originally named as "O.Y. Suomen Yleisradio – A.B. Finlands Rundradio", the company started as a radio broadcaster, but during 1957, Yleisradio tested broadcasting on television. Suomen Televisio was launched with regular broadcasting, beginning next year on January 1, 1958. The first television newscast from Yleisradio aired on September 1, 1959. Following the acquisition of [[Tesvisio (Finland)|Tesvisio]] and [[Tamvisio (Finland)|Tamvisio]] in 1964, Yleisradio renamed its Suomen Televisio channel to TV-ohjelma 1 and launched its new second channel, TV-ohjelma 2. Both of these channels were later renamed simply to [[Yle TV1 (Finland)|TV1]] and [[Yle TV2 (Finland)|TV2]] respectively in 1971, and again to Yle TV1 and Yle TV2 since 2000. Both channels had separate programming blocks over the years (MTV and FST) and additional channels such as [[Yle Teema & Fem (Finland)|Yle Teema & Fem]] and TV Finland were created alongside the two channels. For three decades, Yleisradio was the sole television monopoly in Finland until the Finnish TV channel reforming happened in 1993, with [[MTV3 (Finland)|Finland]] becoming its own commercial television station. In 1994, the company was renamed to Yleisradio Oy or simply Yle, while in 2012, the company's brand was revamped. Prior to January 1992, Yle didn't use their company logo in any of their television channels. |

This is followed by a subsequent burst of {{Font color|red|red}}, {{Font color|purple|purple}}, {{Font color|blue|blue}}, and {{Font color|green|green}} particles as the camera rotates to an angle below the bursts (which also speeds up the animation). Five solid rings in {{Font color|#FFD900|yellow}}, {{Font color|orange|orange}}, {{Font color|green|green}}, {{Font color|blue|blue}} and {{Font color|green|green}} then emerge from the sphere one by one, in that order. After the rings emerge and the particles disappear for a second, "{{Font color|navy|'''Y L E'''}}" fades in below, forming the final product. |

As the logo takes on a brighter tone, a small shimmer can be seen on top of the right vertical line, while a oblique light sweep goes through the logo. |

The Finnish Broadcasting Company (Finnish: Yleisradio Oy/Swedish: Rundradion Ab, officially abbreviated to Yle) is the name of the state-owned Finnish radio and television agency, which was founded in Helsinki on May 29, 1926. Originally named as "O.Y. Suomen Yleisradio – A.B. Finlands Rundradio", the company started as a radio broadcaster, but during 1957, Yleisradio tested broadcasting on television. Suomen Televisio was launched with regular broadcasting, beginning next year on January 1, 1958. The first television newscast from Yleisradio aired on September 1, 1959. Following the acquisition of Tesvisio and Tamvisio in 1964, Yleisradio renamed its Suomen Televisio channel to TV-ohjelma 1 and launched its new second channel, TV-ohjelma 2. Both of these channels were later renamed simply to TV1 and TV2 respectively in 1971, and again to Yle TV1 and Yle TV2 since 2000. Both channels had separate programming blocks over the years (MTV and FST) and additional channels such as Yle Teema & Fem and TV Finland were created alongside the two channels. For three decades, Yleisradio was the sole television monopoly in Finland until the Finnish TV channel reforming happened in 1993, with Finland becoming its own commercial television station. In 1994, the company was renamed to Yleisradio Oy or simply Yle, while in 2012, the company's brand was revamped. Prior to January 1992, Yle didn't use their company logo in any of their television channels.
Nicknames: "Renkaat (Rings)", "Finnish Saturn Rings", "The Finnish Equivalent of Doordarshan's 80's Logo", "Finnish LSD", "The Invisible Saturn With 5 Differently Colored Rings"
Logo: On a white background, several layers of orange ripples emerge from the bottom left corner of the screen, followed by blue ripples on the bottom right, magenta on the top left, and green on the top right before all of them are obscured by a burst of yellow particles, dispersing around a invisible sphere. This is followed by a subsequent burst of red, purple, blue, and green particles as the camera rotates to an angle below the bursts (which also speeds up the animation). Five solid rings in yellow, orange, green, blue and green then emerge from the sphere one by one, in that order. After the rings emerge and the particles disappear for a second, "Y L E" fades in below, forming the final product.
Trivia: Advertising graphic artist Herbie Kastemaa designed the new company logo nicknamed "Renkaat" (Rings for English) in 1990. Kastemaa used the company's previous logo for the basics of creating the new one (most notably the wavelength seen in the previous logo), as all five rings represent the company's news operations, sport, music, drama and entertainment.
Variants: Yle TV1 had a couple of different variants of this ident seen as startup and closedown idents. It should be noted that these variants were used as main idents for the channel during that time. For more information about variants, see the 7th Yle TV1 logo.
FX/SFX: The ripples, the particles, the rings emerging.
Music/Sounds: A dissonant, yet gentle-sounding synth and string ambient theme.
Availability: Extinct on TV.
Editor's Note: This logo is considered nostalgic to those who grew up in Finland and is considered a favorite to many there, though the dissonant music doesn't really mix well with the calm animation.
Nicknames: "|YLE|", "Tolppa YLE Tolppa (Post YLE Post)", "Finnish Flashing Letters", "Dark Glossy Letters", "Finnish Deep Note"
Logo: On a black background, we see the text "YLE" in a dark and glossy-textured font with vertical lines on both sides, fading in on the background. Then a bright light reflects in the logo and moves from the bottom to the top right corner. As the logo takes on a brighter tone, a small shimmer can be seen on top of the right vertical line, while a oblique light sweep goes through the logo.
Variants:
FX/SFX: The lighting effects and the shimmer on the clean CGI logo.
Music/Sounds: A rumbling, Deep Note-like sound, that ends with a soft one-note chime. After that, we hear short two piano notes.
Music/Sounds Variants:
Availability: Common.
Editor's Note:: None.
Nicknames: "yle", "Cyan Stamp", "Soft Cyan Box"
Logo: On a black background, we see three bright letters appearing one by one, forming the word "yle" on a cyan block with soft edges popping in behind it. As the cyan block pops in, the black background gets brighter from the center point of the screen, becoming white. As the logo moves a little bit closer, we see a tiny sparkle on top of the "l".
Variant: A letterbox version of the logo exists on home video releases.
FX/SFX: The lighting effects on the background, popping letters and cyan block.
Music/Sounds: A four-note synth piano chime followed by a brief echoing that quickly fades out.
Availability: Current.
