As the triangle reaches the center, both shapes grow and stretch into a much larger size, and the maroon box shrinks into a rectangle. This creates a empennage (the tail fin of an airplane) that's off-center. "AVCO" in a Microgramma font, appears 2-by-2 on the white part, and "BROADCASTING CORPORATION" in a different font appears under the empennage, stacked on each other. Fading in with it is "PRODUCTION" off to the right in the same font, but much smaller and colored yellow, and a really small copyright notice reading "©(year) AVCO BROADCASTING CORPORATION" in ''extremely'' small print at the bottom of the screen. | ||
* <u>Version B (1970-1977)</u>: On a black background, a white triangle outline starts to zoom in, slowly extending as it does. As we go through it, several of the sides are revealed to be made of red, green, and blue in several different arrangements. When it goes off-screen, the empennage in red, green, blue, and yellow, emerge from the corners of the screen and all come together to briefly form a white empennage before it fades to the Avco logo. The result is notable similar, but the logo is centered with the text below it all now in the Microgramma font as well. The text is also a bit smaller and more compact, "PRODUCTION" is in a dark grey, and the copyright is much bigger as well. | * <u>Version B (1970-1977)</u>: On a black background, a white triangle outline starts to zoom in, slowly extending as it does.
