Corporation for Public Broadcasting: Difference between revisions

'''Visuals:''' On a blue background is a {{color|darkblue|dark blue}} emblem consisting of the lowercase letters "{{color|darkblue|'''c'''}}", "{{color|darkblue|'''p'''}}" and "{{color|darkblue|'''b'''}}" stacked together like a mixed-up jigsaw puzzle, and the text "{{color|darkblue|{{Font|serif|'''Corporation for Public Broadcasting'''}}}}" written below in a serif font.  

'''Visuals:''' There is a circle with a stylized "'''{{font|serif|cpb}}'''" cut into it on a blue or black) background, with the text

* On season 1-2 episodes of ''Degrassi Junior High'', the CPB logo on a black background, is blue-{{color|violet}} with a {{color|magenta}} diagonal line sweeping by. Plus, the text is in Haettenschwelier font.

'''Visuals:''' On a space background with stars zooming past is the CPB logo in 3-D, with the circle colored blue and white. First it is slowly rotating 90 degrees to the left. After it finishes rotating, the following text is shown:

* '''Version #1:''' On a textured {{color|#0047AB|cobalt blue}}/{{color|darkviolet|purple}} background with occasional {{color|#DE6FA1|thulian pink}} comets flying past, two circles slide in and form the CPB logo above the white text: <center>{{Font|Serif|CORPORATION<br>FOR PUBLIC<br>BROADCASTING}}</center> At this point, a redesigned version of the CPB circle is now used, with a blue and {{color|lavender|lavender}} outline around it and in the letters. The font is also modified slightly, to ITC Garamond Light. After a few seconds, the text fades out as the logo splits into two CPB logos flying off to opposite sides of the screen so that the words "{{font|serif|Viewers Like You}}" (in plain white plain serif text this time) appear in its place near the top, as more comets fly diagonally upward. For this version, the "{{font|serif|Viewers Like You}}" text sometimes fades out earlier, so the background is shown for about one second before completely fading out.

* '''Version #2:''' Starting on March 22, 1993, a new byline reading "{{font|serif|'''A private corporation funded by the American people'''}}" in a condensed white Garamond font was added under the text. At that time, the text above was arranged centered and appears earlier, before the sweeping {{color|hotpink|pink}} lines. Also, the CPB logo, smaller to make room for the byline, has a {{color|#4682B4|steel blue}}/{{color|#B784A7|opera mauve}} color scheme instead of the casual blue/{{color|lavender|lavender}} one, which is only used on still and superimposed variants.  

'''Visuals:''' On an {{color|aquamarine|aqua}} background, blue and white dots appear in the center of the screen and pulse out, while streaks run through it. The rings then form the CPB logo, redesigned again with smoother text and is now in a square. The "p" and "b" are connected to the edge of the square. The white then fades out inside the text and 4 streaks run along the edges. The same byline appears underneath in all capitals, but with "{{color|blue|CPB.ORG}}" at the end in blue, which is wiped with a streak.

* For the Viewers Like You variant, the same dots appear across the screen, vertically centered, and blue and white rings provide the transition from the CPB slide to the "Viewers Like You" slide, and the process repeats itself for the transition from the "Viewers Like You" to the "Thank You" slide. Both the "Viewers Like You" and "Thank You" slides have the letters moving closer to the center.

* On ''Reading Rainbow'' and 2004 prints of ''Dragon Tales''' first season, the blue dots bounce off the bottom of the screen, then onto the middle and form the CPB logo. The URL slides in to the top left of the screen. Then, the byline (which is now in a straight line, in blue, and not all capitalized) fades in at the bottom and forms a smile. Sometimes, the text may not smile.

* The blue dots version is known to appear on home video on ''America Rebuilds: A Year at Ground Zero'', while the ''Reading Rainbow'' variant can be seen on DVD releases of the show.

'''Visuals:''' On a blue/{{color|darkviolet|purple}}/red ethereal background with silhouettes of random people doing various things, the CPB logo wipes in horizontally (first with the dots, then the text), and the byline from the 9th logo appears. During all of this, the PBS P-Head (the 1989 PBS logo's size) is shown in the background, moving up and down, left and right, etc.

* The blue variant appeared on ''PBS NewsHour'' until July 17, 2015, and is also used for the superimposed variant on most editions of ''Washington Week'' beginning on June 29, 2015. This premiered just a few months after its solo "Viewers Like You" counterpart, and is still used as part of the current CPB/Viewers Like You combo even after the next logo entered use.
