WQED: Difference between revisions

'''Logo:''' On a black background, a strange-looking symbol in {{Font color|#FFD900|school bus yellow}} is seen, resembling a tulip of sorts. Above the logo is "A Production of" in a white Arial font, and "WQED, Pittsburgh" is seen below the logo.

'''Logo:''' Filmed live in 16mm from a helicopter-camera monitor, various aerial shots of Pittsburgh are seen several times, including the Mellon Arena, the Cathedral of Learning, the Pittsburgh skyline, Point State Park, and the U.S. Steel tower. On the last shot (which is in a wide-angle lens), "{{Font color|#FFD900|'''from WQED Pittsburgh'''}}" in a {{color|gold|yellow}} Univers font flips in from the bottom of the screen.

'''Logo:''' A shot of the the Pittsburgh skyline at dusk is seen, fading into night after a second. The text "{{Font color|gold|''FROM''}} '''WQED''' {{Font color|gold|PITTSBURGH}}" is seen in a white set of fonts. The WQED logo is in a bold font that glows and has a conjoined "'''WQ'''". "{{Font color|gold|''FROM''}}" and "{{Font color|gold|PITTSBURGH}}" are in a different, plainer font, with the latter stretched across the screen, and a line between it and the WQED logo.

'''Logo:''' On a {{Font color|chartreuse|green}} striped background, a white lens flare glares brightly on screen as a {{Font color|gray|gray}} ring is seen and a {{color|red}} sphere zooms out. The lens flare then consumes the entire ring, causing a {{color|blue}} beveled ring to draw itself in counterclockwise, leaving a small indention for the ball, and "{{Font color|blue|'''WQED'''}}" spreads in below in a much much plainer sans font, colored {{color|blue}} with a bevel effect. As the light dies down, the sphere duplicates itself and draws a small curved slope to connect with the ring, creating a large "{{Font color|blue|'''Q'''}}". As this happens, "{{Font color|red|Multimedia}}" in {{color|red}} blurs in below the text. The logo brightly shines all over as the background zooms in and repeats itself. "{{Font color|red|Multimedia}}" changes to "{{Font color|red|Pittsburgh}}" after a second.

* A local variant has the {{color|red}} orb zooming out and moving on a white background, as multicolored rings wipe in all over the place. As the ball settles into position, a single ring zooms out and meets up with the orb, continuing the logo as usual. The text, however, now includes a slash with "{{Font color|blue|'''WQEX'''}}" attached to it.

*An opening variant exists, where the logo fades in to a white background with the "{{Font color|blue|'''Q'''}}" zooming out, "{{Font color|blue|'''WQED'''}}" fading in, and "{{Font color|red|Multimedia}}" wiping in. They're horizontally arranged at the top portion of the screen, above a row of differently colored rectangles flipping in. They quickly lose their borders and meld into a single line as the logo gains a slight 3D effect. "{{Font color|red|Multimedia}}" wipes to "{{Font color|red|Pittsburgh}}" from right to left, and the motto "STAY CONNECTED" in spaced out black letters, wipes in below the colored line.

*A variant of the above version (used earlier, though, as a produciton logo) has the logo arranged vertically, with smaller text, a bigger logo, and "Multimedia" in white. The background is also set at a different angle and scrolls from left to right, revealing a white fuzzy bar with "{{Font color|blue|produced by}}" in {{color|blue}} inside it.

'''Logo:''' Fading into a black and {{Font color|darkblue|dark blue}} area with transparent clouds, several glowing white "waves" can be seen drawing themselves in. The camera then pans to the right, revealing a brighter area colored {{color|gold|yellow}} and white. The camera then stops as the waves stop glowing turning metallic and a {{color|blue}} ring zooms out to capture them. The camera then zooms out and rotates itself to face straight upwards, revealing more of an {{color|orange}} tint on the right and the ring rotates around, revealing a hill design, and a single lime curves out to form the current Q logo. "{{Font color|darkblue|'''WQED'''}}" then fades in below it, in a {{Font color|darkblue|dark blue}} font similar to the 2nd logo, along with "{{Font|Courier|changes lives}}" in a black typewriter font, fading in the bottom right of the screen.
