VID: Difference between revisions

*'''October 25, 1990-1995:''' On an off-white background, we see a thick black line wipe onto the screen from the left side, going right. It begins vibrating horizontally as it continues moving, and then a gray ball comes from the left off-screen and begins bouncing along it at a fast pace. It then falls off as the line stops moving. Then we cut to a large close-up of the ball from a bird's eye view as it falls down into the center and disappears. Two closely-spaced black rings then shoot out from the center of the screen, which is immediately followed by a black circle that fills the screen to create a black background. Then, a stone mask, which is of Chinese Taoist philosopher Guo Xiang and a three-pawed toad sitting on top of his head, fades in. Finally, "{{Font|Times|{{color|#CC7E31|'''ВИD'''}}}}" fades in and shines underneath in large bronze letters, which is Russian for "VID", although it uses a Latin "{{Font|Times|{{color|#CC7E31|'''D'''}}}}" rather than a Cyrillic "Д", resulting in the text looking like "{{Font|Times|{{color|#CC7E31|'''BND'''}}}}".

'''Visuals:''' On a black background with a golden frame, we see a lump of plasticine in the frame. Human hands appear, and they sculpt a newspaper. The black background slowly fades into a white background while the newspaper is being modeled. Then the hands sculpt a radio from the newspaper. The hands then press a button on the radio then to a television. During the modeling of the television, "{{color|#FFAF00|Лучше один раз увидеть}}" ("It is better to see once" in English) is inscribed below the frame. Then we cut to the hands modeling the right antenna of the television. Then goes back to the original position of the camera. The hands press the center small button and turns the big button. Then the screen shows the tail end of the 1st logo. The background turns back to black. It zooms into the television screen when the color of its background changes. Then the "Лучше один раз увидеть" shrinks and then transforms into "{{Font|Times|{{color|#CC7E31|'''ВИD'''}}}}" with a flash.

'''Visuals:''' On a black background, we see an orange rectangular border with "{{color|#FFAF00|Производство телекомпании}}" (in the Pragmatica font), "{{Font|Times|{{color|#FFAF00|'''ВИD'''}}}}" (in the weird serif font) and "{{color|#FFAF00|по заказу ОРТ}}" (in the same Pragmatica font). Below it, there's "Наш адрес в {{Font|Times|{{color|gold|INTERNET}}}}:" and a web address. After a few seconds, we cut to the shortened variant of the first logo.

'''Visuals:''' On a dark cloudy sky with the Spasskaya Tower on the right, several small searchlights scanning the sky, three projectors project the sky with the spinning circles divided into six pieces, and some gray zeppelins passing by, we see a huge TV-set with a large screen and the stage lighting truss with 9 spotlights hanging from it and the staircase on the right of it, where frames from VID programs: ''Один на Один'', ''МузОБОЗ'', ''Час-Пик'', ''Взгляд'', ''Поле Чудес'', ''Тема'', and ''Угадай Мелодию'', are flashing, and the camera is moving. When the screen displays the VID mask, the screen "wipes" to the gray gradient background with the silver wordmark. Everything fades to black, and the word "ПРЕДСТАВЛЯЕТ" appears.
