Australian Broadcasting Corporation: Difference between revisions

'''Visuals:''' We see the outlined yellow ABC logo. Several copies of the logo zoom out and stop in the logo, and the last copy fills the logo with the yellow colour.

'''Visuals:''' We see what look like fountains in the sky against a black background. The fountains fall, and the ABC logo moves towards us like a rollercoaster, while the metallic floor with some running light reflections moving under the logo. Then the logo flashes on a black-blue gradient background, and a white light has "ABC" (Australian Broadcasting Corporation) fading in, in what looks like neon lights. “ABCTV” flashes above the logo.

'''Visuals:''' We see several red squares form below on a black/blue gradient background. Then, the camera pans inside of one row, and a yellow globe forms in the distance. The camera pans through and up out of the row, and the globe, with a glass ABC logo on it and a map of Australia engraved on the globe, floats to the top, rotating. The ABC logo flies off the right of the globe and towards us. Light bars are seen on the reflection of the logo.

'''Visuals:''' We see several silver ribbons swirling around on a dark blue background. They form an unidentifiable shape at first, but as the camera zooms in the centre, spins around, and zooms out, we see a solid formation of the ABC logo set against a brown floor. "ABCTV" fades in above.

'''Visuals:''' We see a glassy ABC logo turning upward against a background split into thirds that contains one of various image styles relating to Australian heritage. For idents made between 1988 to 1992, the logo is centred on the screen. For idents made between 1992 to 1996, the logo is made slightly smaller and pushed to the near bottom.
