The channel was launched on August 27, 2001 along with YLE FST and YLE24 channels under its original name YLE Teema. It provided documentaries, international movies and music-related programs. YLE Teema also held programming segments featuring movies almost every day of the week (Uusi Kino, Keskiviikon Kino, Kino Suomi, Perjantain Kino, Teemalauantai and Kino Klassikko), each one presenting their specific themed movies. On March 5, 2012, the channel was renamed Yle Teema as the result of the company's brand change. On October 25, 2016, it was confirmed, that Yle Teema and all its programs would move from the seventh channel slot to the fifth one alongside Yle Fem and on April 24, 2017, Yle Teema & Fem was founded. 1st Logo(August 27, 2001-2006)Nicknames: "lYLEl Teema"Logo: TBAFX/SFX: TBAMusic/Sounds: TBAAvailability: TBAEditor's Note: TBA2nd Logo(2006-March 4, 2012)<iframe frameborder="0" height="167" src="http://wikifoundrytools.com/wiki/closinglogos/widget/youtubevideo/8a37e25d3823543693285bb2a86dd6d835de0da3" width="295"></iframe><iframe frameborder="0" height="167" src="http://wikifoundrytools.com/wiki/closinglogos/widget/unknown/279c85d23cef876356ad426f694eeb8ebd05763d" width="296"></iframe><iframe frameborder="0" height="167" src="http://wikifoundrytools.com/wiki/closinglogos/widget/youtubevideo/a00d79abc96bda42d7e1eeb4a94d8a40cf4bcb5d" width="295"></iframe>Nicknames: "lYLEl Teema II", "The Splat", "Paint and More"Logo: On a white background, a yellow paint splashes from the right side of the screen with small amount of it appears on the bottom side. The paint keeps spreading forward slowly with another amount of paint then splashes to the screen from the top left corner. More paint spreads from the right side, while the previous paint mess quickly dissolves from the screen. After another paint splash happens on the bottom left corner, stylized "TEEMA" fades in from right to left on the center with a small grayish fume seen spreading from the round "a".Variants:There's another variant similar to one described above, but we see a paint spot placed on a the channel logo, above the "a".Another, shorter variant features a purple paint spreading on the screen. In this one, the grayish fume is seen again above "a".Yet another color variant exists with cyan paint seen on a white background and a paint spot appearing above the "a".A different type of variant features different colored paint spots popping in on a white background ("lYLEl Teema" could also be spotted on the bottom of the screen throught the logo animation), as the camera is tilting horizontally. With spots slowly rounding larger, four different colored lines are seen weaving between paint spots and even twisting through each other. We then cut to multiple, sketchy triangles turn straight for a better view, as it cuts to the closeup of turning triangles. We then see sketchy diamonds popping in and turning straight for a better view and the scene is cutting to another closeup shot of blue and purple diamonds then turning back and popping out, as two green and blue lines are weaving from left and right with multiple paint spots flipping around for a better view or drawn as outlines. As two lines collide to each other, they form sketchy "TEEMA" with different colors.FX/SFX: Different colored paint spreading on a white background, the small grayish fume.Music/Sounds: Smooth ambient synth music; each variant has slightly different tune for it.Availability: Extinct on TV. Each variant could be spotted prior the next program.Editor's Note: None. 3rd Logo(March 5, 2012-April 24, 2017)<iframe frameborder="0" height="255" src="http://wikifoundrytools.com/wiki/closinglogos/widget/youtubevideo/a5acf0327cb88682ea4e4e81867b7e6433d76635" width="453"></iframe><iframe frameborder="0" height="260" src="http://wikifoundrytools.com/wiki/closinglogos/widget/unknown/b8038f16d5825792bb1a9b9179837616c07d8d77" width="460"></iframe>Nicknames: "yle TEEMA", "Monochromatic Orange", "Humans and Nature", "Messy and Clean", "White Stamp IV"Logo: On yellow and orange background, we see multiple blurry plates moving around the periphery and a unknown entity flying around, while drawing a white circle and leaving a trail behind. Both the white line and trail soon disappear as the entity continues flying. We then see a white, blurry objects revolving around the screen and coming into focus to reveal to be "yle" with transparent font inside the white stamp and "TEEMA" right at the center of the screen. We can also see other blurry plates and the white line disappearing on the background.Variants: Sometimes, different clips will take place instead of the orange background.Ballerina: A shot of an grasshopper, focused on with a orange light spot on it and the rocky surface below it, slowly starts to make a single leap in slow-motion. It then cuts to a farther shot with a ballerina in orange leaping over the same surface, along with a shot of the Earth in the distance. Several white, blurry objects then revolve around the screen for a second, all before coming into focus to reveal the YLE stamp and "TEEMA" to the right of it. At the same time it forms, a orange ring of messy strokes forms around it.Flower: A flower opens up in various speeds, slowly revealing a human figure wavering around in a room with a spotlight. The logo also comes in earlier and has the same speed pattern as the flower, with a large orange splotch formed in the middle of the screen.Underwater: A frog is seen on the curb of an street in what appears to be an American city. It then leaps into the puddle below, in which it transitions to a diver entering the water below. The camera then pans to an skyline resembling London and a jellyfish pulsating a orange glow. The logo forms the same way as before, with orange bubbles emerging from behind it.Tree: A shot of a woman's head is seen revolving on the bottom of the screen, being in the same room from "Flower". A tree then starts to grow from the top of her head, staring with the stump and ending with white leaves. The letters revolve around as usual and the leaves turn orange, mostly covered by a messy splotch of orange.Harbor: We see a stage performance during the evening time with the main singer jumping off the stage. We then quickly transition to the shot of harbor with the shooting star seen flying on the sky. As this happens, "YLE" and "TEEMA" appear to the screen. Right after that, we then see messy orange and red lines flying right past the harbor, while almost covering the entire screen.FX/SFX: The actions in the background mixed with live-action and CGI, the letters revolving.Music/Sounds: An ambient tune, different for each the variants.Availability: Extinct. These were usually for transition idents. The main logo was used as both startup and closedown ident.Editor's Note: Some of the imagery may surprise some, but it's harmless.Final Note: Most of the variants seen on the 3rd logo are remade and used during program announcements on Yle Teema & Fem.
