1st Logo(1981-1984)<iframe frameborder="0" height="207" src="http://wikifoundrytools.com/wiki/closinglogos/widget/unknown/a1e306f1c9aa414a65cdbb80ac35449e64d0f3f6" width="275"></iframe>Logo: On a black background, many colored bars slide in, forming 5 columns colored blue, light green, yellow, orange, and red respectively. 4 columns rotate to the right or left, but not fully (The yellow column stays put). They turn the other way and fully rotate to their original position. They zoom out a bit as stars line the edges touching the other columns and they start to spin. They then flash when they are just thin lines and then pulse lines of the same color and then start to rotate when they are fully revealed. They then disappear as the letters of "GLOBO" in it's signature typeface appear one by one in the colors of the columns. They then turn white and start to come together as the background gains a blue gradient. "VIDEO" in the same font but in outline form slides in and the rests as the "V" changes position.FX/SFX: The animation of the color bars is pretty good, but the logo forming is choppy.Music/Sounds: A funky and weird disco tune, with a horn-driven finale.Availability: Might be seen on tapes from the time, but it's probably very rare.Editor's Note: None.2nd Logo(1984-1990)<iframe frameborder="0" height="207" src="http://wikifoundrytools.com/wiki/closinglogos/widget/unknown/b5462fa3aaf6ca958d9db7f06f686820b656113e" width="275"></iframe>Logo: We see a cube made of green wire frame rotating wildly. The cube rotates finally so that we can see the first-person perspective inside, of which reveals the lines being many different colors. The colors move up and down the grid thus causing the lines to change colors as well. We then see multiple squares zoom in on each plane of the inner cube. They state different words on them, of which are hard to view. The last square zooms in to fit. It has a word on one of the squares that pass by (each represent a genre on the video, like "SHOW" or "FILME"). This square zooms out. and that abruptly transitions to Scanimated letters, of which occupy the entire screen and are rotated 45 degrees on the Z axis. The words then rotate to a normal angle, revealing the words "GLOBO VIDEO ". "UMA SELECAO" sometimes is stationed at the top as well.FX/SFX: Early wireframe computer graphics combined with 2D animation.Music/Sounds: A whoosh at the beginning, then a powerful and dramatic fanfare with laser beams, with an uprising synth when the almost final screen flies towards us.Availability: See the last logo.Editor's Note: None.3rd Logo(1990-2001?)<iframe frameborder="0" height="255" src="http://wikifoundrytools.com/wiki/closinglogos/widget/unknown/ef5a24322fa7c4c934597b76536596ec9b532d0b" width="340"></iframe>Logo: On a rainbow background, 3 spheres (in red, green, and blue respectively) pass by the screen quickly. When we reach the blue sphere, it protrudes light and a chunk shaped like the the Rede Globo logo comes off of it. Inside the shiny interior is the same rainbow surface and spheres before the sphere turns around and the background turns black. Silver streaks are then "projected" at the piece like a screen, and emerges the Globo Video logo with "APRESENTA" below it. The logo shines as the screen focuses onto it, eventually taking up the whole screen.FX/SFX: Early 90s CGI.Music/Sounds: A calm synth fanfare.Availability: See before.Editor's Note: None.4th Logo(2000-2005)Logo: Over a black/blue gradient background, the metallic text of "GLOBO VIDEO" flips out to the center while red, green and blue streaks slide into the left side. The finished logo is in a left-facing perspective.FX/SFX: Simple, yet effective CGI.Music/Sounds: A majestic fanfare with a whoosh at the beginning.Availability: Seen on newer video releases and DVDs before the company's extinction.Editor's Note: None.
