Background

Astro News was launched in 2002, carrying programming from Al Jazeera, BBC World, CCTV-9, Eurosportnews, the Australia Network, and DW-TV. It also aired Berita Astro.

The channel ceased operations in March 1, 2009, and has been replaced with Astro Awani.

ID (September 29, 2003-March 1, 2009)

Visuals: Against a black background, a bunch of lights flash far from us as we see some out-of-focus circles floating around them. Multiple turquoise and fuchsia beams then shoots towards the camera, and we fly by them as the camera tilts several times until the beams are in an X-axis. Two rectangles fade in and rotate to form a bigger rectangle (with the top part being navy and the bottom part being teal). The channel's name, stacked, fades in on the rectangle, which obtains two interior curves.

Variant: There is a post-commercials breakbumper variant where the logo formation is against footage of us passing by a group of beams towards the left.

Technique: CGI produced by Sizzle Video, an Australian motion graphics and media production company.

Audio: There are a few electronic notes, and a woosh as the beams shoot towards the camera. We then hear a five-note orchestral tune, followed by a rendition of Astro's five-note jingle from the time.

Audio Variant: Just three orchestral notes, followed by a few electronic notes, based on the ident.
