Logo (December 4, 1990)

Visuals: On a black background, the circular version of the Shahada, in white, appears zooming out. The screen then cuts to various radial patterns that take most of the screen, zooming in. These begin clearing out from the center as the background changes to multiple colors, including green, red, and blue, with the patterns also changing colors briefly. Once the blue background appears, the last patterns begin clearing out. A circular emblem then draws in while zooming out at the top, while, near the center of it, various linear tower-like shapes facing down and a triangular/zig-zag design combination are shown coming out from the top of the circle. Persian text in white then writes in right-to-left at the center and at the bottom, with more handwritten-looking text also being written inside at the bottom of the emblem. After the texts are drawn, the logo remains on-screen for a few seconds before fading out.

Technique: Cel animation.

Audio: A dramatic Middle Eastern style fanfare.

Availability: Seen on Summer 58.
