'''Variants:'''
*There's a version with <u>different panning animation</u>. First we see the NBC logo floating in mid-air. Then the camera zooms away from the logo and zooms into the "BE THERE" sign with the dotted shine revealing "LET'S ALL." Then it zooms through the letter "E."
*There's another version which is on a black background with blue being emitted below. The NBC logo floats in mid-air on the right and "LET'S ALL BE THERE" sits on the left. This was used as a generic NBC ID.
*An <u>alternate version</u> of this variant without the peacock was used as a template for NBC stations to place their logos when needed.
*A version was made for <u>Seven in Australia</u>. In this version, the Seven logo replaces the NBC logo.
*A version was also made for <u>SBT and TVS in Brazil</u>. In this version, the words "LET'S ALL BE THERE" are translated into Portuguese as "QUEM PROCURA ACHA AQUI". Also, the entire logo is 2D and cuts to the words coming in. After the camera zooms through the words, either the SBT or TVS logo zooms in.

**KPRC-TV 2 (Houston, Texas): The station's logo replaces the NBC logo.
Line 149 ⟶ 142:
'''Technique:''' CGI animated by Pacific Data Images on a DEC VAX-11/780. The modelling and animation was done on an IMI 500 display, and the lighting and rendering were done on a DeAnza framebuffer. The final logo was recorded to 1" C videotape on an Sony BVH-2000. This logo was designed by Harry Marks, who also designed the 1983-1989 ''Entertainment Tonight'' intro and the 1988-1989 ABC "Something's Happening" promotional film.

* The <u>Seven version</u> replaces the lyrics "N-B-C" with "Seven Yeah!", "Seven Wow!", and "Channel 7."
*On the <u>generic NBC ID of that time</u> (with the peacock on the right and the slogan on the left), a shortened and instrumental version of the campaign's song is heard and we hear an announcer (played by voice actor Danny Dark) saying "This is the NBC television network."

'''Variants:'''
*A version exists mostly for <u>local station idents</u>. The wall, usually with the station's logo on it, is facing the camera this time. It then turns around to show the "{{color

*A version was made for <u>Seven in Australia</u>. In this version, the Seven logo replaces the NBC logo. One alternate version of this variant used in one promo had the logo animating in reverse. Another alternate version of this variant used as a station had stylized buildings changing color and dancing, before the Circle 7 forms and zooms to the same {{color

These are all variants of the network version.
*There's a version from "Computer Animation Magic" where the background music is a generic stock, along with an interview by Harry Marks stating "I want something that looks like Vegas". Text reading "PACIFIC DATA IMAGES FOR MARKS COMMUNICATIONS" appears in the bottom right corner. This was likely taken from a compilation of computer graphics. Hence the title of the program.
Line 203 ⟶ 196:
*Another variant with no Dark voiceover has a version that begins with a slap bass vamp for the jingle before transitioning to the main theme. This can be seen [https://youtu.be/JT_wMgtf2oM?t=58 here].
