1st Logo (October 29, 1991-1993)

Visuals: On a black background, there is a white flash that covers the entire screen. Then is the text "TELESCENE" in gold. Then, there is a blue line that underlines the text.

Technique: CGI.

Audio: The closing theme.

Availability: Seen on Urban Angel and probably, the first season of Sirens.

Legacy: The logo itself is too simple and it may be a prototype of the next logo.

2nd Logo (September 1, 1993-May 26, 2001)

Videos

Visuals: On a black background, there is a red flashlight turn on and move around. Shortly, a green one appears and does the same thing, as well as a blue one. As they move around the area, we can see the word "TELESCENE" over the flashlights. They then all face one direction as a little flash occurs, and "TELESCENE" turns white. The flashlights become still and are all facing one direction.

Variant: A shorter version exists.

Technique: CGI.

Audio: A horn tune with a two-note flute at first, but the strings rise in tune and it stops at a high note at the end, along with a one-note piano. The sounds of the flashlights are heard too.

Audio Variant: On the short version, the theme fades in with the high note strings, and the one-note piano is absent.

Availability: Can be seen on some TV series and films, such as Student Bodies and Big Wolf on Campus. It was first seen on The Myth of Male Orgasm.
