Television Corporation of Singapore

Background
Television Corporation of Singapore was the public TV broadcaster of Singapore during 1994 to 2001. In 1999 the company was acquired by the newly-formed MediaCorp and consequently morphed into the company's own TV sub-branch 2 years after.

1st Logo (1990s-????)
|EjkI8R8lr7E}}

Logo: We see an aquamarine liquid flowing through the screen, with shadows of the three letters "Times New Roman" moving around. Three shadows of the respective letters then meet on the top half of the screen, in a form where the "Times New Roman" is at the left, and the "Times New Roman" is surrounded by the "Times New Roman". The background darkens as the three letters lighten up with different colors (with the "Times New Roman" becoming light blue, the "Times New Roman" red and the "Times New Roman" green), and the byline "Times New Roman" fades in below.

FX/SFX: The liquid and the shadows, which must be a live-action/CGI fusion technique.

Music/Sounds: A droning synth theme which slowly evolves into a down-tempo beat, ending with a 3-note resonant synth.

Availability: Probably extinct, but might also appear occasionally on Singaporean TV works from the time.

Editor's Note: None.

2nd Logo (2000-2001)
|UXuUzKqe_NU 7rUP7BMGTmY}}

Logo: Two lights (blue and red) flash in on a black background and morph into the "Times New Roman" and "Times New Roman" of the previous logo, which spin into view while the "Times New Roman" zooms in, completing the logo. The company name blurs in next to the logo, with the byline "ALL RIGHTS RESERVED" and the website URL appearing below. So far, only English and Chinese language versions of the logo are known to exist.

FX/SFX: Simple CGI.

Music/Sounds: A breathy synth bell ambient score. On most cases, it used the closing theme of the show.

Availability: Was used on TV shows from the early 2000s before the company's transition into MediaCorp. The logo appears with music on Crimewatch 2000.

Editor's Note: None.
