Latina Television

Background: TBA

1st Logo (1983-1987)
Logo: On a black background, we see three lines go around the edge of the screen, in blue, red, and green. The lines shine as they form. An explosion occurs in the center of the screen, and a red "2" with a circle surrounding it appears.

Technique: The lines appearing, the explosion, and the "2" forming.

Music/Sounds: A short disco tune with a chorus singing (something in Spanish).

Availability: Unknown.

Legacy: The explosion and sudden appearance could get to one or two people.

2nd Logo (1989)
Nicknames: "Cheesy 2", "I Thought That Was Cyrillic!"

Logo: We see a black background with a blue pipe-like surface. The text "OAY4Y" (which is the name of the channel's signal) stretches and zooms into the screen, then zooms down as a "2" zooms in with two outlines of it moving side to side. Everything then places, as a ring zooms out and settles to surround the "2", and both the ring and "OAY4Y" text start to flip. The text disappears and the ring stops flipping.

Technique: Really cheap animation.

Music/Sounds: The 2nd Lorimar-Telepictures logo's synth brass fanfare.

Availability: Extinct.

Legacy: The really cheap animation and blatant use of the Lorimar-Telepictures music is unexpected for first time viewers.

3rd Logo (1990-1993)
Logo: We see an animation of a satellite dish receiving a signal. This image zooms out with a "dust trail" effect. This moves to the top left and eventually bottom right of the screen, and the logo appears at the top left of the screen (a blue 2 inside of a glass sphere with "frecuencia" on top and "Satelite" on bottom on an orange-yellow gradient background). The satellite dish from before appears on the bottom, and another copy of the logo as the first copy of the logo zooms into the screen.

Technique: Simple animation.

Music/Sounds: A chorus similar to that of the first logo, but at the end including an announcer saying "Transmitiendo a nivel nacional!" (Broadcasting nationwide!)

Availability: Might appear on Peruvian television occasionally.

4th Logo (1990-1993)
Logo: We see a CGI satellite move in from the bottom of the screen. It shoots a beam on a spinning globe (specifically being shot at Peru). Peru spins out of the globe and transforms into a "2", and the satellite moves out. A glass sphere appears around the 2. The word "frecuencia" appears, letter by letter, in a 3D gray font. "Satelite" appears on the bottom as well via "laser" effect.

Technique: Alright animation on the first part, but cheap animation on the second.

Music/Sounds: Same as before.

Availability: Probably extinct.

5th Logo (1993-1997)
Logo: We see a gold sphere being sliced by many rectangular segments, going vertically down. The sphere zooms out, and some slits are filled in to form a "2". Two green slivers appear above and below the logo, and the "eye" that is a result of this "blinks". "FRECUENCIA" zooms out, three white lasers shoot through the logo, and an orange "Latina" writes itself in on the bottom.

Technique: All of the animation, which is a major improvement from the previous logos.

Music/Sounds: A hip-hop theme with synth. A female (or male) announcer says "Frecuencia Latina! La imagen viva de un pais vivo! (unsure exactly of what he/she said)"

Availability: Unknown.
