Form Records

Background
Form Holdings Limited is a publisher, retailer, and distributor of music, music videos, and direct-to-video programmes, headquartered in Singapore with offices in Malaysia, Taiwan, and Hong Kong. It was founded by Ang Choon Beng. The company is known for their educational programmes made in the 1990s, most notably the ABC English for Children series. As of 2023, only the Malaysian offices based in Kuala Lumpur are still in operation. Form Holdings Limited has since been repurposed as a holding company for a membrane manufacturer.

1st Logo (1992)
Visuals: On a sky background with moving clouds, a rainbow with multiple curves forms from the top right to the bottom left of the screen. Multiple colored musical notes move down the rainbow, and a yellow bird wearing headphones flies in from the top right of the screen and moves around the rainbow. After the bird flies around near the bottom left of the screen, the clouds settle, and the Form logo (an abstract pink "F" inside a white rounded square with a pink border, with a white vinyl record around the two horizontal lines of the "F", and small Chinese text reading "風格" next to the bottom of the letter) fades in, initially being surrounded by the bird. The bird flies back to the top right of the screen as the logo zooms in and slightly moves rightwards, as the background turns white. The following text then wipes in near the bottom of the screen: Times New Roman 風格音樂出版有限公司 Additional text, reading "（凡來教育制作组）" is located under the last three characters of the bigger Chinese text.

Technique: Limited cel animation, wiping effects, and possible chroma-keyed model work for the Form logo zooming in.

2nd Logo (1993-2017?)
Visuals: On a blue gradient background with cartoony moving clouds, a rainbow forms from the bottom left to the top right of the screen. The bird from before flies in from the right of the screen and chirps out a glowing quaver, followed by a beamed pink one, another normal quaver in green, and finally a  beamed and blue normal quaver, from the top to the left end of the rainbow respectively. The bird then flies to the right of the screen and pulls the Form logo (with its name in English) with a blue border into the screen with its mouth. The bird then flies away to the right of the screen, and the background turns white, leaving behind the logo. The logo moves to the left as it moves to the middle of the Y-axis, and the background slightly darkens as the following text in black wipes in below: Times New Roman 風格音樂出版有限公司
