YLE Cassette and Disc Service

1st Logo (1985-1991)
Visuals: On a background, there is a slightly modified version of the Yleisradio logo of the time (a  circle with 2 evergreen trees, a radio tower, a wavelength, and "RADIO" in a bold font, with this version omitting the lines on the tower and having an animated, more angular wavelength) encased in a white oblong. After a bit, the wavelength zooms in, detaches from the logo, and begins to glow as the background becomes black and the logo disappears. The wavelength then condenses into a diagonal line and 3 more are drawn in, the last one condensing into a spiral as it moves towards the left. When the logo finishes drawing itself, "Serif " fades in below.

Variant: A closing variant features the same logo animation, except that "Serif " fades in below instead of "Serif ".

Technique: Backlit cel animation.

Audio: A droning synth chime tune. This is actually a remix of the old interval signal heard in Yle's radio broadcasts.

Availability: Seen on tapes from the time period.

2nd Logo (1992-2000)
Visuals: Same as the first Yle logo, but the word "KASETTIKANAVA " appears below the logo along with "YLE". The logo then zooms to the top left corner as the warning screen scrolls up.

Technique: CGI.

Audio: Same as the first Yle logo.

Availability: It could be spotted in reprints of Finnish Rölli, Alfred J. Kwak and Moomins VHS releases.
