Nippon Golden Network

Background
Nippon Golden Network was a cable television network specialized in broadcasting Japanese programs in Hawaii, founded by Dennis M. Ogawa. The network currently has three channels, NGN2 (Japanese programs from NHK via TV Japan) and NGN3 (subtitled, classic and modern Japanese movies). NHK World is broadcast in partnership with NGN as NGN4.

(1987?-)
Visuals: On a black background, the words "Oswald" and "Oswald" slide between each other whilst shining. It then crossfades to the same BG with "Oswald" in the middle, which then we start zooming towards the "Arial", causing it to crossfade to the same BG with "NGN" zooming out whilst settling to the middle. "Oswald" fades in front of it afterwards.

Variant: A remade, clean version was made in later years. The movements are smoother, the shines are represented by lens flares, and the texts are tinted in.

Technique: Motion-controlled animation. Computer animation in the later years.

Audio: A twinkling oriented synth theme with an announcer saying the following: "The best in Japanese entertainment direct from Japan. The Nippon Golden Network, NGN TV".

Availability: Shown during programming at the time.
