Visuals:
 * Startup: On a black background, the Moon is shown moving from the near-center out to the top-right while a nebula glow appears at the center. The nebula soon fades into a spinning Earth globe with -colored landmasses. A -glowing star then appear at the top of the globe and begins forming a circular line around it, as the background fades into another background consisting of several spinning globe maps (including another copy of the -colored globe). The globe suddenly morphs into a  half-sphere which turns into the shape of an eye iris with a highlight near the top-right side. The formed logo slightly zooms in, and the black names of the company, "民視電視公" in Chinese and "FORMOSA TELEVISION" in English below, fade in below the logo.
 * Closedown: On the same moving globe background but tinted in cerise, a orchid-colored Earth globe with translucid sea masses, wireframes and darker-colored landmasses, comes out near the top and moves towards the center, before it is taken over by two forming parts of a sphere as it moves upward. Once it reaches the top of the screen, the parts of the sphere separate and move away while the iris shape of the logo is revealed. The star then appears forming the  circle outline around the iris, as the background changes to a dark blue color with a white glow and a ripple emerging near the bottom. Below the logo, the white texts "" and "" appear fading in.

Technique: CGI.

Audio:
 * Startup: A majestic brass fanfare along with an announcer saying the station's name.
 * Closedown: A soothing synth bell and piano theme along with an announcer reading the text on-screen.

Visuals: On a /dark red/ bar gradient background with white bar lights moving at the center, multiple golden rings and semi-rings are shown floating around the screen along with different Chinese words in different colors zooming in behind them, as well as other squares appearing behind everything else briefly shown quickly zooming in. After a second, the light-blue colored word "FORMOSA" zooms in at the center, and the rings and semi-rings quickly begin to assemble a segmented circular shape that quickly rotates and zooms into the screen, as the letters of "FORMOSA" suddenly move away and a shape forming a similar design to the golden circles shown before briefly forms in at the center. Meanwhile, the large golden text "" zooms and flips in to the top-center, and a glow flashes in, changing the background to a plain  one, with multiple multicolored squares and rounded square outlines scrolling at the bottom-center of the screen, and at the front of them being the FTV eye logo design at the center in red-orange with two copies of the ring outline rotating towards the sides while it slightly zooms in. Next to the logo is the names of the company, "民視電視公司" in Chinese and "FORMOSA TELEVISION" below, both in white. The logo turns white as it keeps zooming in, while a flare briefly appears at the front.

Technique: CGI.

Audio: Either a drum and bass theme, or a descending arpeggio leading to two cymbal sounds and a trance-sounding synth. Both versions of the music are accompanied by an announcer.
