Télé Zaïre

1st Logo (1980s)


Logo: On a white background, a map of DRC in green with copies of the map is shown as a white line with 3 circle outlines at the center (also having copies of it) is shown going to the map. Once the line is done, the text

OFFICE

ZAIRIOS

in white fades next to the line. Then it fades to a river in DRC with a strange-looking shape in orange and yellow (including the line with the circle outlines from before) as the text "DE RADIODIFFUSION" slides to the orange shape. The background fades to a load of newspapers scattered all over the place. Then the text "ET DE TELEVISION" slides to the shape. Then everything fades to a dark yellow background with the DRC map in pink. Then the text "ozrt" zooms out to reveal the text in pink and the map in green. Then it fades to a black background with the "Justice Paix Travail" seal at the center. Then it fades to the Zaire flag waving on a black background. The text

élé

 tz aïre

in yellow wipes in as the flag waves.

Technique: 2D animation, presumably done in Scanimate, and live action for the footage.

Music/Sounds: A trumpet theme, specifically the anthem of Zaire known as La Zaïroise.

2nd Logo (1990s-1997)


Logo: On a purple space background, the Zaire circle in its flag zooms out as 3 spheres get to the center. Then the text "ozrt" gets in front of the spheres, leaving chrome trail. It goes static for 16 seconds before fading.

Technique: 2D animation.

Music/Sounds: A quiet flute theme, specifically the anthem of Zaire known as La Zaïroise.
