Logo (June 13, 2003)


Visuals: The logo starts off with a close-up of the letter "R" in black, which rapidly flashes in the standard and latin fonts on a white-ish background, also flashing colors. The "R" zooms out, revealing the "R" on a filmstrip with a black circle outside of the "R" with lines on the left, right, top, & bottom of the circle. Still flashing to the 2 fonts, the "R" zooms back again, this time, located at the center of the filmstrip. It flipped itself horizontally while flashing, and a second later, the number "4" in black is seen for less than a second before switching back to the aforementioned letter. Then the number "3", also in black is shown for a split second before switching again back to the letter. Again, another number, this time, a black "2" is shown for a split second before it does the same thing as the previous numbers. As this is going on, the screen becomes brighter and the letter zooms in even closer. Once everything turns into a tan color, a smaller version of the background for the "R" (or basically a square) is shown. With that, the text "RETAGUARDIA" and "cursive" appears with the square and shakes. Finally, the background becomes less shaky and the logo ends in a filmstrip cut.

Technique: 2D computer animation.

Audio: Filmstrip noises, as well as beeping noises when the numbers show up, getting higher pitched as each makes the sound.

Availability: This was only seen on Los Debutantes.
