1st Logo (1994-Early 1996)
.png)
Logo: On a dark background, a flipping image of a CD flying to become a semicircle shaped CD. The CD turns into a semicircular red sun, forming the CGI version of the 1987-1995 The Discovery Channel logo.
Technique: The CD flying andbecoming the sun and the Discovery Channel logo appearing.
Music/Sounds: Same as the Discovery Channel Video Library logo.
Availability: Seen on Operation Weather Disaster and Big Job.
2nd Logo (March 31, 1996-1999)
.png)
Logo: On a dark background, we see texts in different languages appearing fast. The languages follow in this order:
- Spanish: "DESCUBRIENDO EL MUNDO" (Discovering the World)
- Arabian: "تعرفي على العالم حولك" (Learn about the World around You)
- French: "REGARDS SUR LE MONDE" (Views on the World)
- Portuguese: "DESCOBRINDO O MUNDO" (Discovering the World)
- German: "AUF ENTDECKUNGSKURS" (On discovery course)
- Hebrew: "העולם אצלך בבית" (The World in your house)
- Italian: "SCOPRIRE E CONOCERE" (Discover and know)
- Indonesian: "JENDELA DUNIA ANDA" (Your Window on the World)
- Norweigan: "SLIPP VERDEN INN" (Release the World In)
- Japanese: "探険、 ふしきの世界"
- Danish: "LÆR VERDEN AT KENDE" (Getting the World to know)
- Dutch: "BRENGT DE WERELD BIJ JE THUIS" (Bring the World at your home)
- English: "EXPLORE YOUR WORLD"
After we see "EXPLORE YOUR WORLD", we see five mulberry circles of ascendent size surrounding "O" of "EXPLORE", and we see a red dot moving on the fourth circle (that represents an electron). Suddenly "EXPLORE YOUR WORLD" disappears and the circles become a CD, then a compass, and finally the Earth and forms the Discovery Channel logo. Finally, we see MULTIMEDIA appearing below it with a red line behind the globe (that is rotating).
Technique: It's a CGI logo.
Music/Sounds: A dark piano melody, followed by some technological sounds (i.e. beeps and synth sizzles), which ends with a 3-note synth fanfare.
Availability: It can be seen on Savage: The Ultimate Quest for Survival, Bizantine: The Betrayal, Evolution: The Game of Intelligent Life and the Spanish game El Taller de Inventos (The Workshop Inventions).
