Background
In 2020, after the ViacomCBS merger, CBS Global Distribution Group gained oversight of Viacom International Studios and renamed itself to ViacomCBS Global Distribution Group. In 2021, VIS' distribution arm integrated into CBS Studios International.
Logo (2021-2022)
.png)
Visuals: On a dark blue background, the text "VIACOMCBS" wipes in letter-by-letter, as a slightly brighter blue bar wipes in below it. Then a tri-colored line in 3 shades of blue moves from the left side of the screen to the right, making "VIACOM" a brighter blue color and "CBS" white. The bar below the "VIACOMCBS" wordmark takes the same color as the "VIACOM" text, with scrolling teal green and darker blue squares on its far left side, and "Global Distribution Group" appears on it. The logo zooms in and gets slightly closer to the screen.
Later Variant: A circle appears in the center of the screen. It then moves slightly to the right and morphs into a "C" with the rest of the letters in "VIACOMCBS" emerging from it. Then, the blue line wipes in from the middle of the screen while "Global Distribution Group" appears on it, similar to the Microsoft PowerPoint "Peek In" effect.
Technique: 2D animation.
Audio: None for the earlier variant.
Audio Variant: For the later variant, 2 drum beats are heard when the circle appears, followed by 4 synth notes when the ViacomCBS logo forms.
Availability:
- Seen on programmes internationally distributed by the company, such as A Million Little Things.
- It is also seen on H&I's airings of Walker, Texas Ranger.
- Strangely, this logo also plasters either the 1990 or 1995 Paramount Television logos on the Frasier complete series Blu-ray set, which is distributed by Paramount Home Entertainment (under the CBS Home Entertainment banner).
