1st Logo

(1985-1986)

Note: This video also contains the 2nd, 3rd and 4th ID's in this page.

Logo : On a mountain photo, we see a red "8" shrinking and expanding. Once it stops, it disappears (instantly) and the orange words "LV 82 CANAL 8 TV San Juan" appear rising from one of the mountains. This text also disappears to shown other rising texts showing the stations names and signals ("REPETIDORAS", "CANAL 6 JACHAL", "CANAL 6 BARREAL", and "CANAL 8 CALINGASTA").

3rd Logo

(1987-1991)

Logo : On a blue grid floor with some mountains at the end (in fact, the same background from a Telenorte ID of 1992), a golden "8" from before moves to the center, while the words "LV 82", "CANAL" and "SAN JUAN" moves to the sides of the "8", while "TV" rotates and places inside the number. Below appear the stations names zooming and sliding.

4th Logo

(1991-199?)

Logo : While ascending through a antenna of red and white bars, 3 tricolor ribbons are also moving to the upper part. Then, we rotate around the antenna (the upper part can be seen: some blue pieces). Once the ribbons reach the upper part of the tower, these move out of the screen. The stations "6 jachal", "6 barreal", "8 calingasta", "6 iglesia" and "11 valle fertil" appear sliding in curves around it. The ribbons re-appear, this time moving through a landscape with some mountains. Some of these mountains morphs into human faces. While this happens, we move to the moon, which then morphs into the Canal 8 logo from the time, while the text "CANAL" appear above and "San Juan Rep. Argentina" below.

FX/SFX : A complex 3D animation, starting from the tricolor ribbons, the tower, the sliding station names, the landscape with the faces, and the moon morphing into the Canal 8 logo, with the rest of the text.

Music/Sounds : A futuristic, repeating synth tune, with the announcer saying the info of the channel and their stations.
