RCTI

Background: RCTI (Rajawali Citra Televisi) is a TV station that aired for the first time in 1989 (albeit only in Jakarta), while it launched in the whole country in 1994. In 2001, Media Nusantara Citra bought the TV station, resulting in some big changes to the TV station. Currently, its sister channels are MNCTV (formerly TPI), and GlobalTV (not to be confused with the Canadian TV channel of the same name.)

1st Logo (1989-1994)
i8eGAYMlt-4 mM1pM7ZS-pg

Logo: We see a big Indonesian flag at the beginning, revealing small, more flags at a blue BG. A trail of modified R swiftly zooms from right, creating an eagle R, which we zooms to the eagle's eye (which is actually, an earth), and we see some views from Indonesia. After that, the eagle R slides from the left, while some blue segments above creating "CTI" beside the eagle R. The whole logo rotates to center, while "KEBANGGAAN BERSAMA" and "MILIK BANGSA" below it slides from left. The whole BG turns black.

Variant: An evening version of this exists.

FX/SFX: Mostly real live action, but at the beginning and at the end of the logo are CGI.

Music/Sounds: A patriotic synthesized fanfare combined with generic piano tune.

Availability: Extinct, but can be found on RCTI's official YouTube account.

2nd Logo (1994-2000)

Logo:
 * Version 1: We see a satelite flies around the earth (much like the 1991 Fremantle International logo), in which we zooms to the earth, revealing, once again, live action views from Indonesia, but this time with people pointing their thumbs. We zoom to a TV, see some montages from movies/TV shows (notably Ultraman) zooming to us in a TV-tube form on a shady blue BG, and we're going to see live action again, but this time in a pedicab, with a man holding his portable TV, which we're going to see some montages again. Finally, we see a diver in the sea points his thumbs to us. Finally, the live action freeze-frames, followed by previous logo, with upper case. The texts below, instead of sliding in, smoothly fading in. And the BG turns black.
 * Version 2: We see Rumah Gadang, which we're going to see a family watching TV while pointing thumbs to us, we're going to see montages like previous version, but this time the montages are different, and again, another live action where we see another family on the beach, another montages, until we see Gelora Bung Karno, with two kids with a TV, see us and point their thumbs. Finally the camera pulls up, revealing the top of the stadion. Much like previous version, but instead of freeze-framed, it has a fade-out transition.

Variants:
 * On later years, each of the live action have it's own standalone logo, with it's own arrangement of the regular music.
 * Around 1998, most of the standalone versions were parodied by Project Pop, which is EVEN more cheaper than the regular versions.
 * Starting in 1996, some additional standalone logos were created exclusively. Those are "Grandma in a Traditional Market" and "People in the Restaurant".
 * There's also a variant exists without any live-action montages, as a 5-second bumper.

FX/SFX: Same as the end version of the previous logo. The Project Pop variants however, use a cheap 2D version of it.

Music/Sounds: Every versions had a 14-note tune, with a choir singing "RCTI OKEEEEEE!!!!!!". The arrangements may varies on each variants. The 5-second bumper uses the harp tune somehow resembles the regular music.

Availability: See the 1st logo.

3rd Logo (2000-2005)
Logo: After any standalone live-action montages from previous logo, a huge "RCTI" (this time, instead of segments, and it's modified to plain dark blue with red line across the whole logo) zooms out slowly from left to its position. As usual, the text would fade in after that.

Variant: On it's short version, the text would appeared by shrinking itself from stretching, while making a glimpse of light on it.

FX/SFX: The zoom-out, being less creative than it's predecessors.

Music/Sounds: See the 2nd logo. The short version uses either a different synth bell tune or the harp tune from previous logo.

Availability: Not as lucky as 1st and 2nd logos.

4th Logo (2002)
Logo: We see some people in a vibration effect with some texts, with a golden "13" comes out from nowhere, which suddenly swipe itself and zooms towards us. And we see live-action montage with ll the people wearing white clothes (which was somehow resembling a happy family), and the RCTI direcor Wisnu Hadi give a speech to us about the RCTI's 13th anniversary. After that, the small RCTI from the previous logo, along with big golden "13" above zooms out on a light sparkling blue background, with the text "KEBANGGAAN BERSAMA MILIK BANGSA" fades in below afterwards.

FX/SFX: Mostly live action.

Music/Sounds: A generic synth tune along with Wisnu Hadi's speech, followed by a male singing in Indonesia "13 YEARS RCTI, FOR YOU, FOREVER!!!!".

Availability: Was seen during the RCTI's 13th Anniversary back in 2002.

5th Logo (2005-2006)
Logo: Again, after any real live-action of the 2nd logo, a blue CG somehow resembles a cylinder forms itself and spins each other. And the 2000 RCTI logo, along with the slogan, revealed from inside of the cylinder CG. The logo would results in a freeze-frame.

Variant: As usual, a 5-second bumper version of this exists.

FX/SFX: Decent CGI.

Music/Sounds: See the 2nd logo.

Availability: See the 3rd and 4th logos.

6th Logo (2006-2009)
Logo: After any real-live action montages (from either the 2nd logo or a new montage), some white pieces (contains the parts of the RCTI logo) flies around and form the logo. After the logo being formed, the BG turns blue-outlined gradient white, the red line draws itself on the RCTI logo. Finally, the slogan rises below the logo.

Variants: There are 2 new montages:
 * Balloons: We see a boy being curious after he saw balloons floating thru a building and calling his friends to see it too. Another children crowd pick some blue balloons each, giving them one to adult people while running around the city (office, flower shop, traffic, etc.). We also see a truck full of blue balloons. The population of the running people grow increasingly (this time, including adults) ,and transportation contains people holding the balloons (including red balloons) and they all are finally jointed into Gelora Bung Karno. They let the balloons floating, forming the RCTI logo in the sky, and points a thumb on it.
 * Forgiveness: We see Rumah Gadang (and the condition is much the same as the Rumah Gadang version of the 2nd logo, but now renewed) and we see a family got down from their car, take their purses and on their way to their family home (in where they're all gathered together). During their walk, there are people surrounding (and helping) them until they arrived to that home. Once they arrived, their family greet and overrun them. Finally, all of them face a small TV and point their thumbs (the TV airs a concert).

FX/SFX: The forming of the logo.

Music/Sounds: See the previous logo, except with new montages, as they used a new arrangement for the theme.

Availability: See the 1st and 2nd logo. Made a surprise appearance on a 2014 episode of Dahsyat, as an RCTI's 25th Anniversary special.

7th Logo (2008-2015)
Logo: On a white background, we see the same RCTI logo from the previous logos, with it's slogan "KEBANGGAAN BERSAMA MLIK BANGSA" below the logo. The logo shines slowly with a slight zoom out.

Variants:
 * Euro 2008: The standalone Gelora Bung Karno montage from the 2nd logo. The screen transitions into the RCTI logo (on the right, with the Euro 2008 logo on the left).
 * FIFA South Africa 2010: We see a man kicking a ball to the air, until another guy from the top gets it and do a salto kick (a la Pele). Three men points their thumbs to the guy, and he smiles. We pan to the right, revealing the ocean. The RCTI logo zooms out and the slogan fades in.
 * Kite: Children running around the field while playing kites, ends with all children (except one boy) points their thumbs to the boy.

FX/SFX: The logo shining and zooming.
