.png)
Visuals: On a purple/black gradient background, a circular logo design is shown consisting of a C on the left, a sliced lowercase I at the center, and a sliced, mirrored C at the right. Under the logo, a surface consisting of red, green and blue lines is seen. The text:
OFICINA
CENTRAL DE
INFORMACION
flies in at the right.
Technique: Computer animation.
Audio: From the partial footage available at the moment, part of a spacy synth theme can be heard.
Availability: It was used at the end of cadena broadcasts during the Jaime Lusinchi period. Currently, only a partial 2 second clip of this logo exists online.
2nd Logo (1992-1994)
.png)
Visuals: The Venezuelan coat of arms is shown over a black background with a white 3D trail at the front. The screen zooms out as the trail flips into the text "OFICINA CENTRAL DE INFORMACIÓN", sandwiched by two lines.
Technique: CGI.
Audio: "Cat Tales" by Jean-Luc Ponty with an announcer saying the name.
Availability: Seen at the beginning and end of national cadenas (joint broadcasts) by the Venezuelan government during the period, with the majority of them not being preserved online in full.
3rd Logo (1994-1999)
.png)
Visuals: A flash occurs on a dark blue background, revealing a golden "OCi" rotating into view, with the "O" and "C" overlapping and the "Ci" connected together from the bottom of the "C" (causing the "i" to look like a J). Then a ribbon of the Venezuelan flag then moves to the left side of the screen before stopping, as a golden version of the Coat of Arms fades in zooming out lightly; a golden bar with "Oficina Central de Informacion" zooms out at the bottom while the elements settle.
Technique: CGI.
Audio: A majestic fanfare.
Availability: Same as before. This was used during Rafael Caldera's second term of presidency.
