Logo (1992-1995)

Visuals: On a space background with a planet and a moon, there is a shattering image that reveals the white word "Cosmos" in a futuristic font, with the "s" connected at the end, and the "C" connected at the top. The "Cosmos" logo turns into a circle that moves and zooms in. Then there is a new logo, which are the pieces of the red "C", the green "V" and the blue "H" flying and zooming out and settling into the center. The word "COSMOS VIDEO HOME" slides in from the bottom. The word "PRESENTA" in yellow flips in from a circular wrap effect and settles into the center below the entire logo.

Technique: Computer animation.

Audio: A triumphant synth fanfare with some chimes, gong and drumbeat sounds.
