Radioteleviziunea Romaniei

Background
Radioteleviziunea Romaniei (RTR) is the public broadcasting corporation in Romania. It was launched in 1957. The company probably had no logo on production until 1995.

1st logo (1995-1996)
Nickname: Cheesy RTR, Cheesy CGI RTR, 90s RTR

Logo: On a black background, the golden 1992 RTR logo on it appears from the bottom of the screen and turns to face us, and as it does so, we can see a white light shining onto the logo. The camera moves away to make room for the stacked words "RADIOTELEVIZIUNEA ROMANIEI" and "Prezintă" in white, which flips into view from behind the shield and settles underneath it. The camera then zooms toward "RADIOTELEVIZIUNEA ROMANIEI" and "Prezintă" and moves in between the two words and past them.

FX/SFX: None.

Music/Sounds: A synthesized brass fanfare which used from the RTR1 theme.

Availability: Rare. This logo only appeared in some films.

Editor's Note: None.

2nd logo (2000-2012)
Nickname: Still RTR, 90s RTR II, Millennium RTR

Logo: On a white background, the black 1992 RTR logo is seen. Below it is "RADIOTELEVIZIUNEA ROMANIEI".

FX/SFX: None.

Music/Sounds: A majestic short jingle that has a 4-note violin, after by a gong sound. This jingle was also used for commercials starting in 1999.

3rd logo (2012-2020)
Nickname: Time-Reflection RTR, RTR Box

Logo: A morning sky background slowly dims and reveals itself to be the current RTR logo (the "RTR" with the box part from the 2001-2012 RTR1 logo seen in white, but the word "TR" disconnected together and in a different font and filled the box in shiny black), zooming out and rotating, albeit against a space background. Once the logo reaches the center of the screen, the words "RADIOTELEVIZIUNEA ROMANIEI" fades in.
