RecordTV (Brazil)

Background: RecordTV (Portuguese: [ʁeˈkɔɾ teˈve]) is a Brazilian free-to-air television network, founded in 1953 by Paulo Machado de Carvalho, also founder of Rádio Record. Currently it is owned by Brazilian businessman Edir Macedo, who is also founder and bishop of the Universal Church of the Kingdom of God.

1st Logo (1953-1965) Logo: Over a white background, we see a train passing by. A tiger is seen driving it (that tiger was the mascot of the network until early 70's). He pull the cord twice, which makes a whistle train sound, and the whistle sound like saying Canal 7 (Channel 7), then the camera zooms to the sky, which shows a giant compass. Two giant letters, T and V, surround the compass. The name TV RECORD appear at the bottom.

FX/SFX:

Music/Sounds: Only ukulele-like sounds in the backgroud, the whistle sound, and a woman's voice saying: ''Canal 7! Se você quer ter sempre o melhor, veja Record!'' (Channel 7! If you want to have always the best, see Record!).

Availability: Mostly extinct.

Scare Factor: Low to none. Unlike many logos from this decade, this logo seems do be less scary than it seems, but some people might not think the same.

2nd Logo (1982-1986) Logo: In a blue background, a rainbow forms, and below it, rays of the same color, shoot out and leaves the RECORD name, gold-colored.

FX/SFX/Cheesy Factor: The animation, that seems to be created with Scanimate, is quite simple and poor.

Music/Sounds: A trumpet-like sound, is played when the rainbow is formed. Then it turns into violin-like sound, when the RECORD name appears.

Availability: Seems to be very rare.

Scare Factor: Low to none. The animation seems to be not that great, but not that scary.

3rd Logo (1986-1989) Logo: The RecordTV logo at the time, keeps passing by multiple times at the screen. Then, it appears and stay stocked, while the RECORD name is below it.

FX/SFX/Cheesy Factor: Starting by the logo, which is very strange, and by the animation that seems to be verry choppy.

Music/Sounds: A unknown weird sound keeps playing, while the logo floats around. At the end, a ringbell-like sound plats.

4th logo (1989-1990) Logo: Under some bars, the RECORD name in gold, floats to the horizont, while the RecordTV symbol at the time, floats by the inverse direction. The two eventually merge together.

FX/SFX/Cheesy Factor: Like the previously logo, the animation was seem to be strange, and it have a choppy animation at the time.

Music/Sounds: A violin theme plays by, during the float moment, when the symbol and name join, a trumpet-like sound plays.

Music/Sounds: * 1990-1991: A trumpet music is heard, while an announcer says: ''Jogo Duro, quarta, 8:50 da noite. Novembro. Record, a nova rede nacional''.
 * 1991-1992: A different trumpet music is heard, and at the end, the three discs spin to the camera, and come back into its positons.
