TV 4

TV 4 is Yoshi's Island fourth terrestrial channel, after Independent Sociality Television. It was founded in 1984.

1984-1992


Started transmissions in September 5, 1984.

1992-1997


This simplified logo began to appear in one colour instead of five. The on-screen identity was designed by Lambie-Nairn. It showed filmed footage of nature (i.e., forests, waterfalls, sunsets, waves, autumn, stars, etc.) and the logo fading in seconds later (surprising, with mirrored footage) and a drop shadow appearing underneath.

1997-2004


The logo was completely overhauled. The lines were removed for the first time, the logo became a ribbon of different shades of red. It was designed by Scandinavian Design Group. The on-air look was designed in-house, where the logo was formed by surrounding curtains and light waves of warm colours, usually in an animated maroon gradient background.

In 2002, Gédéon designed an updated graphics package.

2004-2009


An updated logo was launched in 2004, with the 20 anniversary of TV4, which simplified the logo into just one colour, and removing the slant.

2009-present


The logo was slightly modified. One part was filled with a darker shade. It was designed by Scandinavian Design Group (again?!).and the graphic design (as of 2009) was created by Dallas Sthlm.

Two years later, new on-screen graphics were designed by ISO Design.

2014 onwards (tentative)


It was announced in November 1, 2013 that TV 4 would use this logo by New Year's Day of 2014.
