Background
CKCO-TV is a CTV affiliate in Kitchener, Ontario.
1st Logo (1992-1994)
.png)
Logo: Inside a translucent cylinder, we see the CTV logo in the top right corner and on the left, a stack of vertical lines in a near-spiral pattern. The camera pans out to see 3 gold squares (two small squares on the top left and bottom right corners of a larger square) with CKCO-TV in gold next to it. The shape and letters turn and place themselves in the center at a slight angle as three streaks in CTV's colors circle around the cylinder. A few more streaks fly around or up the cylinder as the CTV logo and lines continue to rotate inside it.
Technique: CGI.

Availability: Extinct. Found on a CKCO-TV recording from 1993.
