Logo:On a blue-to-dark blue gradient background, 5 silver horizontal bars fly out from the left (just like a gate closing) and position themselves on the screen. As soon as they reach the middle, a white upside-down triangle made of lines, with a red-to-gold gradient abstract "34" and below it a red-and-white "WOSU-TV" on it, fly in from the right of the screen and position themselves on the center of the screen. Afterwards, a white "Columbus, Ohio" in a plain font appears at the bottom of the screen. Then two lights wipe across the silver bars on which the 34 is positioned, as if emanating from the logo.
Variants:A shorter ID had just the still of the shiny bars and the "34" logo. And Lancaster's voice either went:
- "WOSU-TV/34 in Columbus, and WPBO-TV/42 in Portsmouth."
- "Public broadcasting from the Ohio State University, this is WOSU-TV/34 in Columbus, and WPBO-TV in Portsmouth."
- "You're watching WOSU-TV/34 in Columbus, and WPBO-TV/42 in Portsmouth."
- When the station was 34 years old in 1990, instead of "Columbus, Ohio", appearing at the bottom of the screen, the phrase "34 is 34!" flipped up on the bottom of the triangle. Lancaster's VO went: "Celebrating 34 years of public broadcasting--WOSU-TV/34 in Columbus, in WPBO-TV/42 in Portsmouth. TV-34... is 34!"
FX/SFX: The silver bars slamming on the screen, the "34" logo flying in, the light wipe across the bars.
Music/Sounds: A warping synth tune, ending with 4 synth-chime notes. Also featured is the voice of station personality Boyce Lancaster: "Public broadcasting from the campus of the Ohio State University, this is WOSU-TV/34 in Columbus, and WPBO-TV/42 in Portsmouth."
Availability: Seen on local programs of WOSU, like Just Jazz. Also used as a station ID.
Editor's Note: None.
