Nickname: "The Eye"
Logo: On a black background, there is a TV tube screen with a silver border. "Sogitec" is seen in the bottom with a red line next to the G. An silver ball falls down and the camera zooms in as "Sogitec" zooms in. The ball bumps onto the screen, changing the static to color bars and the border blue. The ball bounces up and down 2 more times and the camera rotates and zooms in onto the ball. The ball then opens up, revealing an aquamarine eye with a gray cornea. The ball closes and goes through the screen forming a quarter rainbow colored, 75% gray circle with a line dividing the ball. The bars disappear and the colored part of the ball rotates to form a C. "CITEL" zooms out in a futuristic font with the C the same as the logo.

2nd Logo
(1997?-)
Nickname: The Cartoony Letters"
Logo: On a flowing gold-like background, 2 cerulean blobs come on screen and merge together. A fancy lowercase E rotates and lands into the blob. The blobs form a rectangle shape. Other letters fly into the box forming cutouts in the box. A laser draws out an E, forming "Citel". More letters dance their way to under the box as the background becomes white. The letters form "VIDEO" in a spaced out font with the D backwards. The D rotates around to fix the word. The logo shines and "EDV 82" fades in.
FX/SFX: The blobs. Nice CGI by haxe4 and Mastery.
Music/Sounds: A triumphant fanfare, accompanied by the suction sound when blobs merge.
Availability: Current. Appears on releases by the company.
