Visuals: On a dark blue background, an abstract "α" (the lowercase Greek letter of alpha) draws in on the left. When it is finished, the white word "alpha" wipes in to the right in a wide font.
Variant: A variant showing the print logo exists. On a dark blue background, the phrase "FOR YOUR FURTHER ENJOYMENT" in yellow is seen at the top, followed by the Alpha Video print logo. It has the yellow word "alpha", stylized in a blocky font, and the alpha letter can be seen in a box above the "alpha", as well as the text "video" in a yellow outline to the right of it. "PRESENTS" in yellow can be seen below the logo as well.
Technique: Traditional animation. A still image for the variant.
Audio: Telex by Derek Scott, a harsh, droning synth tune with synthetic clunks and beeps.
Audio Variants:
- For the variant, the logo is silent.
- There also exists a silent version of the standard logo.
