WESA

Background: This was the VAS affilate from Tallahassee, Florida.

1st Logo/ID

(1971-1978)

Logo: We see a outlined red "W" drawing on a black background. After that, "WESA PRESENTS" fades in below.

FX/SFX: 2D animation.

Music/Sounds: A 5-note Moog synth tune when the "W" draws and a violin note when "WESA PRESENTS" fades in.

Availability: Hard to find. It still appears on CHASEUP reruns on VAS Classics.

Scare Factor: Low, the synth may get some, but it would get worse on the next logo...

2nd Logo/ID

(1978-1987)

Nicknames: "The Other W of Doom", "W From Heck"

Logo: We see on a dark blue background the chyron words "WESA" in red zooming out fastly, then flashes, turning to "Tallahassee". On two seconds, the words "dissolves", forming the same "W" from the previous logo and "PRESENTS", which were also in red.

FX/SFX: Scanimate animation.

Cheese Factor: Very high, because the effects were very typical (even for the late 70's).

Music/Sounds: A loud ascending synth note when "WESA" zooms out, then a loud banging sound when the words turns to "Tallahassee", then a whoosh when the words dissolves, followed by a 2-note synth tune.

Availability: A bit common than the previous logo, but still rare. Seen on episodes of Space Traveling and CHASEUP on VAS Classics.

Scare Factor: Nightmare, because the animation and the music/sound effects scares some people, especially if they're expecting the 1st logo and end up with this. However, it's lower for these who are used to seeing it.

3rd Logo/ID

(1987-1997)

Logo: On a dark background with aurora lights, we see a 3D square with a "W" zooming out. Then, "WESA" and "tallahassee florida" fades in slowly.

FX/SFX: The aurora lights, the zooming and the fading.

Cheese Factor: None, way better than before.

Music/Sounds: The closing theme of the show.

Availability: Uncommon, seen on reruns of Dough Fun, Night Stories, and many shows.

Scare Factor: None, see Cheese Factor.
