Background: This was a production sub-division of the Fox Broadcasting Company, originally following in the footsteps of Fox Television Stations Productions
1st Logo
(1989-1994)
Nickname: "The Swirling Smoke" ("The Swirling Smoke #2")
Logo: A spread-out, lowercase, metallic-colored word "f o x l a b" sits still and fixed over a dark background, while thick trailing slivers of "smoke" swirl from behind the letters.
The motion of the swirl is much faster than its FTSP predecessor.
FX/SFX: The swirling trail of smoke.
Music/Sounds: A one-note synth theme.
Availability: Extinct.
Scare Factor: Low - it could be startling for those who notice the similarity to the FTSP logo.
2nd Logo
(1994-2003)
Nicknames: "The Lab", "Turning CGI Searchlights"
Logo: A grayish green-colored tower structure pans down from above on a black background, revealing the words:
written in the usual "Fox" font, with two electro-beams standing at the edges of the "L" and the "B" emitting sparks of electricity from side to side, then the structure rapidly zooms out in its proper slanted "20th Century Fox" format position. The tower is now in gold, surrounded by a dark blue sky, with thick, bellowing, fast-moving clouds, (similar to the Fox Television Studios logo, onlythe cloud movement is faster and more defined). A jolt of electricity moves up the tower, similar to that of a Jacob's ladder. The byline "A News Corporation Company" fades in underneath.
FX/SFX: The zoom-out and electricity effect.
Music/Sounds: A dramatic choir-like sound with sparking electricity.
Availability: Extinct; this is the rarest Fox logo ever. It appeared on the extremely short-lived 1995 Fox TV series What's So Funny? and a standard shorter version of the Fox Lab Tower (starting from the zoom-back) is featured on the short-lived 2003 syndicated series Classmates, among other shows.
Scare Factor: Medium. The jolt of electricity plus the t-storm clouds can unnerve a lot of people.
