Logo descriptions by Matt Williams, James Stanley BarrBarr, and Nicholas Aczel

Background: This is a documentary production arm of 20th Century Fox Television, Inc., established in 2001 by News Corporation. Although 20th Century Fox has produced documentaries since 1987, a unique logo wasn't used until 2001, when this production arm was formed.
(2001- )
Nicknames: "Dark CGI Searchlights", "The Star Tower"
Logo: We see the Fox Television Studios logo. Suddenly a bolt of lightning crashes down on the logo, and when the light clears the logo has changed: the sky has cleared again, and we see the Fox structure with a giant star on top of the stack and the words:
in the lines below.
FX/SFX: The stormy sky, the lightning, the logo switch.
Cheesy Factor: Nice-looking CGI for the most part as with other current Fox logos, but the logo transition from Fox Television Studios to Foxstar Productions is very jarring and unprofessional.
Music/Sounds: Same as Fox Television Studios, accompanied by a lightning strike.
Availability: Seen on documentaries produced by Fox such as AMC’s Backstory and A&E’s Biography (post-2001 episodes), as well as many documentaries from The Travel Channel.
Scare Factor: Minimal to medium; the choppy transition between logos and the scary "star" structure will probably catch more than a few off-guard, especially if you’ve never seen it before.
