The MTV channel logos (MTV, Hits, Club, and Classic) have been updated on Foxtel. Here’s the new MTV one, the rest are just the logo on coloured squares.

[cillbill]

I found these MTV logos on Foxtel’s website from 2018. Wikipedia says the MTV Music logo didn’t change until 2019, and I can’t find anything about the MTV Dance logo. Does anyone know if or when they were used?

Okay the Dance logo was definitely used. I just don’t know when it changed. The Wayback Machine says it changed sometime in February.

Foxtel

[One last look at [V], Max & CMC - (30.06.2020)] Here’s a brief video I filmed earlier this evening of [V], Max and CMC. The overall quality is pretty crap (as are all camera-to-TV recordings, tbh), but unfortunately, this is the only way you can record/upload Foxtel content now. The in-browser version of Foxtel Go doesn’t allow you to record anything with a screen-capturing program, which is a huge pain. Still, it’s better than nothing I suppose.

I like these more than the original yellow, red, blue one.

Created in partnership with The Jed Foundation and executive produced by Sheila Nevins for MTV Documentary Films, the film seeks to share the uplifting message of hope, recovery and the importance of treatment and honest conversation.

Locally, MTV will collaborate with Musicians Making A Difference (MMAD), the Australian charity that exists to change young lives through music. MMAD uses the power of music, dance & mentoring to inspire young people to make their lives remarkable.

MTV Is set to exclusively premiere the annual MMAD music video, This Song Is For You on Friday, 8 October across the suite of MTV music channels.

And head to mtv.com.au for personal essays from young Aussies on mental health and the ways our writers are checking in on themselves this month.

Is that a new MTV Channel? Foxtel could add it on Channel 807.

[observa]

Given the first few frames start with Club MTV specifically and then cross it out, I’d say it’s replacing Club for the month

[Seriously]

For the month or forever?

Club MTV must not rate/sell well?

[bacco007]

I know the ABC runs “Ausmusic Month” in November - but is that an industry led thing or an ABC thing? Could explain why MTV are doing something similar

[observa]

It’s an industry initiative.

It’s also why the ARIA awards fall in November.
