On September 1, 1998, GMA Network simplified its rainbow logo by removing the satellite in its logo, along with briefly modifying the rainbow itself and the GMA word logo.
Along with introducing a now-iconic ident of GMA with a blue sky background, it introduced a music video a few months later with the revamped jingle of its Where You Belong! Campaign.
Music video
The music video features GMA’s mascot Steve from Startalk, also known as GMA Boy. The music video includes GMA Boy rapping and roaming around the streets of Metro Manila, TV sets with the GMA logo scattered and layered around the streets, an eatery, a fishball vendor with a black GMA t-shirt as GMA’s logo sticker falls over the condiments, GMA’s OB van, Bitoy’s World characters in a jeep, a security guard, a scene where a stranger passing by a street full of TV as Michael V. shows up. Other eyewitnesses also recall two people thumbing up and the show Eat Bulaga! featured in the music video, along with a basketball scene. The last part includes the GMA boy descending from a tricycle plastered with the GMA logo.[1][2]
Said to have lasted from 1998 to 2000, it was directed by Raul Ona.[3] The jingle is partially found online.[4]
