The logo animation for Doordarshan, India's first public broadcast network. The logo was designed by Devashish Bhattacharya, an alumnus of the National Institute of Design. RL Mistry, another NID student, did the animation for the original symbol. Mistry says he worked on Bhattacharyya’s sketches. He made copies of them and then shot them under a camera, rotating them till it reached the final form, or what is known in popular parlance, as ‘the DD eye’.
