Logo: On a black background, an upside-down triangle rises from the bottom of the screen. The triangle has an owl’s face inside of it. It zooms out a bit, revealing the words “ARGOS FILMS” underneath it. The logo fades out, with the owl’s bright yellow eyes hanging around a bit longer than the rest of the face.
Technique: Simple 2D animation.
Music/Sounds: None.
Availability: Rare. Seen on a few French films of the time of distribution, such as Fantastic Planet. It was also available on reprints of pre-1970s short movies and documentaries.
