Hello there! I'm Lolodachi. I'm a French guy that was, at one point in time, a user on the WikiFoundry iteration of the CLG Wiki, back when I was a real cringe-inducing teen. Gosh, I sure don't miss that version of myself... The only worthwhile thing I did at the time was bringing the Sony Music Département Vidéo logo to the wiki when it wasn't being an obnoxious cringefest of a teenager. Oh well. I'm a logo fan since I can't remember. You must admit there's something fascinating when talking about how sound and motion can create such a strong brand identity for a studio! There are even logos I unironically call masterpieces with how beautiful they are, THX Amazing Life, the EuropaCorp logo and the current StudioCanal logos being prime examples.

It's why, for a project of mine called Septimo, which is basically a YouTube channel full of various shows, I wanted to create something of a Culture Pub (a French TV show about commercials) but for logos in the form of thematic Top 10 rankings with a bit of opinionated reviews (but nothing like Scare Factors and such, these I don't miss) with a few skits here and there to make for a fun watch.

One of these topics however prove to be difficult to find logos for. I already have found the 10 logos for some of the themes I want to talk about (like cheesy logos, scary logos, console intros, Russian home video logos and Spanish logos). The topic that I struggle to find logos to cover for is: weird logos. I'm talking Helltimate Studio with its "that one video you stumble upon when you're lost deep into YouTube", Zombastic Productions for similar reasons, Hikon for how trippy it is, Klasky-Csupo's Splaat and SuperVideo for the downright psychedelic imagery.

So that's why I'm asking you folks for some logos you know of that have bizarre imagery or sounds, logos that left you wondering how did someone on Earth came up with such a concept, and what did your eyes, ears or both just witnessed.

Also, I'm glad to be back on the AVID Wiki, love how it evolved into something like this, factual, professionnal and encyclopedic. And that's one cool new logo too! By the way, didn't knew the wiki had two mascots. Ace and Vivi both look adorable!

Thanks to whoever took the time to read the wall of text I've just published, and I can't wait to see the weird logos you people know of! Bye for now! Lolodachi

For me, has to be the DEF II Variant of the BBC 2 Copper Cut Out 1991 ident. Please don't send me an image of it. I'll have nightmares. If you don't know of DEF II, It was a strand on BBC 2 directed at a teenage audience.
