Futurikon is a French independent company founded in 1996 by Phillippe Delarue. The company is known for The Ugly Duckling and Me, Dragon Hunters, and Minuscule: The Private Life of Insects.

(1999?-)

Logo: On a white background, we see a dot dropping into the floor. It then starts drawing a yellow swirl. After that, it begins to bounce the words "FUTUR" in white and "IKON" in black. Then the dot lands to the letter "I".

Variants:

There is a short version where it starts when the dot bounces.
There is also a still version on a black background that appears on U.S. airings of Minuscule: The Private Life of Insects on Disney Channel.
There is another version where the words "Films" is shown below. This was seen on the original French release of Dragon Hunters.
On Willa's Wild Life, the logo is still.
A letterboxed version is used on films from the company such as Minuscule: Valley of the Lost Ants.

FX/SFX: The dot and the logo forming.

Music/Sounds: A dropping sound when the dot drops, followed by a 12-note piano tune.

Availability: Common. Can be seen at the end of Fly Tales, Monster Energy, Kaput & Zosky, Willa's Wild Life, Minuscule: The Private Life of Insects, among others.

Editor's Note: None.
