1st Logo (July 13, 1983-February 15, 1985)
Logo: On a black background, an outline of a filmstrip with blue, red, and smaller white strips appear from the bottom, forming a perspective design. In the center, the Hachette Première and 20th Century Fox print logos at the time wipe in and then comes closer to the screen. The film strip then leaves the bottom section but remains at the top, making room for "HACHETTE - FOX PRODUCTIONS" underneath.
Technique: The filmstrip moving; the logo wiping and zooming in.
Audio: A proud horn fanfare. Otherwise, none.
Availability: It was seen on The Public Woman, Right Bank, Left Bank, and Hell Train as well as French prints of Fox titles.
2nd Logo (August 29, 1984)
Logo: On a blue gradient background, the print logos for the 20th Century Fox and Hachette logos are in red and with a white shadow effect. On top of them is the text:

As with the logos, the text has a white shadow.
Technique: None.
Audio: None.
