Background

This is the home video unit of StudioCanal.

Logo (February 16, 2001-2003)

Visuals: A comet flies across a very dark blue sky, with a few intermittent stars (a homage to the Canal+ feature presentation ident of the time). As the comet passes over the screen, small stars start to flash and random numbers begin to appear in place of the flashes. A lightning bolt strikes from the right side of the screen into the middle of the screen. The numbers disappear and a circular burst of "rain" appears. Large white circles of varying sizes pop up over the screen and disappear almost instantaneously. Another lightning bolt hits. The source of the "rain" switches to the right side of the screen. The rain stops and white lines begin to appear all over the screen (once again disappearing instantly) as the letters for "STUDIO CANAL" appear haphazardly across the screen. A shooting star and a lightning bolt appear at the same time. Rain starts coming from all sides of the screen, as well as small white circles floating upwards. Sparkles of light encompass the screen, culminating in a white flash. The same logo from the previous logo, only the box for "STUDIO" is black, appears, surrounded by light streaks. Finally the word "VIDEO" appears on the bottom right of "CANAL" (with a bit of moving light appearing on the corner of the logo simultaneously).

Technique: 2D computer animation with some CG elements.

Audio: Same as the 2nd StudioCanal logo.

Availability:

This logo debuted on a 2001 home video release of The Night Filer (1997 movie).

Final Note

Starting in 2003, StudioCanal Video releases just use the standard StudioCanal logo.

-'''Audio:''' First, a zap sound is heard when the comet flies by, then a tribal hymn heavy on thunderous percussion, with an operatic singer marking the appearance of the company name, and a strange primal scream at the white flash (from Spectrasonics' ''Heart of Africa 1'' sample CD). A brief timpani hit is also heard to mark the appearance of "VIDEO".
