Background

Prior to 1994, the TVA network used different intros for airing movies. Starting in September of that year, however TVA was asked to use a single intro for all their movie presentation on the network. Starting in 2006, these intros are no longer used.

1st Logo (September 1994-August 1998)

Visuals: On a background resembling a red curtain is the TVA logo zooming out. Then the yellow sphere from the logo detaches from it leaving a claquette formed of the red rectangle and the blue square. The yellow sphere fades out, and the claquette pops open to show a camera lens with little purple squares around and a black person shadow walking. As the red background turns to purple, the shadow turns into a surfer and the squares grow to fit around a square resembling a screen. The screen zooms in a little bit, and either CINÉ-EXTRA, CINÉ-FAMILLE, CINÉ-MAXIMUM, CINÉ-LUNE or CINÉ WEEK-END (depending on the movie aired on the network) zoom out to complete the logo.

Variant: When a movie airing on TVA was presented by the NEON brand car from Chrysler, a variant was used. The logo is completing as usual but with a change: "CINÉMA" zooms out and the NEON car logo flashes underneath it.

Audio:

All intros except CINÉ-LUNE: a bombastic keyboard tune. Electric sounds added on the CINÉMA NEON variant.
CINÉ-LUNE: same theme as the first variant, but rearranged with flute and chromatic percussion.

Availability: Seen before and after every movie airing on TVA during that era. Check your home tapes.

2nd Logo (August 1998-October 2002)

Visuals: On the first part is the normal start of filming. The countdown starts after a voice says Moteur! During this countdown, there is Attention! Ça va rouler! Silence sur le plateau!. After that a claquette with the words Cinéma TVA claps while we hear a voice saying Action!. Then, an animation is played and depends on the movie presented. As it ends, there is COUPEZ!. The words CINÉ zooms out and takes position on a green background with filmstrips in it. To complete the logo, either the white Times New Roman words Extra, Famille, Dimanche, Lune appear under CINÉ.

Variant: When a movie is presented during CINÉMA EXTRÊME, the ending is different.

Audio: Voices saying Moteur, Attention! Ça va rouler! Silence sur le plateau!, Action! and COUPEZ!, followed by a 8-note electronic synthesiser tune.

Availability: Seen on TVA-presented movies of the era. Check your tapes.

3rd ID (October 2002-August 2006)

Visuals: On a brown background covered with filmstrips, there are the words Cinéma fading in letter-by-letter. When the last letter comes out, either Ciné-Extra, Ciné-Lune, Ciné-Dimanche (in white, depending on the movie presented) zooms down from the top of the screen.

Audio: A pop tune with ad libs.

Availability: No longer in use since August 2006.
