Halifax Film

Background
The Halifax Film Company is a company that was founded by former Salter Street Films executives Michael Donovan and Charles Bishop in 2004. In 2006, Halifax Film merged with Decode Entertainment to form DHX Media (now WildBrain). The two companies continued until September 2010, when all divisions of DHX were renamed to their parent company's name. In November 2018, as part of a series of restructurations within the company, DHX sold its Halifax animation studio to IoM Media Ventures, a company led by former DHX CEO Dana Landry renaming the company to Island of Misfits.

(2005-May 25, 2006)
Logo: On water, the text "halifax film company" in Palatino fades in and ripples.

Variants:
 * On current prints of Poko, the logo is completely redone and omits the word "company". Also, a DHX Media byline can be seen below.
 * On Lunar Jim, an in-credit version is seen.
 * On This Hour Has 22 Minutes, a copyright notice appears under the logo.

Technique: CGI.

Music/Sounds: The closing theme to the show, or the first three notes of the piano piece "Clair de Lune", originally composed by Claude Debussy.

Availability: Appeared on all Halifax Film shows from this era, including This Hour Has 22 Minutes, Poko and season 1 of Lunar Jim. These days, it's become much harder to find as their output hasn't been reran lately.

(September 3, 2007-November 13, 2011)
Logo: On a black background, the text "Palatino" in Palatino with a line in the middle and a DHX Media byline below it zooms in.

Variants:
 * Sometimes the text would only blur, or also zoom in.
 * On season 2 of Lunar Jim, a white print version appears in-credit.
 * On pre-2010 episodes of This Hour Has 22 Minutes, a copyright may appear below.

Technique: 2D computer animation.

Music/Sounds: A seven-note dramatic orchestral fanfare or the ending theme of the show.

Availability: Common. Intact on their TV shows even after the merger, such as season two of Lunar Jim, The Mighty Jungle, Bo on the Go!, Animal Mechanicals, and Pirates: Adventures in Art, all of which were on CBC, as well as the first season of That's So Weird! on YTV. Like the previous logo, it's also become much harder to find as their output hasn't been reran lately.
