AAC Kids

Background
AAC Kids was the children's production division of Alliance Atlantis Communications.

Logo (March 31, 1999-July 4, 2006)


Visuals: There is a paper-cutout space background filled with stars, meteors, the Moon at the bottom right, and Mars below. There is also a black rocket, with the Alliance A logo on top in yellow, and the text stack "AAC KIDS" written below in light blue with the "I" dotted with a yellow star. The rocket lands on Mars and sits there as stars and meteors pass by.

Variants:
 * There is a long version of this logo where the AAC rocket flies like a bee around the moon and bumps into Pluto. This was seen on Hoze Houndz on Family Channel in Canada, along with airings of Connie the Cow outside of the USA.
 * A variant of the long version that cuts out the rocket flying around the moon exists.
 * Sometimes, the URL "www.allianceatlantis.com" is at the bottom.
 * There's a (.*) version was seen on I Was a Sixth Grade Alien.
 * An alternate version has the rocket already on Mars (with Pluto and the moon in the sky above it) taking off as the trail of smoke wipes the background to black.

Technique: 2D computer animation.

Audio: Assorted sci-fi and cartoon sound effects (like the classic Hanna-Barbera "whiz/zip" sound in reverse) and a child giggling. In some cases, it's the closing theme of the show or silence.

Availability: Seen on season 1 and 2 episodes of Degrassi: The Next Generation on PlutoTV. Also seen on the short-lived cartoon Yvon of the Yukon, season 2 episodes of Shadow Raiders, season 4 episodes of ReBoot, Henry's World, as well as season 3 of the late 90's Disney Channel show The Famous Jett Jackson. It also plastered the Claster Television logo on previous seasons of ReBoot.
