Gaumont Animation

Background
Gaumont Animation was formed in 2009 as Gaumont-Alphanim, after the latter company was bought out by the former. It was renamed to its current name in 2013.

1st Logo (September 7, 1997-March 6, 2000)
Logo: On a black background, there is a face made out of lines being drawn with a blue Greek "α" and a yellow crescent moon. The word "Times New Roman" is formed by blue smoke.

Variants:
 * On season 1 and 2 of Animal Crackers, the face and words are against a white box on a cyan and blue-green gradient background. In Season 3, the box is removed and the background is a darker color and stretches out more.
 * On season 1 of Mona the Vampire, it's the finished product of the animated version.

FX/SFX: The logo being formed or none.

Music/Sounds: The closing theme of the show or none.

Availability: Uncommon. The still version is seen on the first season of Mona the Vampire and Animal Crackers. The animated variant can be seen on the first season of the 1999 series Redwall.

Editor's Note: None.

2nd Logo (March 10, 2000-November 8, 2003)
Logo: On a white background, we see a large black ink splatter. Inside the largest splatter is a very grungy version of the previous logo design, with "Courier New" below it in a creepy font. The company website URL is seen below the splatter.

Variants:
 * On The Baskervilles, the logo is below the Cinar logo against a black background, with the CiTV URL in the bottom right.
 * On Mona the Vampire, the logo is more close up without the URL.
 * An in-credit version of the logo can be seen on Spaced Out.

FX/SFX: None.

Music/Sounds: The closing theme of the show.

Availability: Rare. Each of shows has a different variant of the logo as seen in the variants section, but the Mona the Vampire variant only appears on the second and third seasons of the said show respectively.

Editor's Note: None.

3rd Logo (November 18, 2002-2009)


Logo: On a white background, we see an odd navy blue/sky blue swirl shape that criss-crosses at the very end of it, with 2 eyes in a hole in it, resembling an abstract fish. "alphanim" is seen below it.

Variants:
 * An animated variant appeared on Franklin and the Turtle Lake Treasure. On the same white background with a surface at the bottom, 2 eyes drop down from the top of the screen. They look around and blink. Then, a smile followed by the odd swirly shape is drawn in. Once it is done, the shape winks and shines as "alphanim" appears below.
 * An odd filmed variant of the animated version was spotted on a Polish 35mm print of the above film.
 * On sixth and final season of Franklin, the logo is on a black background.

FX/SFX: None.

Music/Sounds: The closing theme of the show. The animated variant features droops and blinking sounds, prior to a slide-whistle going up, an upbeat xylophone theme, a squeak sound and a "ding".

Availability: Uncommon. Appears on the last season of Mona the Vampire, (debuted with the 2nd season of Mona Le Vampire) as well as other shows from the company during this period.

Editor's Note: None.

Logo: Superimposed in the opening credits, we see the Gaumont daisy logo combined with the Alphanim logo from before. Below it is "A Gaumont-Alphanim Production".

Variant: On Galactik Football for the NDS, the logo is on a white background, colored red, and each company name is placed in their normal spots in the logos.

 * It sometimes shares the screen with other logos.

FX/SFX: None.
