MEDIA Programme

Background
The MEDIA sub-programme of Creative Europe or simply Creative Europe MEDIA (formerly The MEDIA Programme of the European Union) is an extensive media funding program organized by the European Union. Established in 1990 with headquarters in Brussels, Belgium, the program is designed to support the European film, TV and audiovisual industries, providing assets for the development, promotion, and distribution of European related (or based) works within Europe and beyond. Originally owned directly by the EU, it was transferred in late 2013 under Creative Europe, another EU programme for the cultural and creative sectors.

(May 12, 1991-)
Logo: Superimposed in the credits of the TV show or film is the still MEDIA logo and the EU flag next to it. Below the logo is "A programme of the European Union" in a clean font in either white, black or, while "MEDIA" is in a rainbow color and ribbed with white line marks. Sometimes, the company's URL can be seen below both of them in a smaller size.

Trivia: The print version of the logo itself was made with rainbow colors to represent the CE branding, not the Europe flag on the left.

Technique: None.

Audio: The end theme of the movie or TV show.

Availability: Seen on MEDIA-funded television programs or movies, debuting with the 1991 film Europa. Also seen on Les Amants des Points-Neuf, Land & Freedom, Farenelli and Festen, among others.

(2014-)
Logo: On a dim blue background, a bunch of white lines (5 from left, 6 from right) slide in from the sides of the screen. As they cross, the MEDIA logo appears behind them, then leave the same line marks on the logo as they exit, while "CREATIVE EUROPE" is formed above from a cross of two lines. Then, two balls of light (one is brighter than the other) slide in, cross through the logo, and as they exit, the line marks shift slightly to the right, all while the EU flag fades in below.

Variants:
 * On some movies, "SUPPORTED BY" flourishes in above the logo through a swirl of light, then fades out at the end.
 * A scope version exists.
 * In the closing credits, the program's official logo would appear either in color, black (outlined in white) or white. Sometimes, "Co-funded by the European Union" is seen left to the EU flag.

Technique: 2D computer animation.

Audio: A hum with wind sounds, and a ding when the lights pass the logo.

Availability: Seen on Scream Street, The Favourite and A Shaun the Sheep Movie: Farmageddon, among many other films.
