M6 Vidéo

1st (known) Logo (Early 1990's-1999)
Logo: We see a white background scanning out, leaving a black background instead. A "M" letter comes from the top of screen, while two "6"s (one white and one ) appear from the left and right of the screen, all moving in time with the music. Once the M6 logo is formed, a small rectangle with "VIDEO" written on it appears. The logo fades out, and we see "PRESENTE".

Technique: 2D animation in line with M6's branding at the time.

Audio: A deeper version of M6's main theme at the time, with different instruments.

2rd Logo (1999-2002)
Logo: We see the M6 Vidéo logo turning while the camera zooms out. After a short flash, the M6 sign becomes static, while confetti-like stripes fly over the screen.

Technique: Computer animation.

Audio: A noodling sound when the logo turns, a bang, and a drone synth tune.

Availability: Unknown.

3rd Logo (2002-2011)


Logo: Similar to the 2002 SND logo sequence, a diagonal light blue flash forms the M6 logo (the M in white and the 6 in black) while the VIDEO text appears with a "wipe" effect, following the diagonal. A laser then forms the square around the logo.

Technique: CGI animation, the same as SND's.

Audio: Similar to SND, a deep drone pad tune is heard while the logo fades in with a sort-of booming sound when the laser appears. Unlike SND, however, the laser here doesn't produce any sound except when it appears.

Availability: Seen on video releases of SND films at the time.

4th Logo (2011-)


Logo: Same as the 2011 SND logo, but with "M6 VIDEO" instead of "SND" and "GROUPE M6". Also, the camera pans to the upper right.

Technique: Same as the SND logo.

Audio: Same as the SND logo.

Availability: Seen on current video releases of SND films.
