1st Logo (1979-1981)

Visuals: This is an in-credit notice where the company's name in a thin 70's-like font is to the right of a simplistic, cartoony outline of a zebra-like creature.

Variant: On the opening of Les Aventures de Plume d'Élan, the words "une production" is on top of the logo.

Technique: A still, printed image.

Audio: The opening/closing theme of the show.

Availability: Seen on Les Aventures de Plume d'Élan.

2nd Logo (November 23, 1985-1987)

Visuals: Similar to the previous logo except the text is bolder and the zebra, now with eyes and stripes added and its feet removed, is to the right of the text.

Variants:

  • On the opening to Robo Story, "Produit par" is above the logo.
  • On Le croc-note show, the logo is within a copyright info and is shared with Bayard Production's in-credit notice. The zebra also replaces the "o" in "belokapi".

Technique: A still, printed image.

Audio: The opening/closing theme of the show.

Availability: Seen on Robo Story and Le croc-note show.
