Chappelle

From the Audiovisual Identity Database, the motion graphics museum


Background

This is the current vanity card of Dave Chappelle, following a rename from Pilot Boy Productions.



1st Logo (September 12, 2005)

Visuals: On a black background, the Chappelle logo, which is the letter "C" with red and green shapes surrounding it on the top and bottom, zooms out and shines.

Technique: CGI.

Audio: Same as the Pilot Boy Productions logo, but the truck horn is absent.

Availability: Seen on Dave Chappelle's Block Party.

2nd Logo (March 21-December 31, 2017)

Visuals: Over a black background, red outlines of the letter "C" zoom out. They become a single "C" that fills with white as the red and green shapes go on the "C", completing the Chappelle logo. There are also old film effects applied over the logo.

Technique: 2D computer animation, which is reminiscent of 1970s scanimation.

Audio: Same as the Pilot Boy Productions logo, but Chappelle himself says the line and the horn sounds slightly different.

Availability: Seen on The Age of Spin: Dave Chappelle Live at the Hollywood Palladium and Dave Chappelle: The Bird Revelation.

3rd Logo (August 26, 2019-)

Visuals: On a black background, a red outline zooms in, and fills with red. A black outline appears behind it and a green bar appears at the bottom. Then, the letter "C" zooms out to form the Chappelle logo. The finished logo zooms in.

Variant: The logo was later re-animated with smoother animation.

Technique: CGI.

Audio: Chappelle says "By the way... vanglorious! This is protected by the red, the black, and the green, at the crossroad, with a key, sissy!" This is a quotation of the intro lyrics to "Funkin' Lesson" by X-Clan. The later variant cuts out the first and the last words of the aforementioned quote.

Availability: It can be seen on Dave Chappelle: Sticks and Stones, Dave Chappelle: The Closer, and Chappelle's Home Team - Earthquake: Legendary.
