MoonScoop Group

Background
Splash Entertainment (formerly known as MoonScoop) is a French/American animation company founded in 2003 after the merger of Antefilms (started in 1990) and France Animation (started in 1984). In 2013, the company went into administration and was subsequently acquired by Mike and Liz Young. On January 15, 2016, the studio released their first theatrical film, Norm of the North, which got universally negative reviews and flopped at the box office. A few months later, the company was hired to produce three additional sequels to the film Alpha and Omega.

1st Logo (September 3, 2003-March 29, 2014)


Logo: We see a yellow moon on a nighttime sky background. Then the sun hits it, making an eclipse (which causes the moon to turn into a crescent). Under the crescent, we see the phrase "MoonScoop".

Variant: There is also a still variant with a white background, On The Season 2 Credits Of Code Lyoko,

It’s Still And On The Half Side Of The Credits.

FX/SFX: The sun hitting the moon and the words swirling.

Music/Sounds: An explosion sound, followed by a synthesized shimmer.

Availability: Uncommon. It's seen on The Twisted Whiskers Show on Hub Network (now Discovery Family), Zevo-3 on Nicktoons and early episodes of Sabrina: Secrets of a Teenage Witch. The white background version is relatively common and can be seen on Strawberry Shortcake's Berry Bitty Adventures on FJR in Canada and on Hub Network in the US (until season three), and Care Bears: Welcome to Care-a-Lot, as well as the Pet Alien game for Nintendo DS.

Editor's Note: This logo is very memorable to those who grew up with the shows it appeared on.

2nd Logo (Code Lyoko Variant) (August 31, 2005-November 10, 2007)
Logo: On The Background Where The Lyoko Warriors Go Into Lyoko In Cyan, And We Also See The Lyoko Logo Drawing It’s Self, We See The MoonScoop Logo Colored Gray, Then We See The Words Presents Or Presente In White Text Type In, And Then Right Next To The S Or E, We See A Line Cutting In Then Out, Then Is All Fades Out.

FX/SFX: The Background And The Lyoko Logo Drawing, Pretty Nice For Code Lyoko!

Music/Sounds: A World Without Danger, By Subdigitals, With Beeping Noises For The Text Typing In And Line Cutting In Then Out. Starting With Season 3, The Beeping Noices For The Line Is In A High Pitch

Availability: Rare. Only Seen On Season 2-4 Of Code Lyoko, And The Place You Can Find This Logo Nowadays Is Netflix

Editor's Note: This is a memorable logo for those young people that grew up watching Code Lyoko.

1st Logo (April 5, 2014-February 5, 2016)
Logo: Only just the still Splash Entertainment print logo on a off white background seen at the end of animated shows that are coming from (or produced by or distributed by) the latter company.

FX/SFX: None.

Music/Sounds: The ending theme of the show.

Availability: Can be seen on later episodes of Sabrina: Secrets of a Teenage Witch, season 4 of Strawberry Shortcake's Berry Bitty Adventures, as well as Care Bears and Cousins.

Editor's Note: None.

2nd Logo (January 15, 2016- )


Logo: We start out on a light blue background, then the camera zooms out to reveal that there is an "S" in a bubble. The other letters in bubbles from the word "Splash" come together on a grey burst with "Entertainment" under the word "Splash". The whole logo is on water, and ripples come out of the water after the logo is finished forming.

Variant: On TV shows like Kulipari: An Army of Frogs and We're Lalaloopsy, the logo is sped up.

FX/SFX: The bubbles floating, the logo forming, and the water ripples. Pretty simple animation, especially for 2016. And the bubble popping animation looks very cheap too.

Music/Sounds: A majestic orchestral fanfare is used on movies, while TV shows use twinkling throughout the logo, bubbling and whooshing when the bubbles are floating, and splashing when the logo is formed. Otherwise, it's the opening/ending theme of the movie/show.

Availability: Seen on Norm of the North, as well as the last three Alpha and Omega movies, Kulipari: An Army of Frogs, and We're Lalaloopsy.

Editor's Note: None.
