Deuxième Chaîne de l'ORTF

Background
This is the second channel of ORTF (initially RTF Télévision 2 under the ownership of ORTF) after said channel rebranded RTF and its other channels. On 1 October 1967, the channel switched to colour using the SECAM system, making it the first colour television channel in France. In 1974, the company renamed itself to Antenne 2.

(1963-1964)
Logo: On a light brown background with "Times New Roman" on it, 2 curtains, with the one on top being white and the one on the bottom being dark gray, close themselves, removing "Times New Roman" stopping when they are halfway the "2". Then, as the 2 curtains spin around the "2" disappears and arrows pointing to the corners on the screen move to the corners of the screen. The animation gets repeated 3 times. The 4th time arrows are again pointing, but they home in on each other and then move to the corners of the screen. After that, the RTF logo appears.

Technique: Simple 2D animation.

Music/Sounds: A very triumphant fanfare.

Availability: Extinct.

1st Logo (1964-1972)
Logo: Same as the first logo, except that the top curtain is now, the bottom curtain is yellow and the arrows are to signify their shift into color broadcasting.

Technique: Same as the first logo.

Music/Sounds: Same as the first logo.

Music/Sounds Variant: Another variant with café/elevator-like music exists.

2nd Logo (1972-1975)
Logo: Three circles in, and ) fuse into each other and form the ORTF logo. It then gets embedded in multiple colorful petals. Then we see gaping holes moving out, creating color illusions. Then we see colorful shapes forming patterns around a circle, with a  circle zooming in on its center. After that, we see green ovals and violet circles appearing on a white circle in the center of a  background. Ultimately, the text "CHAINE 2 COULEUR" appears on the center of the pattern.

Technique: Really good animation.

Music/Sounds: Same as the first logo, but a bit louder.

Availability: Extinct. This ident was resurrected in 2017 commercial jingles for France 2, celebrating its 35th anniversary.
