Elastic Rights (Spain)

1st Logo

(2000's-2007)

Logo: On a white background, we see "ELASTIC" in red. Then, we see a green dock with the form of a tornado jumping over some of the letters, and it goes over the "S". A ray forms the word, "Presenta."

FX/SFX: The dock jumping and the ray forming "Presenta".

Music/Sounds: Several beats and a loud "FUDAAAM".

Availability: Extremely rare. It appears on pre-2007 Spanish prints of Caillou.

Scare Factor: Medium. The music and the "FUDAAAM" can catch a few off guard.

2nd Logo

(2007- )

Nicknames: "Seizure-Elastic", "Elastic? More like a spring".

Logo: On a white background, we see a spring jumping into the screen and then gets into a close-up. The screen flashes colors (red, green, etc.) while this happens. The spring then slightly zooms out and straightens, and then zooms out even further until it changes to a 2D shape on the center of the screen. A stylized "ELASTIC" then stretches in from the bottom of the 2D shape and the screen flashes again for a second.

FX/SFX: The spring, the flashes, the wordmark stretching in.

Cheesy Factor: The CGI is rather dated. Also, the music seems too ominous for a children's show, and the flashy nature of the logo is likely to cause seizures.

Music/Sounds: Several beats playing under ominous, loud whooshing noises. When the text appears, there is a loud "FWWWAP" sound and lightbulb buzzing.

Availability: Appears on Spanish DVDs of Caillou. Also seen on Spanish TV versions of Caillou, and the Dragon Ball franchise, and various other programs distributed across Europe, such as Mermaid Melody in Greece.

Scare Factor: Medium to high. This isn't suitable for children, due to the flashing images and bouncing spring that accompanies it. And while we're on the topic of kid-unfriendly content, this logo has caused a fair amount of European kids to get seizures! Lessened if you're used to it.
