Elastic (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 puts over the "S".

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

Cheesy Factor: None at all because this is a pretty spiffy logo.

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

Availability: Exctint. It appeared on Spanish DVDs and Spanish TV broadcasting of Caillou.

Scare Factor: Medium.

2nd Logo

(2007-)

Logo: On a white background, we see a spring jumping into the screen and then gets into a close-up. The screen flashes 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 music is very ominous and does not seem suited for a children's show, and the flashing colors as well as the close-up of the screen can cause seizures along with a feeling of menace.

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 version of Caillou, Dragon Ball sagas and distributed series across Europe, such as Mermaid Melody in Greece.

Scare Factor: Medium to high.
