Logo: We see a stripey woman with fashion eyes and lips, that is actually the mom, forming. Once it forms, it folds. and then cut to a blue guy with beard, eared-like hair and pipe on it, actually the grandfather, and a beige, Elvis-haired sad guy, actually the worker/father, also unfolding and folding, and then we see the mom again, but with a striped coconut-colored grandmother with glasses and lips and a sun yellow bored-face-like girl with stylish hair, also unfolding and folding. We then see the grandfather, the worker, the girl and an yellow striped guy with hat and bored face, actually the boy, doing the same as before. The mom then unfolds in parts and then reveals it's teeth and mouth. We then pan to the worker, which is revising a book and then looking at us, moving the book down, the girl licking a lollipop, and we stop to the grandfather smoking to the grandmother's eyes three times, to quit the white spots in it's eyes, and then we see the boy, with the grandmother moving out and doing nothing until he pops while chewing orange (mango) bubblegum, and once it pops, the text "ciné" in orange and "-famille" in orange red, appear zooming in to us, a la Viacom V of Doom video.

FX/SFX: All 2D graphics, which whom they effort...

Cheesy Factor: ... They tried too hard, right? The striped guys aren't supposed to be striped, and all the design is overly mean to kids, just like the company is for all ages, but instead they got this; Life of parents just like a horror story.

Music/Sounds: A bluesy tune with a guitar and a harmonica.

Availability: Extremely rare, bordering on extinct. Seen on their films of the time, but it's hard to find.

Scare Factor: Low to high, bordering on nightmare. The striped guys conviving their lifes and the unfolding and folding, also the text zooming in at us, could give scares and chills, discomforting all kids on all ages. However, those who like the music would have less of a problem.
