Créativité & Developpement (France)

Background
Créativité & Développement (C&D) was a French animation production company founded by Jean Chalopin in 1987 after he left  DiC Enterprises. In 1996, Jean Chalopin sold his company to  Saban International Paris.

==1st Logo  (1987-1992?) ==

Nickname : "C&D" == Logo  : On the white background, a spring green/deep pink lightning bolt-shaped paint streak wipes in, while a gray egg shape with a pointy top and a vertical line in the middle draws and splits open, revealing a thingray ampersand and forming a stylized "C&D". While it happens, the words "CRÉATIVITÉ" and "ET DÉVELOPPEMENT", slide below in from the left and the right, respectively, while the sponsor logos "Kid K7" and "Planète magique", coming out from the C and the D, respectively, switch places around and into the bottom of the screenwhile the logo zooms out a bit to the top to make the place for "Kid K7" and "Planète magique" logos.

FX/SFX : All of the animation.

Music/Sounds : A weird 5-note synth jingle.

Availability : Extremely rare, as shows with this logo are extremely hard to come by these days. It appeared on the series Diplodos.

Scare Factor : Low. The music might get to some.

2nd Logo (1992?-1998)==

Nickname : "C&D II"

Logo : On a white-grey background, we see the lightning bolt from the previous logo as a color-less and transparent shape, which wipes in from the left with the slightly sand effect, which then gets filled with blue-green and dark pink colors. The bolt then zooms out, as we see the stylized "C&D" from the previous logo and the "CRÉATIVITÉ & DEVELOPPEMENT" text in the same font as before (although both are now in black) wiping in, and then fade in after they are entirely formed.

Variants : FX/SFX : The bolt getting color-filled and zooming out, the text and "C&D" wiping and fading in.
 * A short version of the logo begins with the colors filling in.
 * The later version has the colors of the bolt changed. It has the blue-green and dark pink colors this time.
 * Sometimes, the logo is already formed and still.

Music/Sounds : A wind sound, then a long whoosh sound, then an ascending piano. The short and still versions has the abridged of the logo's music

Availability : Uncommon. Can be seen on shows like Littlest Pet Shop (the 1995 version).

Scare Factor : None to minimal. The sudden whoosh sound may startle some people.
