3rdSense (Australia)

3rdSense is an production company well-known for producing Olivia Dragon and more, mainly the successful Silver Lining franchise, formed in 2001. The company is the one behind the online shows site chorion.com. The company didn't have an animated logo, until Gaspard & Liza came out in 2010.

1st Logo

(2007-2012) Note: An audio-only file of this logo can be heard here.

Logo: We see a white-turned black background, which later filled by pieces of a fingerprint come out from all of directions, spinning and form themselves into a glowing white fingerprint. Then, the text "3rdsense" from the middle of the fingerprint zooms in a bit, and zooms out in order to positions itself while the background turns white again and the fingerprint dims and turns blue. After that, the borderlined URL "www.3rdsense.com" fades in.

FX/SFX: The color-changing BG, and the forming of the logo.

Music/Sounds: A thunder sound, followed by whooshes when the pieces are spinning and about to forming, and a deep (and ominous) whoosh when the texts appear. Depending on your loading time, it may be accompanied by the opening theme of the game. Which is “Swords and Sandals III: Solo Ultratus”

Availability: First seen on Olivia, and possibly other shows Producted by 3rdSense during the era. Don't expect to see this on Gaspard & Lisa, as it skips the show after the credits.

Scare Factor: Low to high. First, viewers will be shocked by the sudden thunder sound at the beginning (like Epic Music Video), and the fingerprint would throw more people off. The sound effects won't help either. The scare factor may vary for those who used to it.

2nd Logo (2012-2015, 2019-)

Logo: On a white, gray-shadowed background, we see a blue square/rhombus rotating. We then see that the rhombus forms an vertical triangular shape, which clones fading in from the right, and then turns pink at the same time. A yellow triangular shape, which is horizontal, draws after the two vertical ones. The logo then moves to the right and then to the left, to make space for the text "3RDSENSE" on gray to appear. The text then shines and folds in.

FX/SFX: The triangular shapes, the text appearing and the logo folding.

Cheesy Factor: The folding in of the logo isn't as busy as the first one.

Music/Sounds: The opening theme of the game/reel, or none.

Availability: Current, first seen on Furry Animals. Can also seen on the company's reel, here: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=IaoEzGooZ1g

Scare Factor: Low. If you aren't expecting the first logo to appear, this would catch you off-guard. However, it's a great sucessor compared to the first logo.

Trivia: 3rdSence was Defunct In 2015, but then later was revived in 2019
