1st (known) Logo
(Late '80s?-????)


Nicknames: "Stone Camera", "Camera in Space"

Logo: Following the copyright screen (which also shows the company's address and phone number), a huge explosion occurs. This transitions to a space BG with stars shooting forth and a stone camera shooting toward us. We then cut to the camera zooming out and turning gold as a red "comet" circles around it. Then, a red line springs out of the camera and transforms into the words "fil à film" in script. The text shines, and the camera sparkles.

FX: The camera, text, and stars; impressive animation here!

Music/Sounds: It starts with a warning siren after the explosion, then a Star Wars-esque string sounder, ending with a short fanfare near the end.

Availability: Rare; seen on French SECAM VHS's from the period.

Scare Factor: Low to medium; the transition from the calm copyright screen to the dramatic space BG can be pretty jarring.
