The ORTF third color channel
1st logo
(1972-1975)
Logo: The logo starts with a field of stars. The stars then change to the ORTF logo and the background becomes white. It then turns into the letters "c3". It then zooms in on one of them while circles appear from behind and stripes appear to the right. It then zooms in on the above space of the "3", showing the word "couleur". After that the logo gets a perspective. It then puts us into a white field full of "c3" logo's showing the word "couleur". Then the background turns blue with a few lines on the side. Then we see then the second "u" that moves to the first one, forming a "3". After that the "o" loses a stripe and becomes a "c". Then it zooms in again while circles appear from behind and the word "3e chaine couleur".
