'''Logo:''' Against a smoky dark blue background, we see a revolving orange globe, with several "points" moving like that of a cartoon sun, zooming in from the top right. It immediately cuts to Gaumont's "marguerite" daisy with a "G" inside it, both in white, which resembles the 1st logo's daisy. As it moves out to the left, the background slowly turns red. Then the word "AUMONT" appear at the right, and "DISTRIBUTION" appears at the lower right of the screen.

'''Nickname:''' "Space Daisy", "The Gaumont Daisy IV", "Zooming Daisy"


'''Logo:''' On a blue space background, we see a white daisy zooming forward, eventually reaching the viewer and leaving the screen. The text "Gaumont" in an old-English font (the same font used for the 1908 logo) zooms out along with the daisy from before, which stops on top of the text. When it reaches the end of the screen, it disappears.

'''Logo:''' Against a dark blue/black gradient BG with stars shooting forward, several of Gaumont's "marguerite" daisy logos from the past are shown zooming out into the distance. Then, a large white daisy (sans the text) slowly zooms up and out of view. Afterward, the word "Gaumont" in white with the "G" inside the same daisy from earlier (the text appears to be in 3D). The logo continues to zoom out. As this happens, several more stars shoot forward.

'''Logo:''' Against a black background is "GAUMONT" in a skinny red font, with the "G" inside the stylized daisy from the 1981 logo. The daisy spins as the logo begins, but stops about a second later. On the bottom right of the text, "PRESENTE" appears.

'''Editor's Note:''' This logo is a source of annoyance for french logo enthusiasts as it is used to plaster many of Gaumont's older logos..

'''Logo:''' Against a dark blue gradient BG, we see the Gaumont daisy slowly coming toward us, a la Viacom's "V of Doom", and stars shoot forward as this happens. It fills the screen and then we see the word "aumont" zoom out with a 3D effect. Then it slowly zooms out altogether and disappears. It's similar to the 6th logo except without any daisies.

'''Logo:''' We see a map of all the Gaumont logos throughout history labeled with their respective years. The camera pans across the map following the logos until it gets to the last one. We then see a bright flash and then the camera zooms in toward a gold Gaumont daisy in space (with stars shooting forward). It has a cloud of gas revolving around it that quickly transforms into the word "Gaumont" (written in red). The daisy also turns red. The logo shines afterward.

'''Editor's Note:''' This is one of the earliest 100 years logos on the wiki; most companies haven't been reaching their 100th anniversary until the early 2010s.

'''Logo:''' We start on a black background, then blue haze rises above a horizon, similar to an eclipse, with fireflies flying about. We seen see a silhouette of a boy walking from the distance and stops at a silhouette of a daisy. The boy then bends down and picks up the daisy, then stands back up and lets go of it. The boy then looks up as we travel to the daisy, which comes closer to the screen. The daisy turns colorful and flashes again, turning into the Gaumont logo similar to the previous logo, but more detailed and in 3D. The background changes into a detailed zooming space BG. The Gaumont logo shines and fades out.

'''Logo:''' On a black background a red light appears and bursts to form a red line. The red line rotates to look like a petal. After this several more petals fall from the screen as the background intensifies to a blood red color. Soon, hundreds of petals appear to form a red Gaumont logo resembling the one from 1981, but with a more modern look. The petals in the circle keep rotating until the red background becomes black again.
