'''Visuals:''' Inserted into the end credits of a film (instituting that it's a print logo) is "LE STUDIO" in a large font. Inside it is the Canal+ logo, which is the name of the network in an italic form. The plus sign is inside the "O" of "STUDIO".
'''Visuals:''' On a black background, a white rectangle fades into the center of the screen, as 3 copies of the text "'''LE STUDIO'''" (in a tall serif font), in {{color|hotpink|pink}}, {{color|dodgerblue|blue}}, and {{color|yellow}}, slide into the rectangle from the top, left, and right side of the screen at once, albeit at different speeds. When they all eventually meet in the center, the colors overlap into forming a mostly-{{color|grey}} color with hints of {{color|hotpink|pink}}, {{color|dodgerblue|blue}}, and {{color|yellow}} along the edges. Then, the Canal+ logo fades in black, lined up so that the "'''+'''" is within the "'''{{color|grey|O}}'''", and the wordmarks slowly fade out, leaving the rectangle.


'''Variants:'''
'''Variants:'''
* The logo, was often seen inside a white rectangle with "LE STUDIO" in {{color|gray}} and the "CANAL+" in black.  
* An all white, rectangle-less version exists. This is actually the print logo.
* An animated variant exists, and starts with the rectangle fading in, then three copies of "LE STUDIO" in {{color|hotpink|pink}}, {{color|dodgerblue|blue}}, and {{color|yellow}} flying into the rectangle, then combining and turning {{color|gray}}. "CANAL+" then fades in. Then the logo fades out and "PRESENTE" in white fades in. This animation was used as a de-facto video ident for the company's releases.
** An early opening variant has a white Canal+ logo and "{{color|grey|'''LE STUDIO'''}}" in grey and outlined in {{color|gold}}.
* On ''Chaplin'', the logo is seen next to the Carolco logo.
* On some VHS releases, after the text fades out, the rectangle and background invert colors for a few frames, with the "'''LE STUDIO'''" text reappearing within the rectangle, before disappearing and being replaced with "'''PRESENTE'''" in white.
* On ''Chaplin'' and ''Basic Instinct'', the print logo is seen next to the Carolco logo. The former had the rectangle version, the latter had the rectangle-less version.
