'''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:''' 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.

'''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. | '''Logo:''' We see a map of all the Gaumont logos throughout history labeled with their respective years.

'''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. | '''Logo:''' On a black background a red light appears and bursts to form a red line.

'''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. | |||
'''Variants:''' | |||
* A black and white variant has been spotted. | |||
* Another version has "DEPUIS QUE LE CINEMA EXISTE" ("ever since cinema exists") below it. | |||
'''FX/SFX:''' The daisy spinning. | |||
'''Music/Sounds:''' None. | |||
'''Availability:''' Common. Seen on reprints of various Gaumont classics. | |||
'''Editor's Note:''' This logo is the main reason why most Gaumont logos are hard to find, and this plastering monster just has barebones effort put in. Not as annoying as other logos that do a worse plastering job, but this still has an annoyance level. | |||
