'''Visuals:''' Against a smoky {{color|darkblue|dark blue}} background, there is 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 {{color|red}}. Then the word "'''AUMONT'''" appears on the right, and "DISTRIBUTION" appears at the lower right of the screen.

'''Visuals:''' On a {{color|blue}} space background, there is 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.
