Описание: This video is not available in France (as well as in other French-speaking regions such as Guadeloupe, French Guiana, Martinique, New Caledonia, French Polynesia, Saint Pierre and Miquelon) due to the copyright block that the INA has claimed, since the historic visual image rights belong to the institute.

This is a comparison video focusing on 2 versions of the 1975 Antenne 2 (currently France 2) startup ident (ouverture antenne), animated by Jean-Michel Folon (1934-2005).

The initial version, broadcast at the launch of the channel on January 6, 1975.

The definitive version, broadcast a little later in the same year, lasting until September 12, 1983 (when the channel changed its branding to a new one; produced by Pipa Vidéo).

The music used in this video (Emmanuel, by Michel Colombier) is from the initial version, in which the pitch is the same as the original music, but with a different ending. In the following version, as well as in the closedown ident, the pitch is slightly increased.
