Editor's Note: This is a boring logo, especially considering the logos that follow, but it might have been a placeholder.

2nd Logo

(2000-2003)

<iframe align="right" frameborder="0" height="181" src="http://wikifoundrytools.com/wiki/closinglogos/widget/youtubevideo/79f929815455036b39c28ed4fa18d751dc4bab59" width="320"></iframe>

Logo: On a background of the Earth with rotating meteors, we see a train travel past us on a floating filmstrip. We then see a rocket-like thing moving up-right, then more filmstrips as the camera reveals a floating city with the word "ODEON" in gold on top. As a light shines brightly, an electricity spark appears. The city disappears, meteors fly towards the screen, and the word "ODEON", along with the URL "www.odeon.gr", appears. After a few more electricity sparks, the background dims and the text shines.

FX/SFX: Everything, in amazing CGI animation.

Music/Sounds: A gong sound leading into a majestic string theme, with other sounds that match the actions.

Availability: Rare. Seen on DVDs and videotapes released at the time, such as the 2002 Greek VHS ofIce Age.

Editor's Note:This logo has some really nice animation and music, and is an improvement over the previous logo.

Logo: On a dark blue-blackgradient background, a spotlight shines down. After a while, some ripple-like circles appear as a floor-like surface appears, followed by a flash as a light draws a star. When it's done, some gold streaks appear, connecting with the star, which is now half-formed. The letters of the word "ODEON" flash in and flash lightblue, astheURL "www.odeon.gr" appears below.

Variants:

• In some DVDs, the star is 2D and doesn't rotate.
• There exists a 20th Anniversary variant where "20" appears in the star with "th" to its upright, and "annoversary" in spaced-out letters appears below "ODEON".

FX/SFX: Eveything, in CGI animation.

Music/Sounds: An echoing sleigh bell-like sound, with a whoosh as the ripples appear, a whoosh along the flash, some humming and banging noises as the star is being drawn, a five-note orchestral theme as the letters appear, an orchestral hit, and a humming sound.

Availability: Common. Found on DVDs released at the time, such as DVDs for SpongeBob SquarePants and Dora the Explorer.

Editor's Note: This logo has good animation.
