(1998- )

Nickname: "The Banyan Leaf"

Logo: On a sand background, we see a leaf drifting down. As it lands on the sand, a blue crescent appears next to the leaf, and "BANYAN PRODUCTIONS" appears next to the picture. Both the crescent and the text appear with a "rippling" effect. Many "stars" shine on the logo while it forms.

FX: The forming of the leaf, the rippling, and the "stars".

Music/Sounds: Beach sounds accompanied by "twinkling" sounds when the logo forms.

It also appeared on a late-1990's cooking show on the Discovery Channel, Birth Day on Discovery Health, A Baby Story, and A Wedding Story on TLC. It can also be seen on the www.banyan.com website.

Scare Factor: None.
