Logo: Against a blue/white gradient background, three parallelograms, colored red, green, and blue respectively, slide in from the top, bottom, and top respectively. They zoom out to the right, revealing "Colorization Inc", in white, to its right. They begin glowing in rainbow colors, and the words

below it, all in the colors you see here (the second line is supposed to be white). Below all that is some white copyright info. All of this fades out, and the text

appear below instead. The background is a blue/black gradient here, and a trademark symbol is located on the N in "Colorization".

FX/Cheesy Factor: The three color bars meeting, the logo "glowing" in rainbow colors.

Music/Sounds: It begins with three synth horn notes synced to the appearance of the color bars, then a few synth bells, a seven-note synth horn fanfare, four more synth bells, three more synth horn notes, and some more synth bells as the music fades out. The short variant uses a synth sounder with a bass drum opening.

Availability
: Rare; the full variant was seen on colorized movies from the '40s. The short variant was seen on colorized episodes of McHale's Navy.

Scare Factor: Low.
