Logo: The logo fades in to a camel standing on top of a sandy hill during nighttime with starry skies in front of a full moon and next to two palm trees. The shadows of the camel and trees can be seen below. The camera then zooms in on the camel which appears with more detail this time, showing hooves, the truffles of fur and its face. As this happens, the camel looks into the camera and yowls at the screen with the camera in its mouth, showing the dangling uvula. After it's done yowling, the screen then quickly eases back and the camel rests in its natural position and the detail goes away. The hill disappears and the moon turns into the Clyde logo like seen above and the words "Clyde Pictures Presents" fades in below. Nine different stars would shine one at a time before fading out.

FX/SFX: Hand-drawn animation for the most part, also the stars shining.

Music/Sounds: It begins with a twinkle and a beating of a drum, along with the camel yowling. Then it goes into a brief Egyptian flute tune. Sparkles are heard when the stars shine.

Availability: Appeared on the Ray Stevens movie Get Serious, which can be found on VHS.
