'''Logo:''' On a black background, we see a dark setting with {{Font color|blue|blue}} hills and a road. A man with a fedora walks down the road, and the setting brightens. A box zooms out around the area with the man, and "CARAVAN PICTURES" appears above and below the picture, respectively. | '''Logo:''' On a black background, we see a dark setting with {{Font color|blue|blue}} hills and a road.

'''Trivia:''' The logo and company name is most likely a tribute to the 1941 film ''Sullivan's Travels'', about a filmmaker who sets out to make more meaningful movies. He travels on foot in a similar shot. At the end of the film, he describes his life as a "cockeyed caravan". Joe Roth is reportedly a fan of ''Sullivan's Travels'' director Preston Sturges, and his former company, Morgan Creek Productions, is named after another Sturges film, ''The Miracle of Morgan's Creek''. Also, the logo was designed and created by John Kehe. | '''Trivia:''' The logo and company name is most likely a tribute to the 1941 film ''Sullivan's Travels'', about a filmmaker who sets out to make more meaningful movies.

Good CGI. | ||
'''Music/Sounds:''' A nice keyboard jingle which makes the logo somber and gloomy at first. After the keyboard stops, the sky and everything else lightens up, we hear a gradual increase of the volume of the orchestrated part ending with a triumphant fanfare sounded out by trumpets and brass. There are two versions of this theme, one more bombastic than the other, both of which were composed by Randy Edelman. | '''Music/Sounds:''' A nice keyboard jingle which makes the logo somber and gloomy at first.
