Logo: Against a rippling water background, the following text slide in from all sides of the screen in this order: "Miller" from the right, "Boyett" from the bottom, "Warren" from the top, and "productions" from the top. All the text is in a tall white font barring the first letters of "Miller Boyett Warren", which are a salmon color, and "productions" had a long line underneath it extending past the text itself. They are also all transparent, but become opaque when a brown marble plate with the words in black fades in behind them, and a border in the same material zooms out from off-screen. All of these then connect together. | '''Logo:''' Against a rippling water background, the following text slide in from all sides of the screen in this order: "Miller" from the right, "Boyett" from the bottom, "Warren" from the top, and "productions" from the top.
