'''Visuals:''' It begins with the familiar Columbia Torch Lady (a less detailed and yellow-toned version of her 1942/1955 iteration), standing on the pedestal and holding her light torch against the backdrop of clouds. The camera slowly zooms towards the torch as the rays pull in, which shines even more as the picture blurs around it. It then emits a flash that fills the screen. When the flash dissolves, the light torch itself appears, as if in a sunburst, against a black background. As it shrinks, it changes into a more "abstract" torch: a blue half circle, or a semicircle, with thirteen white light rays in the center, and the words "Columbia Pictures" (in a beveled Souvenir Bold font) under it. The entire logo then slowly zooms out before fading out. | '''Visuals:''' It begins with the familiar Columbia Torch Lady (a less detailed and yellow-toned version of her 1942/1955 iteration), standing on the pedestal and holding her light torch against the backdrop of clouds.
