The camera slowly zooms towards the mountain as 22 {{color|silver|silver}} CGI stars fly from the left side of the screen and encircle the mountain. While this happens, the sky slowly changes to a {{color|blue}}/red gradient as the landscape becomes slightly darker. When the last star takes its place, the "<span style="font-family: 'Times New Roman';">{{color|silver|'''''Paramount'''''}}</span>" script, redone with a shiny {{color|silver|silver}} finish, fades in on the peak of the mountain, along with a registered trademark symbol ("®"). One of the three bylines (as described below) fade in near the base of the mountain. | ||
