'''Visuals:''' On a {{color|blue}} background, a shower of light descends from the top of the screen, forming a stylized, segmented drawing of a castle (likely based on Disneyland's Sleeping Beauty Castle); the segments appear to be spaced increasingly further apart as the light descends. Through the main gate of the castle, a ray of light appears and morphs into the words "'''W{{Small|ALT}} Di{{small|SNEY}}'''" in its familiar corporate font, followed by the word "{{font|Courier New|PICTURES}}" (set in ITC Lubalin Graph) fading in underneath. Another ray of light then draws an arc over the castle, which is hidden only by its highest tower.

* June 21, 1985-November 17, 1989: The castle has a {{color|mediumpurple|lavender}}/white gradient | * June 21, 1985-November 17, 1989: The castle has a {{color|mediumpurple|lavender}}/white gradient}}, and the arc is drawn all the way to the bottom left of the castle, behind the "W" in "Walt Disney". Also, there is a brief pause after the initial glow before the shower of light descends, and the flash from the castle gate starts immediately after the castle has been fully formed. | ||
** Some versions of this variant show the castle with a {{color|deepskyblue|light blue}}/white gradient. However, some prints of ''The Black Cauldron'' show the castle in pure white. | |||
* March 21, 1990-April 14, 2006: The castle is now {{color|skyblue|sky blue}}, and | * March 21, 1990-April 14, 2006: The castle is now {{color|skyblue|sky blue}}, and the arc now ends just above the "W" in "Walt Disney". | ||
** In the original cel-animated version of this variant, the "Walt Disney" wordmark appears slightly transparent, whereas in the digital ink-and-paint version (introduced in 1994), the wordmark is solid white. | ** In the original cel-animated version of this variant, the "Walt Disney" wordmark appears slightly transparent, whereas in the digital ink-and-paint version (introduced in 1994), the wordmark is solid white. Also, the light reflection on the castle when the arc is drawn is different. | ||
* February 15, 2002-December 12, 2006: Same as the 1990 variant, but a seventh flag is added to the rightmost tower of the castle. This variant is seen exclusively on films produced by [[DisneyToon Studios]]. | * February 15, 2002-December 12, 2006: Same as the 1990 variant, but a seventh flag is added to the rightmost tower of the castle.
