'''Logo:''' A ton of code is seen on a scene of a military base with a helicopter exploding. It changes to a racing scene with a car and a motorcycle. Another car crashes into it and then switches to a man (looking a lot like Duke Nukem) with the Dolby symbol on his suit on a spaceship walking away from an alien in which 5 speakers and a TV set zoom out and shards form the golden Dolby logo as the background fades to black.

'''Nickname:''' "Rain", "Organic"
'''Nickname:''' "Origanic Rain"


'''Trailer:''' We start with bronze-ish colored water which appear to reflect the Dolby logo; then we flash and see a splash of water with it drops hitting each other. It fades to rain falling toward us. We then see it hit water reflecting the Dolby Digital logo, then fade to the Dolby Digital logo, a 3D object, in water. We fade to a smoky bronze background with "www.dolby.com".

'''FX/SFX:''' Quick, yet decent animation. Presumably, whoever was responsible for the 2002 Starz rebrand was also responsible for this trailer.

'''Availability:''' Extinct. This was a custom trailer only used on the Starz premium cable channel from 2002 to 2005 (prior to this they had used the 1st and 2nd trailers with "where available" superimposed over the end). When Starz and Encore received a unified rebrand in 2005, Dolby soundtracks were solely identified in the ratings bumpers from then on.

'''Music/Sounds:''' A quiet synth drone and bell toll to start, and a quiet 4-note string-section and synth jingle. Whooshing sounds are heard as the words and the rectangle fly around. The jingle ends with a synth chime fade out.

'''Availability:''' Rare. It appears at the beginning of ''Spunky's First Christmas'', ''Spunky's Circus Adventure'' and ''Spunky's Camping Adventure''. It also appears on foreign VHS tapes in the UK and France, as well as the game ''Armored Fist 2''. The shortened version can be seen at the beginning of the Dolby Consumer Guide to Home Theater VHS from 1991.

'''Logo:''' We zoom out of the City trailer where the Dolby theater is to reveal we're in a theater. We pan through the theater and lights go off at certain angles to illustrate virtual surround sound when listening. The lights shine toward the ceiling to flash, from which comes down a golden [D(I] with headphones. DOLBY HEADPHONE appears in its corporate font by flashing letter. The theater fades out to a black background and the logo shines.

'''Logo:''' Many symbols and lines form as we move up. Snowflake-like symbols shoot out before vines form the Dolby symbol and the rest of the logo zooms out, forming the Dolby Digital logo.
