The camera then pans clockwise from Cannell's face to Cannell's back. Once the camera is towards Cannell's back, Cannell throws the paper that Cannell is typing on over Cannell's head. The paper becomes animated on a black background and floats downwards towards a stack of animated papers below. The paper "scoops" up the top papers in the stack and forms a "C" as the stack becomes more abstract and the perspective becomes a top-down perspective. The company name (with Cannell's name typed in followed by "Productions" sliding out from below the company name) is formed at the top of the screen. | ||
