'''Logo:''' On a black background, the {{color|gold}} letters "{{color|gold|'''BP'''}}" zoom out. Then, we see a series of small multicolored lines waving in the center, followed by a {{color|gold}} multi-lined cross shape with the same "{{color|gold|'''BP'''}}" in the middle, which leaves several multicolored residue trails. Then, the cross shape shifts a little taller while "{{color|gold|'''BRYANSTON'''}}" and "{{color|gold|'''PICTURES'''}}" in Eurostile Bold Extended in yellow appear above and below, respectively. Then, all of a sudden, they dissolve, and forms the word "{{color|gold|'''PRESENTS'''}}" in the same font, also in {{color|gold}}. | '''Logo:''' On a black background, the {{color|gold}} letters "{{color|gold|'''BP'''}}" zoom out.

'''Music/Sounds:''' A series of random, warbly synthesized sounds produced by a Moog synthesizer. It starts with an ascending whoosh, then descending beeping sounds, a loud descending chirp, an array of fast-paced ominous music with a sound that resembles the descending voices of the [[THX]] Deep Note, then warbly sounds that end with a droning synth hum and continuous synth beats and chirps. | '''Music/Sounds:''' A series of random, warbly synthesized sounds produced by a Moog synthesizer.
