*A custom made closing variant exists for 3D films. It starts off in a starry background with many colorful silhouettes of branches and a red butterfly as it looks at one of the branches, then it flies towards the camera as it turns into a string of light and forms the DCM logo along with sparkling lights in front of it. The text would also display at the top left of the screen, "DISCOVER THE POWER OF CINEMA ADVERTISING '''IN 3D'''".

*Another closing variant exists as part of a promotion with the Sour Patch Kids candy. It starts off with the normal closing variant, until a few seconds later, the logo is revealed to be from a film reel as a part of it was taken by a green sour patch kid as he looks at it and then faces the camera. It then cuts to the final shot of the logo as the same sour patch kid looks at the logo and then proceeds to touch it while looking at the camera as the logo for the candy appears on the right, along with links to its UK Facebook and Twitter accounts.

'''FX/SFX:''' Although you may think that this is CGI animation, it was actually live action, done by BAFTA-winning design company Jump (notable for branding work on ''The X Factor'' and ''Who Wants to Be a Millionaire?''.) It can be noticeable judging from a bit of camera shaking when "DIGITAL" appears.
