'''Visuals:''' On a swirly {{color|red}}/{{color|gold|yellow}} background with a bit more of {{color|gold|yellow}} (similar to the background of the 2004-2011 ''AFV'' graphics), the "''Vin Di Bona''" signature spins in the same way as before, but unfurls quicker. The entire signature is now colored in a shiny {{color|gold}} color, which radiates off light for the 1st half of the logo. It has also been noticeably updated to match Vin's signature better, is at a slight angle, and appears to have a black outline. "{{color|gold|PRODUCTIONS}}" is also spaced out and appears just as the logo frills out. The logo shines after the unfurling.
