The rays form a monolith with a bright, shiny back face, which pans backward (and slightly downward), rotates to face forward, then stops. As it rotates towards the screen, the rays are outlined to make "{{color|blue|'''PGP'''}}" in a lined font, which pull into the back of the monolith. The letters shine in a "flash" (similar to the 1978 [[WGBH Productions|WGBH]] logo) and solidify in their color. After that, the words "'''PROCTER & GAMBLE PRODUCTIONS, INC.'''" (in a white Avant Garde font) appear below "{{color|blue|'''PGP'''}}", and are sandwiched by two blue lines which are formed left-to-right and right-to-left, respectively. This is PGP's first of two proper logos since PGP had no logo per sé until this one debuted. | ||

'''Technique:''' A mixture of live-action (the rays and monolith) and CGI (the finished product). According to a comment on [https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=tZUWF1ofyaU this upload], the logo was shot on 35mm film using a 16-axis automated camera stand, programmed using BASIC commands. | '''Technique:''' A mixture of live-action (the rays and monolith) and CGI (the finished product).

The ball, now smaller, comes in from the right side of the screen to form the letters "'''{{color|blue|PG}}{{color|deepskyblue|P}}'''" (the "{{color|blue|'''PG'''}}" is connected) in blue and {{color|deepskyblue|aquamarine}} on its right, and the following text in the same colors below it: | ||
