'''Logo:''' On a space background, we see a 3D transparent ABC logo, at an angle and in multiple colors. The logo then turns to face us and comes closer to the camera, ending up with "{{color|dodgerblue|'''abc'''}}" in {{color|dodgerblue|neon blue}}, and the circle in {{color|lightpink|neon pink}}. Below, the {{color|darkorange|neon orange}} text "{{color|darkorange|'''circle films'''}}" in the same font as the "{{color|dodgerblue|'''abc'''}}" letters, pans from the right. | '''Logo:''' On a space background, we see a 3D transparent ABC logo, at an angle and in multiple colors.
