'''Technique:''' Scanimate and chroma key.


'''Music/Sounds:''' A synth-timpani plays throughout. When the sky/grid scene begins to zoom out, a harsh distorted guitar drone begins playing. When the flash of light appears, both the timpani and the guitar stop and a loud, dramatic orchestral sting plays.

'''Logo:''' On a space background with the Earth and the Sun in the distance, we pan over the lowercase letters "'''castle'''", as if we are standing on the letters, from left to right. Around the letter "'''t'''", the camera pans down and sharply turns in the opposite direction, then zooms out to reveal the text is rotating around the Earth (a la the [[Universal Pictures|Universal]] logo). As this happens, a series of rainbow light trails (a la ''Star Trek'') cover the space background, and after a couple seconds, the screen flashes white to reveal nothing but the words "'''castle'''" and "HOME VIDEO" on a rainbow-colored ellipse on a space background.
