Suddenly, a white circle makes an iris-in effect behind the mountain. The "{{Font|Times New Roman|'''''Paramount'''''}}" name, which is written in its majestic script font and appears in black, pops in while 22 white stars appear around the border, starting in the middle and going downward. The word "{{Font|Times New Roman|'''''Paramount'''''}}" immediately moves upward to make room for "{{Font|Times New Roman|'''''Television'''''}}" below it, in the same typeface. Below the logo are two subtitles, both in white: "'''COPYRIGHT © MCMLXVIII BY PARAMOUNT PICTURES CORPORATION. ALL RIGHTS RESERVED'''" in a more standard typeface, and "{{Font|Times New Roman|''''Paramount Pictures Corporation''''}}" in the Paramount logo font. | ||

"'''PARAMOUNT'''" has the largest typeface, and the other two lines are progressively smaller. The smaller right section of the rectangle is white and contains the print version of the Paramount logo in blue, complete with the corporate Gulf+Western byline of the era. The picture zooms up to the logo, which contains the print version of the movie logo from the era. | ||

As the picture zooms up to the Paramount logo is what kind of looks like a blue and white version of the "Rising Circle" logo (with "'''A Gulf+Western Company'''" being smaller and the copyright message appearing at the bottom of the white mountain) except the word "{{Font|Times New Roman|'''''Television'''''}}" is not present. Also, the copyright stamp appears when the picture zooms in. | ||
'''Trivia:''' A similar version of this logo was used as the print logo for Paramount's record division of the time, Dot Records, from 1968 to 1971. | '''Trivia:''' A similar version of this logo was used as the print logo for Paramount's record division of the time, Dot Records, from 1968 to 1971. | ||
