Logo: On a black BG, a leaf floats around and toward the silvery 3D words "MIDORI ENTERTAINMENT", landing in the center, causing water to ripple below. A spark flies around the stem of the leaf clockwise.

Variant: A later variant exists where the leaf flies to the point where it's off-center, before the words rise up as a ripple appears, apparently a pond with light reflecting off of it. Shadows are seen below the words.

Technique: CGI.

Music/Sounds: A gentle and beautiful synth choir, piano, and string tune. Later it was a 5-note piano.

Availability: Seen on old episodes of Animal Atlas. Season 8 episodes have the LongNeddle Entertainment logo.
