Logo: It begins with old black & white footage of a movie set, complete with cast and crew, camera and boom. The camera eases in slowly, then a black background with an etching of "JW" with the letters conjoined, and "PRODUCTIONS" fades in. Then Jerry Weintraub's signature, in red, fades in, in front of the "JW". As it does this, "PRODUCTIONS" turns white.

Variants:
 * On The Karate Kid, the movie set footage is sepia-toned.
 * On Westworld (2016 HBO TV series), and on the March 15, 2000 airing of Vegas Vacation on CBS due to split screen credits, the logo is still.

Technique: Live action and 2D animation.

Music/Sounds: It begins with some violins, then it goes into a lush horn piece. Throughout the logo and the music, it begins with people talking, then as the logo fades in, a bell rings, then a sound of a clapboard and then the director says "Action!" when the signature fades in. It was silent on the Ocean's films and on The Karate Kid, the closing theme of the film was used. CBS version has the then generic theme playing over ("The Address is CBS!!").

Availability: Seen on films produced by Jerry Weintraub Productions; notable films include Vegas Vacation, Soldier, The Avengers (1998 film), the Ocean's series, The Karate Kid (2010 film) and Behind The Candelabra.
