Variants:
 * The opening shows a white-red caravan with the logo design onto it, the caravan travels to different places throughout the logo. Between all of that happening, over five numerous cartoons are spotted in the video. Later on, it shows footage of two children standing on rocks which is onto a statue. A sad face is seen and moves onto a happy face. Three more cartoons appear after that, then the faces re-appear with the sad face changing into a happy face.
 * The closing shows the same caravan as before, but starts off in a forest. Later on, four children are seen sitting on a statue and they are waving at the caravan go past them. The next scene shows the same footage from the opening with the caravan going past a building. Like before, a sad face is seen and moves onto a happy face. The caravan soonly goes past a farm and houses until it soonly disappears after it goes through a forest (which possibly is the same at the beginning of the closing). The main logo fades in which is exactly the same except below the logo design, it reads out:
