1st Logo (2004-2005)
Logo: On a blue background with changing clouds, a rotating object spins into the screen with the number 19. The words CLOUD NINETEEN form from left to right. After the logo stops, a code background appears over the logo. The text shines as well.

Technique: The logos and text moving and spinning.

Music/Sounds: A whirring tune followed by a few beeping sounds.

Availability: Rare. Seen at the end of the MGM DVD release of Bookies.

2nd Logo (2005-2009)
Logo: On a white background, it fades into the spinning Cloud Nineteen logo. It is also invisible on a cloudy grey background. The camera starts moving to the right and after it stops slowly spinning, underneath the Cloud Nineteen text, it says "DVD", "Motion", "Sound" and "Edit", and after that the logo fades onto a white background with the zoomed out logo. On top of the Cloud Nineteen logo it says "Menu Design, Music Composition, & Authoring Has Been Provided By", and below it is the address "3767 Overland Ave. #104 Los Angeles, California 90034". Below the address is the phone number 310.839.5400 and the url "www.cloud19.com" is down below.

Variants:
 * On a few DVDs, the logo starts off as usual but after its completed, instead of fading to a white background with a still version of the logo, it fades quickly into a black background with the still shot of the zoomed out logo. Above it reads "DVD Production Provided By" and down below is the url. This was used from 2006 until 2009.
 * Another variant still has the logo starting off as usual but just as its completed, the "DVD", "Motion", "Sound" and "Edit" are colored green instead of white. It then fades into the still logo in the black background without the url below.

Technique: The Cloud Nineteen logo spinning and its transition to a still version of the logo. The animation looks pretty good, blending both a animated logo then transition to a still version of the logo with its url and information down below (a la DVCC).

Music/Sounds: A rising synth tune with whooshes just as the Cloud Nineteen logo spins, then liquid sounds once "DVD". "Motion", "Sound" and "Edit" fade in.
