Ted Turner Pictures

Background
This company was founded by Ted Turner in 2001.

(February 21, 2003)
Logo: On a black background, a set of lines resembling a globe zooms out. Suddenly, the lines start to move, transforming into a pictorial of a sailing boat. The signature "Ted Turner" is written. When the writing is almost finished, a box showing the panorama of an ocean and a line below the handwriting fades in. The text "serif" is formed by the letters joining one another. The box becomes solidified, shines, and the "boat" moves and makes a stop.

Closing Variant: The logo is on a sky background with a line to represent the horizon and an ocean shimmering below the box. In this variant, the text is in a lighter color. The line shines from left to right, turning the ocean into a /light blue gradient background. The background fades out just before the logo does.

Technique: CGI animation.

Music/Sounds: A six note fanfare, with the last note held out.

Availability: Only seen on the 2003 movie Gods and Generals.
