Logo: On a black background, several blue lines rise from the screen and return to feature the words "N U--I M A G E" with barely-visible dark blue trails, which stand on a surface with a reflection. Then the logo fades to a twisted filmstrip on a blue spotlight with the words "NU IMAGE" with both parts of the word on opposite sides.

Variant: A short variant was spotted on The Peacekeeper.

FX/SFX: The movement of lines, fading to the other logo.

FX/SFX: The streak passing by.

Music/Sounds: A hissing sound when the logo zooms, and a loud laser-like swoosh when the streak appears. Then it's followed by a strange wiggling orchestral fanfare with a dramatic end. Also, humming is present.
