Draft:Motorola Mobility

Background
Motorola is an American telecommunications company, originally founded in 1929 at Schaumburg, Illinois. Their mobile phone division was a pioneer in the time, established during the 1980s. Their earliest devices included the DynaTAC in 1983, the first of its time, followed by the MicroTAC "flip phone" in 1989 and the StarTAC "clam phone" in 1996. It had staged a resurgence by the mid-2000s with the RAZR series of phones. In the 2009 they focused on smartphones using Google's open-source Android mobile operating system. After having lost $4.3 billion from 2007 to 2009, the original Motorola company split into two independent public companies, Motorola Mobility and Motorola Solutions on January 4, 2011. All of Motorola's mobile phone business was then transferred to Motorola Mobility in that time. The mobility division was adquired by Google in 2012-2014, before Chinese company Lenovo bought them for $2.91 billion in the latter year.

In this circle, there are other circles of different colors. One of the circles is shown sticking outside this circle, having a light shade of blue with the Motorola logo at the center. In between these circles, there's the text "HELLOMOTO" in white with a blue outline. The circles then move into a grid of multiple circles of different colors, and the "HELLOMOTO" text is seen stretching out of view during one frame. The grid's colors ripple out in predominantly in. Then the Motorola logo emerges from the center, with the circles growing out from it. The grid then clears up as it leaves the Motorola logo on a white background.
