Visuals: There is an -green gradient map of Sardinia over a gradient background. The map flips horizontally to the left to reveal a thick 1, with the top left corner of the numeral briefly shining, and chunks of the Sardinian map comprised of small white squares appears inside the number, piece by piece. Then, four of the squares individually turn, symbolizing the location of four major Sardinian cities (Nuoro, Oristano, Sassari and Cagilari). After that, white text reading "SARDEGNA UNO" zooms out from the bottom-left, casting a shadow. The text places itself on the right side of the number in a vertical arrangement and the top corner of the 1 briefly shines.

Technique: 2D computer animation.

Audio: An echoed drumroll, accompanied by a short, proud fanfare and four synth dings, concluding with a chorus singing the company name accompanied by a four-note synth fanfare with a held note at the end.
