Logo (2001)

Note: The logo is seen at 1:07.

Visuals: On a black background, a cyan line slides in from the left, stopping at the right to form the "CARTOON" word from the 1992-2004 Cartoon Network logo with the "AIR" on it. After that, the white line slides in from the right, the text "stunts packaging advertising short form." types in underneath the line, and the turquoise ripples from the 1999-2018 Cartoon Network Productions endtag appear.

Technique: 2D computer animation.

Audio: A sound of a whoosh accompanied by a noise that sounds like ripping throughout, followed by a slide whistle, the sounds of the computer keyboard typing, and a boing with Frank Welker saying "Yeah!".

Availability: Seen on three DVD volumes of The Best of Cartoon On-Air, which consists of classic CN promos, commentaries and behind the scenes.
