Visuals: On a cloudy sky background, a stack of papers rotates in front of the background, flipping down multiple copies of the same paper. The papers are marked with the following text in Arabic, situated in the lower left corner:
تلفازيون
الإمارات العربية المتحدة
أبو ظبي
The papers then land on the cover page, which is a gold map of the Earth's continents on a embossed grid, and the camera zooms closer to the Indian Ocean, where it rotates until it stops closer to the Middle East. A chunk of land flies towards the screen, representing the UAE, and then lands squarely at the bottom portion of the screen. Various silver monoliths capped with gold tops then rise up from the ground, forming a large group of them of varying heights, and then most of them fade out. The remaining objects rotate toward the screen, revealing themselves as the Arabic text "الأخبار" in a stylized font, and then their silver back retracts into themselves, before the gold texture within it starts to rotate around before the intro transitions to the news studio.
Variants:
- An English variant exists, with the text translated accordingly.
- An French variant exists as well, but the text animates differently at the end: the letters "JOURNAL" appear one by one within the land, before it fades to them bouncing up once with footage of flames in it playing. The footage slows down when the music finishes.
Technique: CGI animation.
Audio: A triumphant synth fanfare briefly accompanied by timpani, with faint tinkling sounds when "الأخبار" forms.
