1st Logo
(June 23, 2006-May 30, 2008)

Logo: The entire logo is a live-action remake of the first logo with a more detailed environment. We first pan out of the man's cloak, which is flapping around fiercely in the wind. As the camera pans away from the man out to a more comfortable distance, more of the environment of the logo is revealed. The background is now a stormy sky with a gradient crimson-gray color and a mountain-canyon landscape, which can be seen at the bottom of the screen. Lightning strikes all around the logo throughout. The man is revealed to be standing on a ledge, and as the camera pans away from him he slowly raises his arms upward, as if to embrace the stormy weather. As the camera stops at a comfortable position, the word INTREPID, in a sky blue-white gradient color, zoom outward into the action. As it does, lightning strikes very close to the man, creating a bright flash on the screen. When the flash is over, the finished logo is revealed in place-the action is now boxed against a black background, with the word "INTREPID" now still and positioned below the logo. "PICTURES" also appears after the flash, positioned directly under "INTREPID." The boxed action within the logo continues until the logo fades out.
Trivia: The logo was made by Picture Mill, and the live-action man is played by Christian Roberts.
FX/SFX: Mostly live-action, with use of chroma-key technology for the background and some minimal use of CGI for the text of the logo company.
Music/Sounds: Sounds of thunder and howling wind.
Availability: Can be seen on The Raven, The Cold Light of Day, among others.
Editor's Note: The logo is quite mellower than its predecessor with the more realistic/modern effects. Some people who preferred the animated first logo might also dislike this logo for its use of live-action.
