Logo (February 21, 2003)

• 

  Opening version

  Closing version

Visuals: On a black background, a set of blue lines resembling a globe zooms out. Suddenly, the lines start to move, transforming into a pictorial of a sailing boat. The signature "Ted Turner" is written. When the writing is almost finished, a box showing the panorama of an ocean and a gold line below the handwriting fades in. The text "TED TURNER PICTURES" is formed by the letters joining one another. The box becomes solidified, shines, and the "boat" moves and makes a stop.

Closing Variant: The logo is on a sky background with a line to represent the horizon and an ocean shimmering below the box. In this variant, the text is in a lighter color. The line shines from left to right, turning the ocean into a teal/light blue gradient background. The background fades out just before the logo does.

Technique: CGI.

Audio: A six note fanfare, with the last note held out.

Availability: Only seen on the 2003 movie Gods and Generals.
