Nickname: "The Pole Jumper"

Logo: On a black background, we see a silhouette of a man jumping on a sports pole. The picture proceeds as a stroboscope animation, collecting together nine still shots of the jumping process, each one glowing purple as they appear. "Tig Productions" in a Times New Roman font, fades in below. Then the picture (except for the text) is wiped into blue color.

Variant:


 * On the later version of Wyatt Earp, the logo in in a lighter blue

FX/SFX: The flashing on pictures fading-in, the color change. Simple, but effective animation.

Music/Sounds: A flute piece with strings playing throughout (composed by Alan Silvestri), or the closing theme of the movie.

Availability: Common. Can be seen at the beginning of Dances with Wolves (on some recent prints, it does not appear at all in the original version) and Wyatt Earp. Other films like The Bodyguard, Message in a Bottle, and For the Love of the Game have the logo at the end, while many other films don't have it.

Editor's Note: None.
