Visuals: On a black background, there is a filmreel spinning, then evolving into a black sun with blue outline as puffs of blue light puff out of it, eventually forming the text "Cinerenta". As this happens, it evolves into a "C" with blue triangles. The name then shines right to left, causing a flash taking up the entire screen as the shine gets to the "C".

Variant: On international prints of The Contender, a still version of the logo with "Gesellschaft für Internationale Filmproduktion mbH" below it was used instead, plastering the DreamWorks logo. The "C" is also light blue.

Technique: 2D computer animation.

Audio: A classical piece of music with a warp sound at the end. The Contender variant used the music from the DreamWorks logo.

Availability: Seen on films from the time such as The Devils Rejects and The Contender.
