Visuals: Two variants exist:
- One variant shows 4 white lines over a blue background zooming and folding in various directions as the camera pans around. As the screen zooms into one of the lines, the screen zooms back out to see four more lines above moving in the same direction before 4 lines (2 of each segment) turn to move away from the camera whilst the other lines continue zooming until they reach the white text "USA". As they do so, they appear on the right side of said text as five lines in a downward waving pattern.
- Another variant is set on a white background, where there are three lines that are all red. The lines are seen zooming and turning (this time smoothly), as well as "separating" before reaching the company name (in red) and forming the same waving symbol as shown in the other logo.
Technique: 2D computer animation.
Audio: A 2000s-esque rock tune.
