Logo: On a black background, we see many white letters falling from the sky. Then a blue box fades in as the letters settle inside, forming "MRC" in the blue left part with a black rectangle containing the words "MEDIA RIGHTS CAPITAL" on the right. All of the text is in a Tahoma font.

Variants:

On the Shorts game for Nintendo DS, the background is white.
On television shows and Shorts: Episode 0, the logo is still.
