'''Logo:''' In an office setting, we see a bottle filled with {{color|orangered|orange red}} ink in it labeled with the company name in an Impact font, also colored in a {{color|gold}}-white gradient at the middle. After one of the music variants are heard, a hammer (which, however, if you look at the bottle very closely, you can see a hammer swinging down, as seen in the white light reflection) swings down and breaks the bottle, causing the ink in it to spread everywhere, covering up the whole screen.
