• The voice of the boy is supplied by Nathan Couturier, the son of the show's supervising sound editor, Thierry Couturier.

FX/SFX: The film effects.

Music/Sounds: We hear the sound of a film reel running, followed by a boy saying "I made this!".

Availability: It can be seen on The X-Files (including its revival seasons in 2016 and 2018), Millennium and The Lone Gunmen. It is expected to be seen on the upcoming X-Files spinoff, The X-Files: Albuquerque.

Editor's Note: The recording quality is a little off, but was done purposely. The atmosphere and sounds can be more than a little creepy, but it’s a popular logo with fans of The X-Files.
