Visuals: On a black background, we see a white outline, and inside, a yellow lightning bolt behind the red text. That text shows "WATCH" and on the bottom ahs "IT!" The text is inside the broken red circle outline. The logo blinks 5 times, switching the "!" with the "V," colored in maroon text instead of red, which is like the name that owned the company. After that, it kept "IT!" like that for a few more longer.
Technique: Traditional cel animation.
Audio: None.
