Opening version
Closing version

Logo: On a black background, a set of blue lines resembling a globe zooms out. Suddenly, the lines start to move, transforming into a pictorial of a sailing boat. The signature "Ted Turner" is written. When the writing is almost finished, a box showing the panorama of an ocean and a gold line below the handwriting fades in. The text "TED TURNER PICTURES" is formed by the letters joining one another. The box becomes solidified, shines, and the "boat" moves and makes a stop.

Variant: At the end of Gods and Generals, the logo is on a blue gradient background with a line to represent the horizon and a river shimmering below the box, which later turns solid. In this case, "TED TURNER PICTURES" is in white.

Technique: CGI animation.

Music/Sounds: A six note fanfare, with the last note held out.

Availability: Only seen on the 2003 movie Gods and Generals.
