Logo: On a white background, a CGI but 2D styled microphone appears, flipping it's speaking part and spinning to the back so we can see it's blue and black. As this happens, it moves to a position tilted to the right, and the text "The Smiley Group, Inc." flies from the top and right sides of the screen to the microphone.
Technique: CGI animation.
Music/Sounds: A piano tune playing against a hip-hop drum beat.
Availability: Seen on The Tavis Smiley Show on PBS.
