Then, via a "rippling" effect, a video  of a sunset sky (you can see the clouds moving) over a beach wipes in.  Many lavender circles are shown in two rows, as if they were spotlights.  A human eye then zooms in below the circles and stops very close to the  screen. A moon then fades in over the iris and pupil of the eye. The  silhouette of many theater seats and a couple kissing each other in the  middle of them fades in at the bottom of the screen. Finally, the words  "A HIKON FILM" fade in over the moon via "rippling" effect, arranged  like this:<br/><br/></font></div><div align="center"><font color="#c410e8" face="Times" size="3">A</font></div><div align="center"><font color="#c410e8" face="Times" size="3">HIKON</font></div><div align="center"><font color="#c410e8" face="Times, Times New Roman, serif" size="3">FILM</font></div><font size="3"><font color="#333333" face="Arial, Verdana, Helvetica, sans-serif"><br/><u>FX/SFX</u>: The rippling effects, the clouds moving, the zooming, and the fading.<br/></font><font color="#333333" face="Arial, Verdana, Helvetica, sans-serif"><br/><u>Music/Sounds</u>:  A "coming at you" synth theme, followed by some people chanting  repeatedly "Hikon, Hikon, Hikon...!" until we hear a shattering glass sound.

The company is only credited to four releases, each sporting psychedelic cover art. Credited releases include <i>Fox Bat</i>, <i>Dial Rat</i>, <i>The Sadist</i>, and <i>Jazz on a Summer's </i></font><i>Day</i>.<br/><br/><u>Editor's Note</u>: This is known in the logo community for its psychedelic look, strange music and animation. The 2nd announcer can also unnerve first-time viewers, and make others laugh.</font></div>
