Logo: On a white background, we see a man in a tattered red shirt and tattered brown khaki shorts struggling to prevent a large roll of filmstrip from rolling downhill by first holding the filmstrip on his back and then turning around to push the film back up. The words "HIGHEST," "COMMON," "DENOMINATOR" and "PRODUCTIONS" are all stacked on top of each other along the lower right hand side, while the filmstrip is slanted in a hill-like pattern and separating the words "COMMON" and "DENOMINATOR."
FX/SFX: The man pushing and pulling the large roll of filmstrip, the shuffling of his legs and feet as he's pushing and pulling, the wobbling of the line of filmstrip.
