The song "The great divide" by Jonathan Elias (from the album "American River") is playing. We see a brilliant blue sky, the bright sun in the corner. Then, we pan down see a glacier below, also blue. Next, we see a square cave near the top of the glacier in a closer-up view of the glacier's peaks. The scene switches to an overhead shot of dried leaves on the ground. They are muted fall colors: red, orange, yellow, pale green. A wider shot shows a similar dark square hole in the leaves. Leaves are flowing all around, as well. Next, it's waves crashing against a rocky shore. Just barely visible, another square hole. A bare tree, it's branches in contrast to the ochre sky behind it is shown. Another square is visible in the upper branches. We then pan by some wavy sand dunes, past another square hole. Snowy mountain tops with clouds and sunlit breaking through are next. A closer shot shows a square hole through to top of a peak. This hole becomes the transition to a white screen and a blue Valspar color square. Then, we see many color square in a grid, and a caption that says "thousands of colors". It shifts back to the blue square and a "exceptional durability" as the caption. That morphs into a can of Valspar paint, with "the beauty goes on valspar.com " as the caption, also "available at Lowe's".
