|||
'''Nicknames''': "The In-Credit S.S." |
|||
'''Logo''': Just the in-credit Bengali text "Produced & Distributed by S.S. Productions Ltd." or "A S.S. Productions Ltd. Production & Release" on a superimposed background. |
|||
'''Variants''': |
|||
*Sometimes the print logo is added to the logo. |
|||
*''Goriber Bou'': On a dark blue background, we see a yellow circle (representing a spotlight or the Moon) with the words "Shabana presents" in Bengali. It then cuts to a set of Bengali words "A S.S. Productions Ltd. production & release" in the same thing. Some prints had the background in black. |
|||
*During the opening credits of ''Meyerao Manush'' and ''Shopner Purush'', we see an logo is in 3D. The logo spins and zooms out, and the Bengali words "Produced & Distributed by S.S. Productions (Pvt.) Ltd." fade in. |
|||
*''Swami Chintai'': Beside a red, curved filmstrip, we see the words "SHABANA PRESENTS" in a serif font, on the bottom-tight corner. At the upper-left corner is the Bengali translation. Both appear via a drop effect. When it transitions into the same thing via leaf-like effect, but the yellow words "'''MADE BY S.S.PRODUCTIONS Ltd. (BANGLADESH) & VOICE AND VISION ENTERPRISES (INDIA)'''" are used instead. "MADE BY" is in a Comic Sans font while the rest is in a bolded font. Atop the English text is the translation in Bengali in blue, separated by a red line. |
|||
'''FX/SFX:''' None, unless you count a film effect. ''Meyerao Manush'' and ''Shopner Purush'' have CGI animation and the text appearing. ''Swami Chintai'' has the ripples and the leaves. |
|||
'''Music/Sounds''': The opening theme of the film. |
|||
'''Availability''': Can be seen on many of S.S. Productions' films. |
