Background

Wakaliwood, also known as Ramon Film Productions, is a Ugandan film studio that was founded by Isaac Godfrey Geoffrey Nabwana (a.k.a Nabwana I.G.G.) in 2005 in the slum of Wakaliga, located in Uganda's capital city of Kampala. It is known for bringing low-budget exploitative action movies to the Ugandan film market, and its most known work is Who Killed Captain Alex, which has garnered a cult following.

1st Logo (201?)

Notice: this template has been replaced by {{Guidance detail}}

Logo: On a black background, we see, below white text listing the company's phone number, the logo for Ramon Film Productions, which is a seafoam green combination of the letters R, P and F. After approximately five seconds, cyan text reading RAMON FILM PRODUCTIONS appears below the logo before the letters of the text quickly enlarge and shrink one-by-one, this repeating once.

FX/SFX: The text appearing, the letters enlarging one-by one.

Music/Sounds: The trailer's audio. For the scene with the logo, a suspenseful music piece accompanied by the narration of two video jokers, one of which sounds high-pitched.

Availability: Seen on the trailer of Who Killed Captain Alex.

Editor's Note: None.

2nd Logo (2010, 2016)

Notice: this template has been replaced by {{Guidance detail}}

Logo: TBA.

FX/SFX: The template and the logo.

Music/Sounds: Forming sounds are heard while the male VJ of the film says "Yes yes, OK. This is VJ Emmie, live in the studios from Wakaliwood, Uganda. Get ready. Ramon Film Productions. Yah, yah, yah, OK. Tighten your seatbelts."

Availability: Seen on Who Killed Captain Alex and Bad Black. The original version of Who Killed Captain Alex was lost due to a power outage, so the only way to watch it nowadays is the "VJ" (video joker) version of the film, which has a man commenting over the film, translating words into English, and making random jokes.

Editor's Note: None.
