Saban Entertainment: Difference between revisions

'''Visuals:''' On a {{color|#E1CBF6|light indigo}}/white gradient background (in which a few stars can be faintly seen), we see a static shot of a {{color|#C900FF|purple}} (or {{color|#860000|dark red}}) Saturn-like planet, with a ring. In the middle of the planet and the ring, the word "{{color|gold|S A B A N}}" is seen in a font similar to Pac-Man. Below it is the word "{{color|gold|P R O D U C T I O N S}}". On the bottom half of the planet to the left, there are five {{color|gold|yellow}} lines.

* On ''Kidd Video'', the Saban logo is seen in a box in the upper left corner of the screen, and the [[DIC Entertainment|DiC]] logo in the bottom right; the corner of the Saban logo overlaps the DiC logo. They are up against an {{color|#FFA700|orange}} background with a streak in the middle.

* On the pilot episode of ''Kidd Video'', the Saban logo is seen in the bottom right corner and the DiC logo in the upper left, which overlaps Saban. They are on a black background with a streak in the middle.

* On a tape of ''The New Archies'', the logo fades out early.

'''Audio:''' A 9-note synthensized theme with a descending synth sound, ending in five hits. Composed by Shuki Levy.

* The theme was high-pitched and sped-up on the ''Hulk Hogan's Rock 'n Wrestling'' special "All Time Champ".

* On ''ALF: The Animated Series'', the final few notes of the theme are used.

* On ''Kidd Video'', the end theme plays over it.

* On the pilot episode of ''Kidd Video'', the 1984 DiC music is heard.

'''Variant:''' A still variant exists.

*There are two short versions. The first one is the 2nd half of the logo theme. The other has the first three notes and the slamming jail door sound.

*Sometimes, the "slamming door" sound is removed.

*The music was altered in 2010 for the remastered version of ''Mighty Morphin Power Rangers''. This time it consists of a series of loud whooshes that culminate in a different "slamming door" sound.

*For most of the '90s shows such as ''Mighty Morphin' Power Rangers'' and ''VR Troopers'', the end of the show's theme plays over it instead.

*It can be seen on ''Mighty Morphin Power Rangers'' and ''Mighty Morphin Alien Rangers'', alongside its spinoffs ''VR Troopers'' and ''Masked Rider'' episodes until "The Dash" (though Netflix and YouTube prints of all those said shows plaster all Saban logos with the 2011 [[Saban Brands]] logo instead).

'''Visuals:''' A group of children, who are ethnically diverse and wearing what appears to be spandex jumpsuits (some are wearing {{color|green}}, some are wearing {{color|red}}, and some are wearing {{color|gold|yellow}}) with patterns all over them, are shown in a circle, looking upward as the camera revolves around and zooms out for a second. Then, it fades to a shot of the children from above as they take a piece of {{color|#FFB100|orange-yellow}} cloth with a globe pattern imprinted on it and throw it in the air as they are standing on opposite ends of a small "orb". Then, it fades to another shot of the children, who are shown raising their hands up and releasing {{color|#755612|brown}}, spherical objects into the air as they fade out as the orb (which resembles an Earth globe with {{color|gold|yellow}} water and {{color|red}} and {{color|green}} continents) "transforms" into the Saban logo, which resembles a shiny {{color|gold}} crescent moon on the right with 3 "swishing" lines on the left. The word "SABAN" appears below the logo. The Saban logo zooms-in slightly. This is done on a cloudy sky background that seems to converge towards the center.

*A "short" version that only has the "hands-up" part of the animation with an abridged version of the music (two different versions were used).

*A "medium" version that lacks the close-up shot of the children. The music plays in its entirety (though sometimes only the first six notes and the last note of the jingle plays).

*The long version has all of the shots in the logo and the complete music.

*The logo was still on the video game ''Power Rangers Zeo vs the Machine Empire''.

*Some Saban shows distributed outside North America have "INTERNATIONAL" at the bottom.

*A weird stretched variant of the Saban International logo also exists which was seen on the TV movie ''On Thin Ice: Going For The Gold''.

*On ''Rusty: A Dog's Tale'' and ''Turbo: A Power Rangers Movie'', the logo is filmed.

*When ABC Family (now Freeform) reran ''Au Pair 2'' in 2009, the short version of the logo was slowed down (with the ending theme) as an attempt to plaster the [[Fox Family Productions]] logo that was originally used there. The split-screen credits followed.

**Another slowed-down variant appeared on certain episodes of ''Iron Man'' on Disney XD, plastering over the [[New World/Genesis Distribution|Genesis Entertainment]] or [[New World Entertainment]] logos (most episodes used the short variant but without the slowdown).

*The short version had 7 notes of the theme.

*Sometimes, the "INTERNATIONAL" version uses 10 notes that are rearranged.

**High tone and low tone variants both also exist, with the low tone variant appearing on some overseas prints of the CGI ''Action Man'' series and on Unis TV broadcasts of ''Big Wolf on Campus'' in the Canadian province of Québec, respectively.

*A double pitched (very high tone) variant with the 7-note music also exists which was seen on later episodes of UPN's ''The Mouse and the Monster''.

*The 10 notes version is sometimes shortened to 6 notes for both the normal and "INTERNATIONAL" versions. This appears on a few TV movies, such as ''On Thin Ice: Going For The Gold'' and some shows such as ''Space Goofs'' and ''Diabolik'', respectively.

*One season 3 episode of the French dub of ''Bobby's World'' have a weird monaural reverb effect.

*On international airings and the Australian DVD release of ''Au Pair'', instead of the children's laughing, it plays the 2 first notes of the 1998 Fox Family Productions logo before the music plays normal. This only appears at the end of the movie.

*Toon Disney/Disney XD prints of ''Iron Man'''s first season had the Genesis Entertainment music playing under the logo (in one case, switching from the 1994 music to the 1989 theme); some international prints of the 1994 ''Spider-Man'' have the 1988 [[New World Entertainment]] theme playing under the logo.

*In other cases, the ending theme of the show is played.

*On ''Rusty: A Dog's Tale'' and ''Turbo: A Power Rangers Movie'', the opening theme of the film is played over the logo.
