Shaukat Art Production (Pakistan)

Background
Shaukat Art Production was a Pakistani film studio founded in 1947 by film director Syed Shoukat Hussain Rizvi.

Logo (May 23, 1947)


Logo: On a gray background, we see a figurine of big stylized letters, SAP. Above that is a crescent with something looking like a hand grabbing a thin curvy sword. A ribbon with the text "SHAUKAT ART PRODUCTIONS" swerves below the figurine. A white flare can be seen behind the crescent and the sword.

FX/SFX: None.

Music/Sounds: A single long note, followed by a loud male announcer speaking deeply in Urdu.

Availability: Only seen on Jugnu.

Editor’s Note: The oldest Pakistani logo on the wiki, given that the country was being formed at that time. The booming announcer has startled some, but it depends on if you think Pakistani announcers are scary.

Logo (August 30, 1968)


Nicknames: "SAP from Hell", "Thunderstorm over Lake Shaukat", "Stormy Waters"

Logo: Ripples of dark clouds roll above a lake. As lightning brightens the sky several times, the same figurine from the 1st logo rises up from the lake (the S in "PRODUCTIONS" is missing). A small flare appears on top of the sword after the figurine stops rising.

FX/SFX: The ripples, lightning striking, the figurine rising, the flare, which appear to be live-action.

Music/Sounds: Sounds of a thunderstorm, followed by a male announcer speaking in Urdu (the announcer is different and speaks the same dialogue from the 1st logo).

Availability: Seen on Aashiq.

Editor’s Note: For a Pakistani logo created in 1968, this has cool visual effects. However, the thunder can be startling for those that (most likely) don't live in Pakistan.
