Nicknames: "Nanny Nanny Boo-Boo", "First Films/Scope" The Offensive fanfare Hong kong logo

Logo: On a dark blue background, we see a dim logo. The logo then becomes brighter to reveal that it is a large brown "1" with a smaller "1" inside of it that is the same color as a wreath surrounding the large "1". After the "1" zooms out, the large words "FIRST" and "SCOPE" fade in on either side of the "1", along with some yellow Chinese characters below. The logo sparkles throughout.

Variant: Sometimes, the word "FILMS" instead of the word "SCOPE" is seen.

FX/SFX: The brightening and zooming out of the "1", the fading in of the text, and the sparkling.

Music/Sounds: A drumroll followed by a fanfare with the first six notes borrowed from the common childish tune that is often sung "Nanny Nanny Boo-Boo".

Availability: Common on many films made in Hong Kong, such as the Mandarin film Ma Su Chen. Sometimes is plastered or preceded by the Media Asia logo. A very cut-off version can also be seen on a VHS copy of Women Warriors.

Editor's Note: None.
