FX/SFX: The pieces of the logo coming together; the Farsi text appearing.

Music/Sounds: A dramatic string piece.

Availability: Common. Seen on various Persian short and feature length films, live-action or animated, over the course of over 50 years. The logo made its first appearance on Amoo Sibilou whereas the in-credit variant debuted on The Bread and Alley. However, the on-screen variant is less common, due to many releases going straight to the opening scene or plastering by foreign distributors on international prints. In other words, the opening variant is pretty rare outside of Iran, but can be found on a German release of Life and Nothing More.... It can also be seen on some of Abbas Kiarostami's movies before the mid-1990's such as aforementioned film, So Can I, Solution, and Rangha. The enhanced variant debuted on A Flower for Maryam and the original variant was last seen on Farmer Duck. The former variant has been seen plastering the latter on many late 2000's prints of animated short films such as One is Not Enough. The in-credit variant is more common and intact on modern American prints of Children of Heaven and the Criterion Collection DVD release of Close-Up.
