SBP Worldwide S.A.

Background
SBP Worldwide S.A. was a home video distributor that was founded on September 26, 1996 by Fabian Ariel Beries and Daniel Parise after the sale of Combien S.A. (which consists of Luicna/Live Video) from their relatives. In 2001, it bought out the assets of Transeuropa Video Entertainment and combined it to form TVE-SBP, which was in charge of 70% of the Argentine DVD titles. In 2015, Parise launched a division, SBP Cine, in order to bring successful major motion picture/home video distributors onto the market, and it distributed titles from all major studios from the next few years. Until 2021, it was the only major video distributor existing in the market, it was defunct due to the COVID-19 pandemic and the Argentinian video market was moved to digital and streaming.

1st Logo (1996-2002)
Logo: On a green background with moving people, continuing from the warning screen, we see the SBP Worldwide logo zooming out, in a design similar to the MDP Worldwide logo. It consists of the Earth globe with a yellow gradient "SBP" behind it, and below it was an underline with the word "WORLDWIDE" in spaced-out letters. Below it was "PRESENTA" or "ANTICIPA" appearing below in yellow.

Technique: The logo zooming out.

Music/Sounds: A sax theme, which are "I've Been Missin' You" by Kenny G or "Uncle Al" by Kenny G.

Availability: Seen on earlier SBP Worldwide videos of the era.

Legacy: It's a simple logo with only the zoom out and nothing at all, compared to the standards of 90s Argentine video logos.

2nd logo (2002-Early 2010s)
Logo: On a black background, a flying CD appears, leaves some trail and moves. As the disc goes left the golden S fades in, and it moves to the right so the other letters B and P would fade in. The disc places behind the word at the center, and flashes to change itself into an oval globe. A white line slides in. "S.A." fades in next to the SBP, and "WORLDWIDE" below the line.

Variant: Sometimes "PRESENTA" appears at the top-right.

Technique: Quite outdated 2D for early 2000s standards.

Music/Sounds: A majestic fanfare.

Availability: Appeared on Argentine home video releases from the company around the 2000s.

Legacy: This was a minor improvement compared to the previous logo, but the next one held up much better.

3rd logo (Early 2010s-2019)


Logo: On a space background, we see rainbow colored circle pieces and lines moving toward the direction. The pieces open, and we see silver colored words "SBP" in a Microgamma Italic font rise toward the screen. The camera pans toward the direction and settles in the center of the screen. The SBP logo then shines, and then the logo slowly zooms in.

Technique: The circle and line pieces moving, the rising of the words and the logo zooming, all incredible CGI.

Music/Sounds: A whooshing sound, then metallic sounds, and then it ends in a techno-synth rising synth note with drumbeats.

Availability: Common. Seen on SBP DVD and Blu-ray releases from the era.

Legacy: This was much an improvement over the previous two SBP logos, with amazing CGI from Argentine video logo standards.
