1st Logo (2006-2011?)

Visuals: The sequence starts with a black and white scene from a movie, which shows a female hand reaching toward and rubbing the stomach of a lingerie-clad woman, who is only seen from the waist down with a gold necklace around her torso. It then fades to a grainy black and white background. On the background, the word "SEVERIN" with the upper half of a woman's head (which looks like Bettie Page) above it. It is shown at an angle. The URL "www.severin-films.com" fades in on the bottom right of the logo.

Variant: A still version without the URL exists.

Technique: A mix of live-action and 2D computer animation.

Audio: A slow-paced guitar tune.

Availability: Seen on DVDs of old exploitation films released by the company.
