1st Logo
(1997-2001)
Nicknames: "Stylized S and Purple Circle", "Flying Dust"
Logo: On a black background, several purple, orange and white dots fly in and form a large stylized light orange "S" (which looks slightly similar to the Screen Gems "S from Hell", but not much) with a purple circle behind and the white words "SOUND SOURCE INTERACTIVE" in the same font used in the previous two logos while the background becomes a black/orange background. Moments later, the "S" and circle dissolve and "SOUND SOURCE INTERACTIVE" zooms-in to where it stops at on the screen. The background becomes black again.
FX/SFX: The dots forming the letter "S".
Music/Sounds: Zapping noises were heard when the dots fly in, followed by a bang sound. A flourish was heard when the logo excluding the text dissolves.
Availability: Rare. It can be seen on titles like The Land Before Time: Return to the Great Valley and Casper: Friends Around the World for PlayStation. A still version appeared on American Tail Animated Moviebook.
Editor's Note: None.
