Background

Gemstone Studios was Sony's secondary independent film & television company and the boutique production unit of Sony Pictures Television, seeking underrepresented female-led narratives in their stories. The company was folded into Sony Pictures Television in November 2022.

Logo (August 17, 2019-May 8, 2023)

Visuals: On a black background, the Sony logo appears. It fades out for a second, and starts building up its signature lens flare, similar to the Sony Pictures Television Studios logo. Then, after the lens fare and the Sony logo fades out, the words "GEMSTONE STUDIOS" is shown in white lettering (in a font called Avenir Next), as both words appear separately from left to right, acting like a lower third. The "S" and "T" are connected together like the letters in the Star Wars logo. Above the words, there is a customized animated flower icon, fading in after the lens fare. Along with that is "a Sony Company" fading in below afterwards.

Variant: On Carter, the Sony logo comes first, along with the lens flare, and then the full animation of the flower is shown, along with the animated logo. The byline is in uppercase and spaced out. The same variant appeared on Absentia, but the logo appears to be normal and the ding appears to be a little longer as well.

Technique: 2D animation.

Audio: The Sony ding or silent.

Availability: It was seen on season 2 of Carter, season 3 of Absentia, and the 2021 iteration of Fantasy Island.

+'''Visuals:''' On a black background, the [[Sony Entertainment|Sony]] logo appears. It fades out for a second, and starts building up its signature lens flare, similar to the Sony Pictures Television Studios logo. Then, after the lens fare and the Sony logo fades out, the words "'''GEMSTONE''' STUDIOS" is shown in white lettering (in a font called Avenir Next), as both words appear separately from left to right, acting like a lower third. The "'''S'''" and "'''T'''" are connected together like the letters in the ''Star Wars'' logo. Above the words, there is a customized animated flower icon, fading in after the lens fare. Along with that is "a Sony Company" fading in below afterwards.
-'''Nicknames:''' "Animated Flower", "Sony's Lower Third", "Lens Fare Bloom"
+'''Variant:''' On <u>''Carter''</u>, the Sony logo comes first, along with the lens flare, and then the full animation of the flower is shown, along with the animated logo. The byline is in uppercase and spaced out. The same variant appeared on ''Absentia'', but the logo appears to be normal and the ding appears to be a little longer as well.
-'''Logo:''' On a black background, we see the Sony logo. It doesn't fade in, but it fades out for a second, and starts building up it's signature lens fare. Then, after the lens fare and the Sony logo fades out, the words, "'''GEMSTONE''' STUDIOS" is shown in white lettering, (in the font called "Avenir Next") as both words appear, separately, from left to right, acting like a lower third. The "'''S'''" and "'''T'''" are connected together like the letters in the ''Star Wars'' logo. And above the words is a customized animated flower icon, fading in after the lens fare. Along with that, is the byline that reads: "A Sony Company" fading in after a few moments.
+'''Technique:''' 2D animation.
-'''Variants:''' As only seen on ''Carter'', the Sony logo comes first, along with the lens fare, and then the full animation of the flower is shown, along with the animated company's name. Almost at the end of that byline, the second byline: "A Sony Company" is now in uppercased letters, and letter spaced, which now reads: "A S O N Y C O M P A N Y" below the company's name.
-'''FX/SFX:''' Only the flashing and the flower spins.
+'''Audio:''' The Sony ding or silent.
+'''Availability:''' It was seen on season 2 of ''Carter'', season 3 of ''Absentia'', and the 2021 iteration of ''Fantasy Island''.
-'''Music/Sounds:''' Only the Sony ding can be heard. Sometimes, an announcer promotes the next show or it's nothing at all.
-'''Availability:''' Common and rare. It can be seen on such shows like ''Carter'', ''Absentia'', and the 2021 remake of ''Fantasy Island''.
-'''Editor's Note:''' Some may be confused if it's a new replacement of "Sony Pictures Television" or viewers might not like it.
