Revision as of 22:08, 7 October 2023

Not to be confused with PlayStation Productions and PlayStation Studios.

Background

This was the former production label for PlayStation for movies and TV shows, mostly based on PlayStation properties. After the failure of Ratchet & Clank, the label would be discontinued, alongside the shutdown of the revived Gramercy Pictures. Three years later, Sony Interactive Entertainment launched PlayStation Productions as a successor to the label. Despite this, the label would be reused on February 12, 2021 in the animated short, Ratchet & Clank: Life of Pie.

(March 10, 2015-July 19, 2016; February 12, 2021)

Logo: On a dark blue background, a shiny dot appears and forms a PlayStation shape, then we see the PlayStation shapes flying into their separate places, then rotate and fly back, until the shapes disappear and in place of it is a blue underline below the text "PlayStation" and under the line is the text "Originals" in the same font used for the word on top of the underline.

Variant: On Ratchet & Clank, the logo features clips from the movie on the shapes when they fly around.

Technique: CGI.

Audio: A dramatic but majestic fanfare that ends with a PlayStation-like ping. Composed by Ed Kocher and Christopher Lennertz.

Availability: Seen on Powers, the 2016 Ratchet & Clank film, and Ratchet & Clank: Life of Pie.
