* Sometimes, on TV airings, the closing logo may be kept with the [[Sony Pictures Television]] (formerly the [[Columbia TriStar Television|Columbia TriStar Television Distribution]] logo) following afterwards or may be skipped ahead with the SPT/CTTD logo.


'''FX/SFX:''' The wings growing on the horse, the forming of the "T", and the text zooming out. A great mix of live-action and early CGI, done by R/Greenberg Associates.

*It is unknown if this was retained on VHS or DVD releases of ''Hyper Sapien: People from Another Star'', the Scorpion DVD of ''Where the Boys Are '84'' (don't expect it on the Blu-Ray), ''Love at Stake'', foreign releases of ''They Live'', or ''High Tide''. Don't expect it on VHS releases of ''Flashpoint'' and ''Made in U.S.A.''

*The trailer logo is rare and seen on previews of TriStar films from 1991-1993, such as ''Bugsy'', ''Candyman'', ''Sniper'', ''Cliffhanger'', and ''Sleepless in Seattle'' (though the latter uses the next logo on the main feature).

*Some TV airings of some movies have the closing version plastered with the [[Sony Pictures Television]] logo, while others have the closing version intact with the SPT logo playing afterwards, or sometimes not.


'''Editor's Note:''' The state-of-the-art animation of the time and the majestic fanfare makes this one of the most iconic movie logos of the 1980s.

'''Logo:''' We start out on a black background. Then we see part of a dark background, which slowly fades in and brightens to reveal that it is made up of dark cumulonimbus clouds with fog on the bottom. A white flash of light then starts to glow and gets bright, as it almost fills the background. A Pegasus appears from the far distance, as it spreads its wings out and takes a few steps, causing the fog to flow. "{{color|gold|'''T{{small|RI}}S{{small|TAR}}'''}}", in a shiny chiseled font, slowly fades in at the top of the screen with the letters "'''T'''" and "'''S'''" in a bigger font than the other letters as the flash dims away slowly. The Pegasus stops when its wings are fully spread out and the "{{color|gold|'''T{{small|RI}}S{{small|TAR}}'''}}" text fully appears. The text slowly shines as the fog still flows and the Sony byline fades in (described below).

* 2015-2020: After the [[Sony Entertainment]] logo transitions to this logo, we see the cloud formations of the previous logo shrouded in darkness, with a cerulean {{color|blue}} background partially illuminated by the bottom half of the screen. Then, a light shines up from the center and the clouds and background brighten, turning into full daylight. The clouds here are pure white and more ethereal in design, compared to the more realistic {{color|gold|golden}} clouds from the last logo. Just as the clouds light up, we see a white stallion gallop out from the glowing light towards us, with the light fading out shortly afterwards. The stallion opens its wings as it runs out, revealing itself to be a Pegasus; once it stops running towards the screen, it stands up on its hind legs, showing off its full wingspan in the process. Once it has done this, the "'''T{{small|RI}}S{{small|TAR}}'''" text from the previous logo (only more {{color|gold|golden}}) fades in, then the byline "'''a Sony Company'''" from the previous logo fades in after that. This was last used on the Hulu original film ''Happiest Season.''

* 2022-: Starting with the release of ''The Woman King,'' released on September 16, 2022, the Sony logo at the beginning is updated with a new animation based off it's June 2021 identity. It is unknown if the rest of the logo is updated.
