Sony Japan has pulled a PS4 highlight trailer from its Youtube channel after accusations that some parts of the animated sequences that accompanied the game footage were plagiarized. The Winter Lineup Music Video was made to show off various games that would be coming to the PlayStation 4 over the next few winter months between animated sequences that were directed by Canadian animator Kevin Bao. However, it was quickly discovered that several of these animations were copied from other sources.
The stolen animations were first noticed by animater Oleg Kositsyn, who saw that part of his ?Last Word? animation was ripped off frame-by-frame in the Winter Lineup Music Video. Following that, French animation site Catsuka went through and found various other examples of stolen animations. Some are stolen from animated movies and TV shows, such as segments that copy FLCL and Steven Universe: The Movie. Others are taken from Youtube shorts, with animations like the 2018 shorts ?Mailed It? and ?Orphée? by animator Gobelins.
