As viewers demand newer and
more original programing, PlayStation delivers with its new superhero themed
adventure Powers, shot in Georgia.
Powers is a
television adaptation of a comic book series of the same name, created by
Brian, Michael Bendis and Michael Avon. It will be the first original program
produced by the entertainment conglomerate, Sony, as well as the first original
series produced exclusively through a gaming network.
The premise of the series is a world where superpowers
are a real thing that needs to be regulated. The narrative follows detectives
Christian Walker and Deena Pilgrim as they solve cases in a special homicide
department dedicated to crimes involving superpowers.
Key assistant location manager for the show, Thomas
Wohlford, sees the value of original content programing. “There will be a place
for classic television, but single providers are the future”, said Wohlford. As
a member of the support team for the show Wohlford has behind the scenes look
at all the hard work that goes into something new. “Its unlike other shows I’ve
worked on, I really want to see where it goes, said Wolhford.
In the
past two years Netflix alone has had eight original programs and has renewed
several previously network syndicated shows. In the next two years they have
plans to expand that list even more with remakes and totally original content.
Georgia will certainly make itself part of that growth.
