Why Playology?
Playology recognizes that your brand is your passion and we are passionate about it too.
For many companies the natural evolution to take their products to the next level and to reach a new audience is by extending your brand beyond it's core and extending it's storytelling and amplifying it with licensing opportunities and brand management possibilities.
"...you need to keep that connection going - that architecture. You want the licensing group talking to the motion picture group talking to the on-location group to create an experience...The outside world and the client are asking for it too."
- Ari Emanuel
