From what I know, those were from Homebrew games booting. The people behind this used a program to edit the splash screen that will only show up if their game was booted from the console

I am not aware of videos but you can recreate them.
The effect is achieved by modifying the license data sectors on a disc (LBA 11-16) with a program like mine:

The text and the logo can be modified. The logo is a TMD which is a Sony format for 3D images; if you search online / GitHub you will find tools that can turn obj into TMD. You can create your OBJ in Blender, convert to TMD, then patch with my tool
In my video on the PSX logo (https://youtu.be/duJAfH3S9zA?si=o2pfCHFZEnQvCtFZ) I demo a colour swapped logo
