This is my sandbox. Here, I can make pages for mainspace without having to make draft articles (alternatively, I can import contents from here into draft pages as well).
Sony Pictures High Definition Center
Background
The Sony Pictures High Definition Center was part of Sony Pictures Entertainment. Not much is known about it, other than it provided high-res images of the 1992 Columbia Pictures torch lady and TriStar Pictures pegasus that were used for the 2001 Columbia TriStar Home Entertainment logo.

Harmonix Music Systems
Background
Established on May 10, 1995 by Alex Rigopulos and Eran Egozy, Harmonix Music Systems, Inc. (doing business as Harmonix) is an American video game developer based in Boston, Massachusetts. When first formed, it was funded with about $100,000 and had nearly zero revenue over the first five years. It made musical products and was built on the premise that the experience of performing music could become accessible to those who would otherwise have trouble learning a traditional instrument.
Around 1999, the company moved to video game development, releasing its first game, FreQuency, in 2001. In 2004, RedOctane approached Harmonix about developing what would become Guitar Hero.
In September 2006, not long after Activision acquired RedOctane, Viacom acquired Harmonix for $175 million. Over the next four years, Harmonix created the Rock Band franchise and Dance Central for MTV Games.
In late December 2010, Viacom sold Harmonix to Harmonix-SBE Holdings LLC, a holding company for the family office of investor Jason Epstein. The company continued to release Rock Band and Dance Central games, as well as Fantasia: Music Evolved and most recently, Fuser.
In November 2021, the company was acquired by Epic Games.
