10 Minute Outfits: CLO Virtual Fashion Ushers in the Future of 3D Clothes with the Introduction of Marvelous Designer

Seoul, South Korea (PRWEB) June 13, 2012

Creating clothes has always been a hard road for CG artists. Always time-consuming, often arduous, this practice has long needed a program to do the dirty work of shaping, draping, and applying details to their digital assets. Artists, meet CLO Virtual Fashions Marvelous Designer (MD); a 3D clothes modeler whose professional-grade rendering and quick-click templates can take the pain out of complex clothing simulations.

Built on swift modeling tools and a mix-and-match layering system that can mimic all types of cloth variations, MD is how digital clothes get made faster. Speed features, like the ability to start from a template (like a shirt) helps 3D creators leap over the initial modeling stages that used to rob them of time and energy. 2D patterns selected from MDs library or created by other users can then be form-fitted to a 3D model quickly for an appealing and adjustable drape preview. Each pattern is easy to manipulate; giving the designer supreme flexibility around final looks in real-time.

Our goal is to help designers quickly make clothes that look and drape realistically, said Seungwoo Oh, Founder and CTO of CLO Virtual Fashion. Believability is what makes you stand out.

One of the many benefits of MDs physics-based draping technology is that it allows artists to sidestep a familiar modeling problem. Instead of artists being locked into the designs theyve modeled by hand, or the details theyve decided against, MD allows users to apply different outfits, details and clothing expressions to any piece theyve already started. Think the top needs to lose the ruffles? Or maybe needs a new pattern? Thats easy to change; no new modelling, backtracking, or starting over required. This versatility around new ideas helps designers focus their attention on patterns and form rather than detail sculpting and do-overs.

The functionality and interface of Marvelous Designer is extremely intuitive, said Joseph Drust, Senior Character Artist at Redstorm. Without even glancing at the Marvelous Designer tutorials, I was able to create a full dress in less than 10 minutes. You need this program if want to design 3D clothes at a professionals pace.

Plano, TX (PRWEB) August 23, 2012

Working Solutions, a pioneer in the hosted contact center model, is pleased to announce the addition of Scott Moberly, Sales Director and Ken Wheeley, Regional Sales Manager to its expanding sales team. Both bring over 20 years of sales and leadership experience in the telecommunications industry.

Moberly will be planning and directing the sales activities of the company. Wheeley will be responsible for identifying and closing new business opportunities as well as delivering on revenue targets to help in the overall growth and success of Working Solutions.

Scott and Ken are two talented, tech-savvy sales professionals who understand market trends and client needs. I am positive they will help take our company to the next level as well as contribute innovative ideas, said Tim Houlne, CEO of Working Solutions.

Founded in 1996 by company President and COO Kim Houlne, Working Solutions has grown from a single agent to a virtual call center community of more than 100,000 work-at-home professionals in North America over the past 17 years.

Working Solutions is an innovative company that continues to break boundaries. I believe our sales and marketing team is strategically ready to take the company to the next level, said Moberly, an alumnus from Indiana University, as well as a graduate of the Army Command & General Staff Officer Course.

I want to help companies understand that having agents work from home is a natural step in the evolution of the telecommunications industry. When you have the right partner using the right technology and processes, home-based agents are more productive and offer greater levels of customer service than their facilities based co-workers, said Wheeley, who received his degree from Cumberland University.

With the recent expansion of their sales and marketing team, Working Solutions continues to strategically plan for market growth with a focus on bringing greater value to clients, increasing customer satisfaction and providing positive return on investment.

ShoreGroup Announces Optimized CaseSentry Virtual Deployment Profile for Management of Cloud Services

New York, NY. (PRWEB) June 12, 2012

NEW YORK, NY. June 12, 2012 ShoreGroup, Inc., a premier professional services and software solutions firm, today announced the availability of an optimized virtual CaseSentry Systems Management deployment profile giving service providers greater scalability and flexibility in cloud management capacity. ShoreGroups virtual CaseSentry (vCS) management architecture allows for multi-tenant deployment that combines the benefits of true data segregation and security with seamless growth as service providers grow their clientele. Through integration to ShoreGroups FieldWatch management console, service providers have a multi-tenancy aggregation endpoint for centralized incident management. With the new virtual deployment profile the processor requirement per instance is reduced to as low as 500 MHz while reduced data store of call detail records and operational metrics is supported. The combination enables a higher density of CaseSentry instances to reside on each server, thereby reducing the physical server count, power consumption and related cost.

The new virtualized CaseSentry deployment profile also includes the full integration of Advanced Logic Profiles (ALPs) available in a traditional CaseSentry system. CaseSentry ALPs are a set of patented elements performing stateful processing on millions of simultaneous, complex systems and network management flows to determine the precise root cause of an incident. Traditional event driven management platforms lack stateful monitoring and cannot accurately process duplicate events, out-of-order events, and long time periods between related events, which results in improper modeling of complex application behavior causing both false-positive and false-negative results when chaining together assurance logic. Incorporation of ALPs in the virtualized CaseSentry deployment profile provides the effective management and visibility that service providers require to maintain the highest level of availability within their hosted and cloud environments.

By taking advantage of the optimized virtual CaseSentry deployment profile, service providers supporting complex unified communications and contact center services can take advantage of stateful flow processing to profitably support Day 2 or Software-as-a-Service (SaaS) offerings, said Christos Klardie, ShoreGroups Director of Contact Center Engineering. In this CaseSentry deployment model, service providers get the best of both worlds, a small footprint with powerful query and analysis capability providing the insight that operations personnel require.

ShoreGroup provides industry-leading management applications, maintenance services, professional services and product solutions for unified communications and contact centers, virtualized data centers and networks.
