Los Angeles, CA (PRWEB) February 29, 2012

Director VW Scheich knew that his short film Wallenda — now on the festival circuit — was an ambitious project from the beginning, since it was going to be shot against a green screen, and all of its distinctive backgrounds a German tavern, circus tent and an opera house were to be created in post using computer graphics.

To meet the VFX challenges of this project (over 250 VFX shots) and to ensure that he spent his limited shoot days getting the footage he needed for the final edit of the film, Scheich spent a great deal of time previsualizing the short film using FrameForge Previz Studio.

“FrameForge Previz Studio 3D was essential to this film’s success,” said director Scheich. Unlike traditional storyboards, FrameForge allowed me to use real world camera angles and lenses in planning each shot, which was invaluable in shooting in a confined green-screen environment. I was able to determine not just what shots I wanted, but actually how to shoot them. I quickly discovered that while some angles worked, others needed significant adjustments. By making these changes in preproduction rather than on the set, it saved us a huge amount of time and money.

The production team also used a novel approach of having two sets of printed FrameForge storyboards during the shoot. The first version was for the crew and showed the actual green screen stage so everyone could easily and quickly plan for the next setup. The second set of storyboards showed each shot but with the final backgrounds in place so that the actors had a much better sense of the final look of the scene, which really helped them mentally place themselves in the setting and inspired their acting.

One of the best decisions I ever made on my film Wallenda was using FrameForge Previz Studio 3D at the start of my project, because without it, we might never have finished the film at all! Scheich said.

Scheich explained that he’d originally intended to shoot Wallenda in stereoscopic 3D since he felt that a film about a high wire walker naturally lent itself to stunning images of heights and depths that would be truly enhanced by the third dimension. But after he used FrameForge’s S3D capabilities to plan the shoot using a stereo rig, he realized that doing so would dramatically change the look of the film, and require much more time and money to complete. This led Scheich to make the crucial decision not to shoot in stereoscopic 3D since it just wouldn’t fit into their budget, and he opted to shoot with a mono camera rig instead.

Using FrameForge 3D is like having 20/20 hindsight, Scheich added. I worked in a post production facility for many years and all these problems we had to fix in post, I was able to fix in my preproduction planning, before they ever happened. I can’t imagine doing another film without it.

Wallenda is now being recognized at numerous national film festivals, including the prestigious 36th Cleveland International Film Festival (an Academy-qualifying festival), running March 22 April 1, 2012, in downtown Cleveland, OH.

Many new graduates resort to outdated methods when they begin their job search, says Michael Hampton, director of the Office of Career Development at Linfield College. They check postings, submit an application online, and wait to hear back.

Unfortunately, Hampton said, getting that call is sometimes like winning the lottery. Fortune 500 companies receive 50,000 to 100,000 applications a month, which means that successful job seekers need to use every tool in their arsenal, including social media.

If you dont know where to start a job search, the process can be overwhelming, said Hampton, who has provided job coaching and executive-level training through his company, Procareering. Its important to target your search carefully, and the best way to do that is online.

Social Media Strategies from Linfield College

Sign up for a Twitter account. Companies often tweet job openings, and find a sizeable pool of applicants within several hours. They also tweet valuable inside information that can help job seekers tailor cover letters and resumes. In addition, some career development offices at colleges tweet local job postings.

Individuals can search for jobs on Twitter by typing their chosen profession, whether its graphic design or engineering, into the search box. As a plus, theyll also find industry updates, free webinars and search tips.

Free services such as Tweet my jobs offer job news that is industry specific, and will send individualized information about postings by phone, email or Twitter on a 24/7 basis.

People should read top industry bloggers and study business sections of newspapers in the region where they want to work. MyAlltop enables individuals to create personal, online collections of websites and blogs from thousands of information sources.

Google professional conferences and associations. If people are interested in the green industry, they should search for sustainability conferences to learn about hot topics and key people. Individuals can find contact information for presenters, and follow up to ask advice and find out more about the industry.

Bookmark targeted companies online and regularly check their websites for job postings.

Its important to have a social media presence. Individuals should delete questionable posts on Facebook, but they shouldnt take themselves offline. In the past, companies used social media to screen candidates out. Now they typically use social media to find candidates.

People should establish a Linked In account to connect with acquaintances within companies or industries, and use those sources as references to introduce themselves to key people. Some hiring managers also seek out potential candidates based on Linked In profiles.

Avoid the naysayers, Hampton says. There are jobs to be had and if you approach your search with intention and intelligence, the long-shot odds become meaningless.

But even though social media is critical, in the end, Hampton says, it all comes down to relationships. Employers hire people, rather than pieces of paper. Interested readers will find more career resources at the Office of Career Development at Linfield College, or they can read Hamptons interview with TIME Magazine.

Linfield College, a private, comprehensive, undergraduate institution located in the Pacific Northwest, is nationally recognized for its strong teaching faculty, outstanding academic and professional programs, and distinctive international emphasis. Linfield educates students to become global citizens, with more than half of all graduates participating in study abroad courses.

Cash Depot understands that the new ADA compliance laws are forcing some ATM owners to upgrade existing machines. As a friend and business partner, Cash Depot wants to relieve some of that burden by offering a coupon deal on any ATM purchase with Cash Depot. The coupon offers $ 300 off on any ATM purchased from Cash Depot.

This offer is for existing customers and valid with existing processing, beginning January 1, 2012 or before and expires March 15, 2012. To view and print the coupon, go to http://www.cashdepotplus.com under the catagory, ATM Specials.

The new ATM – ADA requirements pertain to the open floor space in front of an ATM. This is the responsibility of the property manager, or merchant, regardless of the arrangement made with Cash Depot or another ATM provider. It is the merchants responsibility to ensure the proper legal requirements for wheelchair access. These requirements are on the Cash Depot main website: http://www.cashdepotplus.com, plus the sales website: http://www.cashdepotatm.com , and on the federal ADA websites: http://www.ADA.gov, and must be adhered to according to the Department of Justice (D.O.J.). Keep in mind that if the provider gets named in a lawsuit and is sued because compliance is not met, the merchant, most likely, has a responsibility and a contractual agreement to indemnify the provider in the litigation.

The focus of the D.O.J.s new ruling is on the accessibility of the input and output controls at the ATM, including:

Voice guidance All ATMs must be speech enabled to service visually impaired consumers. Because speech output is considered by the ADA to be an auxiliary aid or service, implementation is required unless doing so would create an undue burden or expense.
Height and reach To ensure consumers can easily access input controls, an ATMs reach must equal 48 inches. It is important to note that if the live touch-command areas on the ATM screen are higher than the function keys, the graphic area containing the touch commands must be lowered to the required height for the unit to be compliant.
Numeric keypads The ATMs keypad must be arranged in a twelve-key ascending layout, such as telephone keys, or descending, such as a computer number pad layout.
Function keys Function keys must be designed to contrast visually from their background surfaces.
Display screen For visibility from a point located 40 inches above the center of the floor in front of the ATM, characters on the screen must be in sans serif font, a minimum of 3/16 inch high, and contrast with their background.
Input device Input device controls must be tactually discernible, which means key surfaces must be raised above surrounding surfaces to serve visually impaired consumers.
Braille instructions Braille instructions to initiate the voice guidance feature must also be provided.

Cash Depot is a privately owned, independent full service ATM Provider focusing on merchants and financial institutions. It is one of the few companies in the industry that provides In-House Processing resulting in the fastest possible transactions. Cash Depot sells, leases, rents, services and supports ATMs in the most efficient way maximizing profitability and customer satisfaction.

Coming Soon the Upgraded 15 Watt All Purpose Ventilator!

The All Purpose Ventilator has been a favorite amongst builders, homeowners and renovators as the perfect ventilation solution for attics, crawlspaces, garages and sheds. The All Purpose Ventilator is an alternative to the roof mounted solar attic fans to turbo-charge existing static ventilation. Installed in the interior space behind static vents, most commonly gable vents, the All Purpose Ventilator is the perfect choice for s-tile, concrete and metal roofs where cutting a hole in the roof is not advisable. Coming equipped with 30 feet of wiring to the solar panel (with an additional 60 feet available for purchase), the solar panel can be conveniently mounted on the exterior wall, the roof or the fascia board. With U.S. Sunlights impressive engineering, the ease of installation, knowledgeable support staff, and the flexibility of applications, the only request from customers has been for an All Purpose Ventilator that could also be suitable for ventilating larger spaces.

Previously, the All Purpose Ventilator options from U.S. Sunlight Corp consisted of the 1010APV and the 9910APV, both capable of ventilating up to 1250 sq. ft. With the upcoming model 1015APV All Purpose Ventilator can now ventilate up to 1900 sq. ft. with a single fan. Available immediately for pre-order, the 1015APV All Purpose Ventilator with the upgraded 15 watt panel and included thermal switch will be available June 1, 2012.

As spring is beginning to show itself in many parts of the country, homeowners are diving into the home improvements and renovations that have been put on hold throughout the winter months. Especially as many homeowners are dreading the upcoming heat and corresponding air conditioning bills, improvements to increase the energy efficiency of the home are typically at the top of the list. The All Purpose Ventilator is a favorite for home improvements, since it allows for the most flexible of solar ventilation applications.

In order to reduce energy consumption in the hot summer months help balance your home by alleviating the attic heat buildup and the moisture in your crawlspace. Homeowners with a second floor that is chronically hotter than the first floor are aware of the effect of attic heat buildup in their home. A scientific research study found that 43% of air conditioning design load is predicated on high attic temperatures. By alleviating attic heat buildup, a home becomes more balanced and energy efficient. Not only is it imperative to treat the attic heat buildup, the crawlspace is also in need of active ventilation to reduce the mold-harboring moisture.

The All Purpose Ventilator 1015APV is powered entirely with free solar energy cooling your home for free. Also compatible with U.S. Sunlights Solar Controller, you now have the ability to monitor the humidity and temperature in the ventilated space as well as the fans operating status. For those hot, muggy summer nights, plug the Solar Controller into a power outlet to continue fan operation into the evening, using a minimal draw of electricity.

President of U.S. Sunlight Corp Robert Buckley states, We are excited about the newest addition to our solar ventilation product line. The upgraded 15 watt All Purpose Ventilator that can ventilate up to 1900 square feet of space has been asked for by many of our dealers, installers, contractors and homeowners. Additionally, this all-new All Purpose Ventilator also qualifies for tax credits and local rebates as do the rest of our solar ventilation products. In some cases, a homeowner can install a U.S. Sunlight All Purpose Ventilator for less than $ 50 by taking advantage of the 30% federal tax credit and rebates up to $ 200 per unit. We have designed a user friendly website for consumers and industry professionals to learn how our products can best be used to save money on their energy bills and extend the life of their roofs as well as a comprehensive section on federal tax credits and local rebates.”
