Pixel Film Studios Releases FCPX Layers Snow for Final Cut Pro X

FCPX Layers Snow is an amazing tool that lets editors create parallax scrolling effects using composite footage. Stack up to 3 layers of snow footage in a three-dimensional environment, then track the movement of the camera to create the illusion that they were part of the original shot. Add realistic composites to footage using FCPX Layers.

FCPX Layers Snow contains up to 3 layers of composite snow footage that can be turned off individually. Adjust the distance between layers using intuitive depth sliders. Users can offset the position of the footage with sliders as well.

FCPX Layers works even better when using handheld footage containing a trackable subject. The built-in motion tracking technology lets users track the position of the particles with the movement of the camera. Adjust the strength of the movement using the Follow Track controls .

Over 15,000 frames of snowy video footage are included in this package and are spread throughout 38 different snowy composites. Simply choose the start frame of the footage using the Frame Start slider for each layer. Consult the Frame Start Guide to find out the starting frame for each composite.

Tweak the look of snowfall by adjusting style controls such as colors, blend modes, contrast and brightness. Each layer contains its own set of controls for these parameters so that users have total control over the style of each snow composite.

Keywest Technology Expands SignWave IoT Displays With Useful Features

Keywest Technology announced today that it will showcase its latest SignWave IoT display solutions and software improvements at InfoComm 2018, which is an annual trade show for all things audio-visual in North America. The mega-expo will be held in Las Vegas through June 6-8.

If Keywest Technology's announcements could be summarized in one word, "sophistication," would be the word that comes to mind, said Koytt Nichols, Keywest Technology's president and chief technology officer. "Sophistication is in the details. What separates our latest SignWave displays from other all-in-one solutions is the level of choice."

Nichols continued, "It's not a solution to have the most technically-advanced displays on the market, they also must be powered with the most advanced software if it's going to be a great solution that fits a variety of clients' needs. By using Breeze cloud widgets, SignWave displays take advantage of sophisticated IoT features without using 3rd party add-ons that often add more complexity and expense than necessary."

Keywest Technology launched the original SignWave display in 2013, which primarily targeted the nascent conference room sign market. Today, with multiple package variations, SignWave is a solution for many multi-function roles that extend beyond conference room signage. For example, the all-in-one displays have grown to become more versatile by offering custom cloud widgets that perform data automation, multiple display sizes, mounting options, and advanced features, making possible digital reader boards, digital posters, mini kiosks, digital menus, an d digital POS sales assistants.

The newest additions to the SignWave digital signage system come with many standard IoT features with options for customization. For example, the Breeze cloud widgets can aggregate social media feeds, weather, news, scheduling info, and EMS event data, then display it conveniently in real-time at convenient locations. There's even a widget to source your corporate calendar from Google or MS Outlook. Most interestingly, SignWave can be custom programmed using Breeze widgets to perform almost any data interaction or information retrieval imaginable, including push/pull interaction from smartphones using Bluetooth, NFC, or RFID, depending on the model chosen.

Keywest Technology will showcase its newest SignWave models at InfoComm 2018. Some of the features that will be on display include:

Finally, not content to put all of its 'sophistication eggs' in one basket, Keywest Technology doubled-down on maximizing the security of its most popular cloud software, Breeze Digital Signage, which powers SignWave displays, plus thousands of other 3rd-party display screens throughout North America.

According to Ni chols, "...after a flood of high-profile hacks on the Internet, which highlight the seriousness of this issue, security has become a top concern that can only be mitigated with the diligent application of security technology and built-in safeguards."

Keywest Technology reviewed and implemented security upgrades to Breeze 2.0 in the first quarter of 2018 that included a comprehensive network intrusion detection system (NIDS), which proactively monitors intrusions, sends alerts, and provides real-time intervention based on known traffic patterns, signatures, and many other variables.

Breeze software engineers also upgraded the UI and UX with improvements based on customer feedback, and further enhanced customer management features, such as sophisticated role-based access control (RBAC) with extensive user permissions, single sign-on (SSO), configurable login mapping and auditing, and secure password formulations. All of this to help verify each login, limit access, maximize admin control, and provide traceable accountability. All of these additions were made on top of Breeze's leading cloud architecture, ensuring the best digital signage experience possible.

Interested parties and system integrators can contact Keywest Technology for a demonstration at InfoComm 2018 in Las Vegas, NV. End users are invited to attend the Expo at no charge when using Keywest's VIP code KEY264 while registering. Keywest Technology sells and distributes SignWave and Breeze Digital Signage through their network of professional AV and IT resellers.

A Kid Cell Phone Alternative – Republic Wireless Launches Screen Free Relay with Focus on Simplicity, Safety, and Data Privacy

Republic Wireless today launched Relay, a nationwide kid cell phone alternative aimed at children ages six - eleven for whom parents don't want to give a smartphone yet, but need an easy and affordable way to stay in touch. As simple to use as a walkie talkie with a one button push-to-talk feature, Relay offers unlimited range and is intended to give parents peace of mind, while offering fun voice features for children.

Relay is a 2" x 2" screenless smart device powered by both WiFi and 4G LTE so it works in the back yard, down the street, and even across the country – everywhere a cell phone works. Designed with kids in mind, Relay is durable, water resistant and boasts all-day battery life. The free Relay app for both iOS and Android smartphones allows parents to use their existing phones and tablets to communicate with their child's Relay.

Republic Wireless's commitment to ensuring the privacy and digital safety of Relay users was a top priority during the product's development. Relay leverages the industry-leading privacy guidance and expertise of Common Sense, the nation's leading nonprofit organization dedicated to helping kids thrive in a world of media and technology. As a result, Relay provides a safe online experience for families, including not storing or selling any customer data. In addition to these measures to ensure families' privacy and safety, Republic Wireless will also donate a portion of its proceeds from Relay to support the education and digital citizenship efforts of Common Sense.

"The mission of Relay is deeply personal for our team," said Republic Wireless co-founder and CEO Chris Chuang. "As the father of four young children, like many parents, I struggle with balancing the benefits of technology in my kids' lives with the endangering screen addiction and other challenges that come along with it. So, we decided to build the product that we as parents wished we had in our own families. Something categorically different that is built "kid-up" vs. "adult-down" with bold design choices such as preventing screen addiction - by eliminating the screen altogether."

"Most of all though - Relay is about bringing fun, peace of mind, and perhaps a bit of nostalgia back into our children's lives. Despite all the technology innovation we see every day, when it comes to our children, many parents have valid concerns that aren't being adequately addressed by the industry. Nobody is getting all the parts right. Given our unique software, hardware and extensive network know how, we are in a rare position to introduce a much needed fix to this underserved and growing problem in our world," Chuang adds.

"Relay works much like a walkie talkie except with far greater range. The device includes 'channels' which with one touch, will allow access to an evolving set of features including music and games. We plan to introduce new channels in the coming months that bring new features and experiences to Relay," Chuang said.

Starting today, Relay is on sale at http://www.RelayGo.Com. Prices range from $99 for one device to $199 for three Relays and service is $6.99 per month, per Relay.

About Republic Wireless

Headquartered in Raleigh, North Carolina, Republic Wireless is a team of innovators who live to provide families with remarkably simple, affordable, and safe ways to stay in touch. Most well-known for pioneering WiFi calling for smartphones and saving customers over $500 million off their cell phone bills, Republic recently announced Relay, a nationwide cell phone alternative that kids love and parents can trust.

HaneyBiz Marketing Delivers Over 70k Branded Video Views With Instagram Influencer Marketing Campaign

HaneyBiz Marketing today announces the launch of the MagNaK™ Sports Drink influencer marketing campaign, headlined by globally-ranked UFC® fighter, Darren Elkins and renowned Instagram fitness coach and physical therapist, Dr. Jen Esquer.

MagNaK™ was developed by Gray Mountain Sports Drinks CEO, Dr. Sourabh Kharait. Dr. Kharait purports that MagNaK™ is a low-calorie fitness re-hydration drink that addresses the magnesium deficits which can occur during periods of intense fitness activity and which several recent scientific studies have shown have a high correlation with incidence of muscle cramping.

In order to highlight the performance supporting benefits of MagNaK™, Gray Mountain approached HaneyBiz Marketing about developing an influencer-driven marketing campaign for the drink.

Medo Eldin, Managing Director at HaneyBiz Marketing stated, "With MagNaK™, we immediately saw the potential of influencer marketing due to the physical needs of high-performance athletic influencers on Instagram. We felt that if these athletes experienced the physical benefits purported by Gray Mountain, they would become enthusiastic about the drink and that would come through as au thenticity in their videos and posts."

For the campaign, HaneyBiz Marketing worked with four influencers with varying fitness profiles. UFC® fighter, Darren Elkins appeared a video in which his internal thoughts played as a voice-over while video footage showed him training. The video can be viewed here: https://www.instagram.com/p/Bh1mtzaBYNf.

Dr. Jen Esquer, a physical therapist with over 400,000 Instagram followers, produced a video in which she highlighted work-out techniques along with an overview of the benefits of maintaining adequate levels of magnesium during fitness activity and the presence of such levels in MagNaK™. The video can be viewed here: https://www.instagram.com/p/Bh8CNZDBrWx.

Medo Eldi n further stated, "The key to successfully executing influencer marketing is to always be testing which influencers generate the best brand affinity and then double down on those influencers on an ongoing basis. With MagNaK™ we see additional future opportunities for enhancing the brand through strategic influencer partnerships."

Influencer marketing has become a billion-dollar industry and has shown no sign of slowing down. The dynamic has increased in recent years as social media personalities have increasingly been able to deliver higher ROI as compared to traditional media such as TV, radio, or print. According to Gary Vaynerchuk, CEO of VaynerMedia, "Influencer marketing is one of the cheapest attention arbitrages right now, and I truly believe that it's one of the most effective ways of advertising a brand right now as well, along with Facebook ads." Citation here.

"We could not be happier with the results", stated Gray Mountain CEO, Dr. Kharait. "With over 70,000 views of our branded video posts, as well as great engagement with customers through comments and likes, HaneyBiz Marketing found the perfect influencers to help promote the health benefits of MagNaK™. We look forward to expanding our influencer marketing efforts with HaneyBiz Marketing in the years to come."

Dr. Kharait shared additional thoughts about working with HaneyBiz Marketing on the MagNaK™ influencer campaign here: https://youtu.be/sHBYZR4HidM

HaneyBiz Marketing is an influencer marketing agency based in Rocklin, CA. The company focuses on driving digital traffic and sales for brands through the use of engaging influencer content on Facebook, Instagram, YouTube, LinkedIn, Snapchat, and Twitter. HaneyBiz Marketing is a division of Haney Business Ventures, Inc., which was founded by Mark Haney, a successful serial entrepreneur with several multi-million dollar exits.
