Interactive Software Executive Billy Joe Cain Tapped to Head Business Development at Meta 3D Studios
AUSTIN, TX.; August 18th, 2014: Application and game developer Meta 3D Studios, founded in 2005, has tapped interactive veteran Billy Joe Cain as their Business Development Director.
“We are very excited to have Billy come on board because he brings a wealth of interactive experience to the team, from a design perspective all the way to an operations standpoint. Building a strategic plan with Billy was almost like finishing each other’s sentences,” says Randy Polk, President of Meta 3D Studios.
Cain worked for legendary game studios Origin Systems and Electronic Arts before he struck out on his own, co-founding three game development studios over a period of 15 years. “I’ve been very fortunate to have worked with some amazingly talented people throughout the years and I’m always trying to get the ‘band’ back together,” said Cain.
Meta 3D Studios’ leadership experience more than doubled with Cain’s hire. “Between Billy and me, you’re talking about 36 years of some very hard-won experience,” claims Polk. Managing highly-technical, creative, interactive product development is definitely a challenge. “Some people refer to the management challenge as herding cats. I think it’s more like herding cats in a tornado,” jokes Cain.
Cain is eager to expand Meta 3D Studios capabilities’ and client list. He says “Meta 3D Studios has created some cool apps and games and I am very eager to reach out to new clients. Once companies learn what we have up our sleeves, it’s on like Donkey Kong.”
Meta 3D Studios is currently growing their Augmented Reality and Virtual Reality offerings to service enterprises including marketing and advertising agencies.
Augmented Reality (AR) is a technology that superimposes a computer-generated image on a user’s view of the real world, thus providing a composite view. “Imagine a jet pilot’s visor with speed, altitude, etc. being displayed in front of their eyes. AR can take that experience and multiply it by infinity, even generating a world visually on top of the real world. There are, essentially, no limits to what can be created,” explains Cain. “It’s really exciting because it can be used in so many other industries including advertising, health and medicine as well as the military.”
In 2013, Meta 3D Studios assisted with development of an AR application for the launch of a Syfy channel program in Canada and North American markets that lets users make mini-movies with Hollywood-style effects by adding virtual actors directly into movies you’ve created using nothing but your iPhone or iPad camera.
