Cadalog to Sell Bunkspeed HyperShot in Japan
LOS
ANGELES, CA, Feb 19, 2008 - Bunkspeed, Inc. announced today the selection of
Cadalog as a major reseller and distributor of HyperShot in Japan.
HyperShot is Bunkspeed’s groundbreaking application that finally takes
the complexity and high cost out of 3D rendering. In as little as fifteen
minutes, even first time users can load a 3D model into HyperShot, add
materials, and then apply realistic lighting via High Dynamic Range Images (HDRI).
The result is an “interactive photograph” that designers can easily
manipulate in any direction.
Cadalog’s successful track record of distributing CAD products in Japan
makes the company a natural pick to develop strong sales channels for
HyperShot in this important market. As the master distributor for McNeel’s
Rhinoceros 3D modeling software and Google’s SketchUp 3D modeling program,
Cadalog has built a solid network of 25 resellers throughout Asia.
The company plans on utilizing this strategic sales channel to distribute
HyperShot in Japan, while directly marketing to their database of 25,000 CAD
users through forums, workshops, and mailings.
“I strongly believe HyperShot answers a particular need for industrial
designers and mechanical engineers in Japan who seek a fast, affordable ray
tracing program,” David Wayne, Cadalog CEO, states. “The low price point and
ease of use makes HyperShot the first truly accessible rendering program to
the individual user.”
He continues, “It’s a great match with our distribution portfolio of
quality CAD products. In fact, we plan on bundling HyperShot with some of
our other low-cost industrial design offerings.”
Cadalog has cultivated many valuable relationships in the Asian consumer
electronics and mechanical design markets, where heavy use of CAD products
like SolidWorks, Pro/ENGINEER and Rhino opens up many opportunities for
HyperShot. A 3D model created in any of these applications can be directly
rendered into photographic imagery by HyperShot, literally in just minutes.
“Japan is a vital market for Bunkspeed, so it was important we brought on
a distributor who was clearly accomplished at building fruitful sales
channels there,” says Philip Lunn, Bunkspeed CEO. “We couldn’t be more
confident in our decision to choose Cadalog. It’s a pleasure to welcome them
into the Bunkspeed family.”
Cadalog has launched an exclusive HyperShot website for the Japan market.
