Incredible 3D Appoints Jean McCormick
Emmy Award-Winning Digital Executive Becomes President and CEO
WILMINGTON, DE--(Marketwire - January 5, 2010) - Universal Capital Management, Inc.
(OTCBB: UCMT), a Wilmington, Delaware business development company that
provides management and planning resources to emerging growth companies, is
pleased to announce that Universal portfolio company, Incredible 3D, has
appointed Jean McCormick as President and CEO.
Incredible 3D is a
digital media company that uses proprietary technology to create and
distribute dynamic 3D content, which is displayed on a screen that can be
viewed without special eyewear. Currently in its developmental stage,
Incredible 3D will ultimately take advantage of the explosive demand for 3D
by developing exceptional 3D content; a 3D content library; a distribution
platform for 3D content; creating a licensing business for 3D content
production; branding a rendering and editing standard for eyewear-free 3D
content; developing total solution packages for commercial and home use;
and co-developing a low-cost hardware solution to quickly and significantly
increase the number of 3D without eyewear screens. The 3D content appears
to magically float in front of the screen.
Jean McCormick has worked in the digital media space since 1998, honing her
skills in content, social networking, business development, sales, and
marketing functions while establishing an impressive reputation. To her
credit, she built a content group at SightPath, which was one of the first
companies to deliver TV-quality video to the desktop. In 2000, SightPath
was sold for $800 million to Cisco. She moved on to serve as VP of Content
for myteam.com, a youth sports startup involved in social networking and
user generated content in the earliest stages. She then worked as Head of
Content for LRN, where she oversaw the production of numerous online videos
for the corporate market.
Jean began her career at ABC News, where she ultimately became the "Chief
Researcher" for "Nightline." At ABC's ESPN division she became the first
female Studio Producer and Coordinating Producer, winning seven sports Emmy
awards for "Sunday SportsDay" and "Outside the Lines." She then helped
launch CNN/SI as Executive Producer for Turner.
Jean holds a B.A. degree from Wellesley and an MBA degree from Harvard.
"We are thrilled Jean accepted the position as President and CEO," says
Robert Oberosler, President and COO of Universal Capital Management. "Her
caliber of expertise is what this company needs to bring it to the next
level and subsequently add value to the investment for our shareholders."
