Big Stage names former Activision exec as CEO

Former head of Activision worldwide studios Chuck Huebner has joined Big Stage as its president and CEO.

"As a revolutionary global media company, Big Stage will redefine how consumers experience entertainment," Huebner said.

"I have never seen a company or a technology that I believe has the potential that Big Stage does. It is a testament to the founders and tech team that they had the vision and the wherewithal to bring the company to this point and I look forward to leading us further along the path to success."

Along with his experience at Activision, Huebner was also CEO of Wizards of the Coast and held management positions with the Coca-Cola Company and Procter & Gamble.

Big Stage's technology allows users to create lifelike 3D avatars of themselves and integrate them into movies, TV shows, videogames, virtual worlds, still images, and other content. It plans to launch its product to consumers in Q2 2008.
