a creative whiteboard since 1999
Contacted to make a simple clean flash for the AdVantage advertising agency in bermuda. i was hoping they’d invite me to stay for a few months, but they haven’t yet! this site comprises of an animated illustrated navigation, a splash of content and most importantly a php content management system.
katie and michelle super stylists wanted a super stylish site.
they got one.
The brief was to make something nuts. something that didn’t make any sense, while also making sense. A site that the client could play with, show to his kids, confuse the competition… BUT also be a functional business tool. no problemo, behold asfeatures.co.uk posibly the most insane thing i’ve ever created.
This is the hallway. the only page with navigation. The site is based around the concept of a house. the viewer moves from room to room, stumbling across content.

Star Ticket
A kids TV equivalent of pop idol, from national auditions to final band this Flash site had to offer live voting and statistics that ran simultaneously with the TV show. The stats also pulled in information of the phone, text, and digital TV votes.
As the show grew I had to design and develop content for competitions, design a logo was the most complicated giving the kids a mini art package to play with.
Due to a huge amount of red tape, it takes 5 days to make a live change on the server, this meant the 10 week show had to run to the second from the beginning. I did this using server clocks and a lot of planning.

Kids Awards
An industry awards ceremony voted for by the kids. For this project i developed flash content, displayed the information and recorded votes for over 100 acts. My code then had to be integrated with Disney’s data capture procedure. The final show was in front of a live audience of 10,000 and an international TV audience of Millions.

Working with Reuters and JCDecaux, I designed and produced a piece of software that downloads an XML file from the Reuters news server, processes it, downloads the pictures from a different server and lays it all out neatly on sceen at 15 seconds intervals. This was then intergrated with JCDecaux software and their advertising to produce this final application.
Eurostar terminal, Waterloo, London. Here this 5 meter screens displays news to thousands of international and national train passengers every day.
Reuters news display at Heathrow. 9.4 million people pass this screen each year.
A similar application is now used on news screens in offices throughout London. Other features include share price update, that requires 36 digit alpha numeric code, changed every 12 hours on a secure server.
