September 2010 saw the launch of “She Died Of Beauty”, a simple yet concise collection of 5 beautiful typographic t-shirts and bags produced by Stylist Kate Halfpenny and Super Model Erin O’Connor. Working with Designer James-Lee Duffy I developed the website using a bespoke WordPress back-end.

Kate Halfpenny is a Celebrity Fashion Stylist and Bridal Wear Designer famed for her bespoke creations. Back in 2008, Kate approached me to design and build the 1st version of Halfpenny London. 2 years on, Kate’s site needed a lick of paint. To achieve this I enhanced the design and installed a full content management system. The website now also features a bespoke PayPal shop, so kate can sell her jewellery.

Elegant & Wild showcases Victoria Dawe, an Event and Wedding Photographer. As Victoria had a wide variety of portrait and landscape images, I designed and then implemented a carousel gallery to accomodate the two. The website also features a dynamic client area which links up to Victoria’s Apple MobileMe profile.

For this project, StiffRowlands (a great little creative agency) provided me with some rather tasty PSD (Photoshop) files. From here I sliced, diced and produced their website. This is a great example for those of you who just require my development services.

I was recently commissioned by Pepper Corp (a fantastic agency up the road from my office in central London) to produce a number of posters and web banners for Disneyland Paris. During my 4 days at the agency, I composited a series of designs featuring popular Disney characters. The ads were translated into several languages and used to promote a new offer for the popular holiday resort.

Raw Television produce cutting edge documentaries for broadcasters such as the BBC, Channel 4, Five, CBS, A&E, Discovery and National Geographic. I reviewed the companies brand and produced them a very organic looking design. As the fast paced production company were keen to keep their content upto date, I produced a bespoke WordPress Content Management System.

In 2008, the largest independent mastering house in Europe (The Metropolis Group) commissioned me to produce the DVD Motion Graphics for “Basil Brush Extravaganza”. Originally broadcast in 2003, the graphics were produced using Adobe Photoshop CS3. Assets provided by Metropolis were manipulated in Adobe Illustrator CS3. Finally, everything was composed and imported into Adobe After Effects CS3. From here, The Metropolis Group’s Digital Media Team rendered the composition and coded the data required to produce a DVD.
