I thrive in a hands on busy environment and believe I am

Creative Technology Experience

I have worked on many projects where I have utilised a variety of creative medias, for example I worked on a video

production explaining the dangers of drugs, for this production to run smoothly preproduction used to make sure the

project ran accordingly and made sure sets and equipment were safe. For the production to be worthwhile I used my

communication techniques to gain recognition and a target audience, I also had to research the market and find

what was working and successful at same time finding my competitors.

I worked on a Production Management project where I was the project leader of a media product, I had to create an

initial idea through to completion. This involved researching an idea and finding a niche, pitching the idea to a varied

audience, managing a production team, and having to take responsibility for the effectiveness of the production pro-

cess. The project I set my self was to initialise my small graphic design company, however the task at hand was not as

small.

Web Design

Project Information

Client: The Counselling and Family Centre Altrincham

Project Name: Youthful Interactive Website

Project Details: The brief set by the CFC was to create a welcoming and friendly website,

however to have all the existing materials the previous site had (which

was a lot).

The new website has now more interactive features which makes the

text easier to read and has more accessibility than the previous. I created

features including hidden menu and scroll features that made the heavy

text easier to read.

Project Information

Client: Interact Intranet

Project Name: Webpages: Management Team, Magazine & Brochure

Project Details: Whilst at Interact Intranet on work experience in 2012, I was set a brief to

update the 3 existing pages on their site. I believe that the management page needed

to be more interactive and informative, the magazine and brochure pages needed to

develop a better image to text ratio as it was too text heavy. I

think I accomplished these aims in my designs.

Project Information

Client: Zion Arts Manchester

Project Name: Interactive Exhibition Website

Project Details: I and a small team of two others were set a brief to create an interac-

tive website for the clients ‘Z-Artist’.

The website now complete features all the residential artists at The Zion Arts Centre.

(www.zionarts.com).

The clients and artists were unspecific how they wanted the website as

they were going through a whole new make-over and branding, so this

allowed us to decide all the designs of the website. The team and I

wanted to incorporate there logo Z with ours ‘Zartist.com’ and I believe

the end product looked to a profession standard.

Project Information

Client: Dave Coulter– Painter Artist

Project Name: Interactive Exhibition Website with blogging

Project Details: We contacted Dave Coulter at Zion arts in Manchester, and offered to

create him a webpage for his exhibition on the 28th October.

The website needed to be youthful for a few years so that Dave could change the infor-

mation (text) on the site.

I believe I created a user friendly site which appeals to a wide audience (customers and

spectators), and I wanted to create an experience for the audience that connects them

to the individual artists.

I the process of near completion of Dave Coulters website we were contacted by Zion

arts saying they and the other artists had a lot of interest in creating a bigger site with all

the current exhibition artists at Zion.

3D Modelling & Animation

Project Information

Client: Trafford College

Project Name: 3D Modelling Musical Instruments

Project Details: The brief was to create 6 3D models, I decide to

generate a collection of models which could all fit together in

a one render. I created a monitor, keyboard, bongo drums,

usb plugs, DJ Decks and a microphone.

Project Information

Client: Trafford College

Project Name: Coat Stand Animation

Project Details: To create a short 3D animation sequence that is

based on a household object using 3Ds Max. The idea needs to show

the use of an IK Chain or a Rig, which would give me the opportunity

to make the object move and act giving it a personality.

(The two renders on the left are test animations)

Video Production

Project Information

Client: YCP Online

Project Name: High… Above The Law?

Project Details: The brief was to set to create a video sequence for use in

an interactive media product working to a near-professional standards

following industry practice, working independently to professional expec-

tations. To complete the production I also needed a team of actors and

videographers whilst I directed and produced the sequence, I also partici-

pated in acting, did all the scripting and pre production.

The video I created is an informative and yet entertaining production, as I

wanted the encapsulate the audience in a video were they felt involved

in the experience, learning the effects of drugs. I made the production into

a two part video, where the first act is of the immediate effects and how

people act on taking legal highs. The second act however is more serious,

presented like a documentary a presented speaks to two previous drug

abusers and how drugs effected their social life, career and general atti-

tude.

(actors did not take drugs, but supplied with scripts based on case studies)

zine cover I created ESCAPE to symbolise the need for magazines
