Digital - Animation / I was asked by PricewaterhouseCoopers (PwC) to design and build an internal animated email campaign that would inform their employees of a new scheme whereby everyone that came up with a winning e-business idea would be rewarded with £10,000! I based the animation on the game everyone was playing at the time… Snake. The campaign ran for over a year as it was so successful.

Digital - Interactive e-mailer / I was asked by Sony Computer Entertainment Europe (SCEE) to design and build an online digital mailer for the launch of their event space in East London called 3Rooms. This was to go with a print version I also designed. The digital mailer asked the user to scratch away their screen with their mouse to reveal an illustration from the event. You would then enter your details on screen.

Electronic mailer - Electronic mailer / I was asked by Hewlett Packard to design and build an electronic mailer that would sit in the body of an email and be emailed out to all their delegates for an upcoming event. As the event was to be held in several destinations across the world, I came up with the idea of using a passport. This animated through the pages and finished on whichever page the destination was.

EC Travel CMS website - CMS Website / I was asked by EC Travel to re-design their dated flash website for a fully editable CMS website with a transactional client area that allowed users to book and securely pay for excursions at events. I designed a simple user interface with fresh colours and clear layout to bring it up-to-date.

Digital - While at Smosarski I re-branded their main identity, stationery and website. Dropping the word 'design' from their name I striped back the design to keep it clean and simple. On the website the main focus was the work with the navigation and design being kept simple.

Nestle - Ecard - Interactive Animation / I was asked by Nestlé to illustrate, design and build an internal Christmas e-card for all their employees. It had to incorporate all the main characters from their brands in a fun and interactive way. I produced an energetic, exploding illustration that gave a set time for each brand to shine, while still highlighting their festive message. This was very successful which has led to me working with Nestlé on their festive message for the last three years.

Website (Flash)

CMS database Website - I was asked by IPSA to redesign and build their website. They wanted a website that they could not only update themselves, but that could also allow for their members to login and search councils and agents across their area. built a fully editable rich text content management system that would not only allow IPSA to add and delete pages, copy, images and links. But also allow their members to edit their profile pages, add/delete information and search the entire database online.

CMS Website - I was asked by Suparna to re-design their website, wrapping the new design around a flexible Content Management System that would allow them to edit copy, upload images, documents and stock data.
