• Web Developer & Marketing Creative

  • Jun 2012 - Dec 2014

  Joined a creative agency as their main web developer for client landing websites and landing pages. Developed my skills across a number of pipelines whilst working for brands including: RollsRoyce, ANA, Dock 10, SeeWoo and more. There I created performance-orientated landing pages using JS technologies - built for conversion. I designed & built websites using Wordpress CMS when necessary and developed a PR portal for the agency for clients only. Finally we developed a large asset management portal for ANA - one of the largest airline in the world - to coordinate all marketing assets across all of their EMEA offices and agencies. For this I implemented a heavily modified version of Wordpress that could efficiently keep track of tens of thousands of assets and associated media (this back in the day when custom post types were a new concept to the platform). On the creative side I created a number of 3D animations & visualisations for the clients above including a new engine reveal animation for Rolls-Royce. Finally I was responsible for creating interactive 3D stand visualisations for ANA as preparation for numerous trade shows they would attend throughout the year - all created using Unity 3D and compiled for web browser use.

• Marketing Manager

  • Nov 2010 - Apr 2012

  Helped grow Red Helix, a health and safety start-up targeting the oil & gas market. The role started with me setting up the marketing department for which I was responsible for most of the creative output. This included all branding and creative for brand touch points. Developed and maintained the company web-sites (main brand and two sub-brands) which were built in Wordpress using PHP, HTML, CSS & JS. Later the company rebranded to essetnialsafetyproducts.co.uk and temporarily became an online e-commerce platform. During that time I was responsible for the e-commerce web site, still built in Wordpress using WooCommerce. On the creative site we created a number of 3D animations featuring our star character Red Helix man to showcase our products and services. Briefly worked on a sim-cave prototype (rear-projection immersive visualisation space) to simulate hazardous situations in which we would showcase our products and main software system. Created the UI for the safety software system we were developing with a partner company - an RFID based emergency medical information tag.



MOOFU Education

• Creative Marketer

  • Jun 2010 - Nov 2010

  Worked in the marketing department of Moofu - an interactive 3D Visualisation start-up - primarily in a creative role. Main responsibilities included creating and managing digital brand touch-points and helping the development of the company's flagship 3D Visualisation product - a Unity 3D based real-time visualisation tool for architecture companies and property developers. I created and managed two main web sites, one for the company and another for the flagship product, using custom build Wordpress themes. On the product I collaborated with other 3D Animators in creating 3D Models and animations for interiors, cleaned up exported CAD data so that it will work within Unity3D, built large-scale environments as showcases for our tools. At the time our most notable clients included Capita for new development visualisations and RM Education for their interactive 3D product showroom directly tied to their ecommerce platform.
