• Motion Graphic Template Design Development

  • May 2017 - Oct 2017

  Working onsite for DMC in Amsterdam for 5 months creating channel ident and schedule dynamic graphics (IPPs, Menus, etc) for a number of TV channels such as History, AMC, FOX, Shorts, Film1 and Sundance whilst they migrated their entire operation location-wise and software-wise. The migration was on time and their clients were happy with the switch over to the new dynamic graphics templates I created for the Pebble Beach software which DMC had adopted. I have on going work with DMC working remotely. A tool I developed whilst on location made development time significantly quicker and has meant that I can now work remotely and do most of the testing without the playout system being required. Final testing is done on the playout system for full validation before going live.
