Responsible for overseeing the development of numerous campaigns including a AS3 Flash micro site for the launch of the G1 Phone from Google. This project included an outsourced Google Map game (via their API) with full database driven scoring and viral functionality. Throughout this project I had to liaise regularly with Google, their business and technical contacts and the game’s developers’ who were based in New York and LA. I also was responsible for commissioning the same company (SMERC) to build a G1 Mapping Game / Engine that utilised the new Open Source mobile Android operating system. The game could be played on the phone or downloaded as a Open Source SDK from T-Mobile to assist developers to develop new, map-based games. In addition to this, I also managed a series of multi-lingual rich-media banner campaigns including one for the launch of the new G1 Phone from Google and assisted in the procurement of suitable external companies to work on a new dance-based avatar’ campaign.

Researched and specked out a touch screen game campaign for Cadburys Cream Eggs to be used over the Christmas period in London-based bus shelters. The campaign was utilising outdoor media owners JC Decaux’s screens and technologies and, thus, I had to liaise with their technologists too.

Assisted the above the line creative’s extend their award winning campaign against cruelty to children onto the web as an interactive game. Liaised with both the animation production company and a Kiev-based development partner to get the project started and built a working flash demonstration illustrating the way the code should be implemented.

I was responsible for resolving the numerous issues they were facing whilst using Flash for the first time in as a UI for a game. The majority of the issues were related to localisation, i.e. dynamically rendering 15 different languages, including Japanese, on a variety of games platforms – all within a very tight graphical framework.

In addition to designing sites for both DoDec and its sister company DoSo, I also was responsible for developing and designing for clients including Tefal, Rowenta, Bonus Print, Krups, ForeMost Villas, Director UK, Credit UK and Youth2Youth.
