Alien Invasion – Bowland Maths

Type: Whiteboard application (flash and related assets)

Alien Invasion is a full-scale alien attack that happens when a teacher’s class is visiting Manford City. As the invasion goes on, there are live TV news bulletins, radio broadcasts and telephone messages that tell teachers and students what is happening. To help resist the invasion, students need to find a way out of a series of problems by solving them as the story goes on. Students need to discuss the problems and think about them and also think up ideas for solving them! This is a multimedia teaching aid which will run on any school interactive whiteboard system. There are traditional downloadable and printable worksheets and teacher resource sheets for use inside the classroom.

My role: Designer of downloadable resources for teachers and pupils.

Butterfly Garden – HMC Interactive

Type: Installation

HMC Interactive created the Butterfly Garden as a portable attraction, ideal for parties, promotional events or any public space. The memorable interactive illusion creates digital butterflies that fly around a beautiful centrepiece of white lillies. Born in the palm of your hand, the interactive creatures flutter from flower to flower, until they eventually fly off into the ether.

My role: Designer. My role in this project was to hardwire up the sensors in the flowers and assemble the interactive. I was on hand at Submerge in Bristol and at the Wedding Fair in Devon as technical support.

247 – After Dark Media

Type: Identity

247 Magazine was launched in April 2000, targeting 18-30 yr olds living and working in Devon and Cornwall and has rapidly grown to become the most popular free music and lifestyle magazine of it’s type in the region.

Whilst working at After Dark Media, the lead designer and I undertook a rebrand of the magazine in order to create a memorable and versatile brand. The 247 “stamp” is now a common sight across the South West’s event marketing material. The block shape allows the magazine cover designer to adapt the logo each month to reflect the theme of the cover and content.

My role: Designer.

Topshop, Vans and Soul Life – 247 Magazine

Type: Photographic

247 Magazine was launched in April 2000, targeting 18-30 yr olds living and working in Devon and Cornwall and has rapidly grown to become the most popular free music and lifestyle magazine of it’s type in the region.

The “labels” section of the magazine is a platform for photographic and modelling talent in the South West to advertise some big brands. I was invited to be the photographer for three summer shoots; one for Topshop, one for Soul life and one for Vans. I have a background in photography, and was keen to rise to the challenge.
