Over the past 5 years Comic Relief has been one of my favourite contracts to return to. My main role on each campaign is the designer on the Giving Page platform. This is a large agile project and the work needed is extensive. There is a complex registration journey and payment section, then everyone gets a Giving Page. On there you can get sponsored, get tips, write emails, post to social networks and update your profile. In addition to this work I have worked on other pages on the main sites such as Fundraising, creating icons, social media posts and emails.
Main skills used: UI - UX - Wireframing - Agile - Responsive - Ideas
While on a 4 month contract at Gollin Harris I got to work on the Magnum social account. Each month I had a number of posts to create for Magnum, usually a post a day. I was given a lot of creative freedom on these posts and have selected a few of my favourites to show. I used a variety of skills from drawing and painting to photography and photoshop.

During my 2 week contract at We Are Social I worked as sole designer on the social Cadbury advent calendar. Using limited assets I created the themed advent calendar and posts which had to display on a responsive Facebook app. The idea was each day an item would be wrapped up posted up on Twitter and Facebook and you had to guess what it was with using a #.

Whilst working at the agency Clock I got to work on the pitch for Asos's intranet design. They wanted something the employees would really enjoy using and pull in data like the weather and what was being served that day in the canteen. We did not win the pitch but I liked this piece of work so thought I'd share.

While working at the small agency Clock I was lead designer on the Stylist website re-design. The layout was driven by elements found in the printed magazine and from that I created the homepage, article and video pages. This is a project from 2010 but I'm still proud of the piece of work.
Over the past 8 years I've been lucky in the projects I've been able to work on. At Clock I worked on Eddie Izzards personal website - which was full of illustration, colour and crazy ideas. Sole designer on Ross Nobel, Justin Lee Collins and Just for Laughs websites. I worked on Boomerang TV and won a pitch for a large amount of work with my illustrative designs. In my first job at small agency Real451 my Mighty Boosh idea won a pitch with the BBC for an interactive Mighty Boosh world - which was great fun to work on. I've shown a handful of the work here.
