Work

I build websites using web standards to produce attractive, usable and accessible sites that work for as wide an audience as possible.

I specialise in WordPress content management systems, allowing site owners to easily update content without outside assistance.

WordPress is used by millions of individuals and organisations around the world, including major corporations and publishers.

Some of the sites I’ve built

I’ve just launched a new site for Christine Bond, connected with the BECTU 2010 President and NEC elections.

The site has been built using WordPress making it easy to extend and update the site in response to developments during the election campaign.

I was the web designer and developer for Twestival – an international charity event involving Twitter users – from February to July 2009.

I built the site for the first Twestival Global held on 12 February 2009, raising money and awareness for charity: water.

I used WordPress MU to provide individual sites for more than 200 participating cities across the world – pictured is the site design from February 2009.

This infrastructure remained in place as the basis of Twestival Local 2009, held in the second half of 2009, and further developed by Applied Solutions Group.

The current third version of the site for Twestival Global 2010 continues the use of WordPress MU, and is being developed by Citron Studio and Studio Good.

I carried out the design and development from 1997 to early 2009 of bectu.org.uk.

This involved five major interface re-designs, progressing from the early days of table-based layout to a site built using web standards – pictured is the site design from January 2009.

In 2007 I introduced a customised WordPress installation for the site, which provided content management for news stories.

I’ve also built a number of associated BECTU sites, including bectubbc.org.uk, ESPG and Animation & New Media Branch.

Additionally I’ve contributed articles and photography for these sites.

Under development

Preparing to open for business in April 2010, Orange Coconut is a new television post production company. Web development is currently being carried out.
