Multimedia stuff (2005)
This is my multimedia stuff, I don’t like to use the word portfolio because it reminds me of Peter Mandelson and that’s just not on.
This area is currently being redesigned from the previous format that uses filthy framesets, the content won’t be complete until mid 2006.
Essentially what you can see here is what I’ve been up to for the past five years, both at college and in the work place.
Some of the examples are very basic, created within weeks of opening a graphics package for the first time and with little or no thought for content or layout. Others have had more emphasis placed on research than final execution, and as such the ideas are more prominent than the finished product.
For the past two and a half years I’ve been working as part of an in house web development team on multimedia products for children. Although our product uses web technology it is not published online so examples are unavailable.
Technology
With respect to how projects have been constructed there is a variation in the standard of coding between 2000 and now. Tatty HTML, framesets and tables, all have which can be found here somewhere, have given way to CSS, XHTML and PHP driven applications. Web standards, functionality and the use of lightweight code have all been part of a learning process. Adapting these ideals and implementing them on these pages, and at work, will hopefully help make the web a better place to be.
