BTEC Games]]> The BTEC Games Development website was part of a professional team project conducted with the HND Interactive Media course. During this time, I undertook the role of project manager.

I also took an active role in the design of this site, from the branding up to the web screen design itself. I tried to reflect the nature of the games industry, taking inspiration from a number of current gaming trends.

BTEC ND Photography]]> As with the BTEC Games website, this project was involved in the professional team brief as a college assignment. Again, I was project manager for this site, but was less heavily involved with the design as I was with the BTEC Games site.

The approach was to keep the website as simple as possible, placing the focus on the photography exhibited through the portfolio.

M5 Coca Cola Bottle]]> The Coca-Cola M5 website was designed to showcase the design of a Coca Cola bottle created using the ‘reverse design process’ – design without knowing what it was for.

It involved creating my own PHP backend system to allow him to update the portfolio.

DC Design]]> Dan Cooper is a former colleague who needed a website putting together to showcase his work. As part of this, he needed a PHP backend to upload, thumbnail and display relevant images.

As Dan is himself a designer, the process of ideas generation was different to my usual approach – meaning a collaborative design effort focused around Dan’s needs and wants.

Productions Website http://www.tp-smith.co.uk/webwork/moreproductions/ http://www.tp-smith.co.uk/webwork/moreproductions/#comments Wed, 20 May 2009 14:06:39 +0000 admin http://www.tp-smith.co.uk/?p=340 The final assignment of the HND Interactive Media course offered the option of a professional project. I leapt at the opportunity.

More Productions Website]]> More Productions are a creative company who ‘deliver high quality creative learning programmes as well as produce performances and interactive entertainment events’. They needed a website in order to promote their work and encourage uptake of their services.

I also built a HTML email template to give a professional edge to the communications sent out by the company, as well as completing a number of marketing materials.
