Over the course of the past two and a half years Andrew has gained pratical and first hand knowledge of working with in the creative sector as a web developer. At his position at the Graphic Alliance he proved himself time and time again, which led to the rapid progression from a junior to senior developer.

Several large scale projects have been designed, developed and implemented with Andrew as one of the principle architects. These include a fully fledged bespoke CMS system with over 30 dependant clients, and a innovative E-Commerce system with a suite of powerful and informative vendor admin tools.

Andrews primary programming language is PHP 5, and is sufficient in object orientated development. He is adept in JavaScript, after using the Prototype framework for over two years, making full use of its powerful Ajax libraries.

The nature of Andrews work ensures he fully understands the need for sub version control in particular environments. Yet he can also appreciate there is a definate trade off depending on the project scope, budget and timeframe.

String Films [2006]

String films are a small independant documentary film company. They called upon upon the expertise of some close friends of mine (Jan Grimmond & Tom Mesquitta) to create a strong identity and creative brand. They in turn got me involved with the accompanying site build and development.

Edit: Unfortunatly StringFilms decided on a recent rebuild, and I will be so bold to say somewhat of a downgrade.

A simple clean, somewhat innocent design was developed. The navigation defying convention and sitting within the footer

Clients showreel. Showing flash video plugin. Sometimes its difficult to merge simplistic free hand drawing with the modern day calculated techonologies.

Odds & Sods

Small flash navigation component I built for my first personal website 5 years back. Think this puppy was done in flash mx!
