Taronga Conservation Society

At the end of 2008, I overhauled the art direction, structure and all design for TCSA, Taronga Zoo and Taronga Western Plains Zoo online. They have only implemented about 5% of the work I’ve done for them so far - and are rolling out the new designs as they are developed. But over the summer the online sales and visitation to the site increased dramatically. And they were all most delighted too, which is always nice.

Apples the Jeweller

This is just a little quick lightbox gallery for my sister. Well, she’s not really my sister, but I love her a lot!

The logo was drawn by our friend Tim. You can’t buy that style.

Gene Pool

This is part of a quick little poster and edm for a creative commons competition to mutate media and the ABC’s archives.

Molenberg Bread

Animation and flash for a funny little microsite for Helgas Molenberg bread, set in the fictional eurpoean town of Molenberg, where everything is on a steep angle and they eat bread to get energy. Or something. Agency: BMF

Walk the Great Wall

I worked on this lovely project as a flash animator in the creative team at RMG. To encourage kids to get more active, they track their steps using a pedometer from a cereal box. Each day they enter the number of steps they have walked and follow a dragon along the great wall of china, unlocking a new gateway of interactivity and games every 10,000 steps. Cool.

Process Diagram

Makes wild scrawlings from the mind of a strategic genius appear really rather simple.

ABC Pool

Pool is an ABC Radio National initiative with Australian universities to provide a collaborative, social networking space for emerging media makers. It hinges on the creative commons concepts of sharing, remixing and re-using to create new work and new relationships. They asked me to develop the identity and logo as well as the intial art direction and design of the website templates. And a whole bunch of other posters and promotional artwork.

Richard Powers

This is a custom, drag and drop Content Management System that I designed and built for the talented Richard Powers. Its really intuitive, and allows him to manage his entire photographic database online. Actually it does heaps more than that too.

triple j Unearthed

I designed this site back at the ABC in 07 - it is probably one of my more successful designs and it came so easily at the time. I did not want it to look like a music website, or at all trendy - so I went with this subterannean environment as a backdrop. And did heaps of illustrations of bugs being born out of flouro sacs. Hmm. Now I just like the tag search visualizer thingy I designed in flash (pictured left). Some hip actionscript engineer made the whole thing work. Oh, and the Unearthed site won a couple of AMIA awards too. woo-eeee.

Balancing Nature

A small site for an ABC Radio National program called Balancing Nature, focusing on conservation efforts and endangered species. I designed all these intricate maps showing hotspot regions and threats. I love the ABC. I love maps.

triplej

triple j (2004 - 2007)

I worked full-time for ABC New Media for nearly 4 years. In 2004 I redesigned and built the entire triple j website. I did all the graphic and web design, program logos and HTML, plus a lot of the flash animation. It was ahead of its time in broadcasting, mp3 downloads, podcasting and user-generated content and remains one of the most popular and successful music websites in the world - getting over a million hits a week or something, consistently.

Telstra Demos

In 2007 I storyboarded, designed and built quite a few flash demonstrations for Telstra Business to help consumers understand how Next-G products, Video Collaboration and New Dimension products work. They were scripted and executed/animated in sync with voice overs. Agency: Eclipse
