RM – coders

RM coders press ad

RM are recruiting computing graduates to work with Microsoft technologies like MS-SQL and asp.net. We devised a series of recruitment ads that speak directly to coders of these languages. They are concise, and need no copy as all the necessary information is contained within the code - just like a good piece of programming.

Laura Mitchell – website

Laura Mitchell website

Opera singer Laura Mitchell wanted a simple site that would demonstrate her talents and that she could change, so me and the Gavmotron hatched a plan to create an AJAX website framework using jQuery and Python that would allow tunes to be played and text to be edited in place without refreshing the browser. Thus CanDoDo was born.

The beta currently powers Laura's website, enabling visitors to listen whilst browsing her to edit-in-place and maintain a concert list.

Mouchel – free range brains

Mouchel free range brains

Bright, simple and easy to grasp, this campaign took a leap of faith on the part of Mouchel, different as it is to the traditional approach used to target engineers in recruitment advertising.

The Results

In the first week of the campaign there were more applicants than in the previous four months of activity, and after one month over 1,000 candidates had clicked to apply for jobs and a senior level director had been hired — impressive given the scarcity of candidates within the market. The Telegraph called the campaign "a refreshing change" and Resourcing Magazine featured it as Campaign of the Month.

Cubanite

In 2002 myself and two friends started an events company and were awarded a Princes Trust business start-up grant to tour a salsa show we had devised and presented in Manchester the previous year. As Marketing Director I was responsible for website, national press, theatre brochure and poster advertising. (I also played in the show.)

This flyer is from the third UK tour.

jParallax jQuery plugin

I wrote a parallaxing jQuery plugin to explore ways to give the impression of depth to web graphics, and was a little surprised by the response. It was blogged on ajaxian.com when it was an early Beta and within a week it had clocked up more than 40,000 references on Google. So I had to finish it.

Stafford Long – presentation site

Stafford Long presentation site

At Stafford Long we've been pioneering the use of dynamic websites as presentation tools for pitches. It's a fresh approach that demonstrates a tailored solution and neatly side-steps the usual reliance on Powerpoint. They can also be uploaded to the web for clients to review later.

I designed and built presentations that were used to pitch to the BBC, Danone, Charities Commision, Lex, Accenture, Thales, and the Central Office of Information (UK government).

Django Bates and StoRMChaser

I couldn't stop laughing last night. Django Bates and his 19-piece big band burned through some of the craziest, wackiest music I've heard a big band play. I never buy CDs at gigs. I bought this one.

jParallax jQuery plugin

jParallax was blogged on ajaxian.com when it was an early Beta and when it got popular I went into overdrive to bug-fix it.

CanDoDo website framework

The Gavmotron and I are working on CanDoDo, a simple jQuery / Python AJAJ website 'engine'. The Beta currently powers laura-mitchell.com.
