Capital Sound is one of Europe’s leading providers of hired sound equipment for events that matter. Along with putting together freelance crews, they organise transport facilities to cater for all your tour & project needs, worldwide. To complement their sound offering, Capital Productions provides complete sound, lighting, staging and transport solutions for a variety of applications. Their services include production management, budgeting and project support.

Working with Helen Stergios, I built twin HTML and Flash web sites for Capital Sound and Capital Productions in line with their new corporate identity designed by Helen.

I built a Flash animation, designed by WPA Pinfold, for the npower Renewables home page.

Fire & Ice Creative is a multi-disciplinary practice that combines aspects of art and design to create unique solutions for the visual environment. Established in 2003 by artist Simon Lee Dicker and graphic designer Chantelle Henocq, Fire & Ice is engaged with all aspects of visual communication from corporate identity to contemporary art.

Their multi-disciplinary approach encourages projects that blur the boundaries between creative disciplines with a focus on art for public spaces, graphic design for print and web and art and design educational workshops.

Based on designs by Fire & Ice, I built their Flash web site. The site content is stored as XML files which allows the client to make minor amends to the site without any knowledge of Flash.

I built the Flash npower Cricket Game 2001 whilst at Bostock and Pollitt. In 2002 I built an improved version from that ground up based entirely around mathematics and a basic 3D engine which enabled me to add the folowing features:

• Backgrounds and players with Parallax Scrolling
• Motion camera which follows the ball when hit
• Bowler profiles (slow, fast, spin) with infinite bowling trajectories
• A greater level of batting skill required

Unfortunately this version of the npower Cricket Game was never launched. However, you can play the previous version of the npower Cricket Game here:
