Advertising work, yes please

I get lots of requests from Advertising agencies and communcations beuros to perform coding work for them. This for me is great work as I get chance to show off my skills, but also for the agency it is great as…

I have no ambition to become an art director
They usually cannot afford to employ a web coder full time
They get to pull on my RGB (screen) skills as they are use to a CMYK (print) world
The only staff that they can get to work in house on web things tend to have a maximum of 2 years web experience in very small situations. Not 15 years working for some of the largest corporations in the world.
I work to my own agenda, which can mean turning round 40hours of work in a 3 days or working at weekends.

And it does not stop with just the web coding, I can also advise or install any kind of supporting hardware or software infrastructure.

In short, it works out great for all.
