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.

here’s an example of one of the projects recently completed  McCann Erickson Amsterdam.
