Organisation Development Services is a successful and innovative public sector consultancy specialising in organisation development, workforce planning and change management.

Here I recently took over the management of the ODS monthly e-newsletter. When given supplied content I created a HTML based e-shot containing this months information aswell as a corresponding HTML page on their website to link to. The e-shot is then sent to the selected database in Constant Contact.

I designed this e-communication after being briefed by KP360 to come up with a friendly, simple and clean way of sending monthly information around the employees.

This was to be updated and sent out by the staff, so it had to be easy to update and fit the specifications of an e-shot.

Hong Kong Wetlands Park

admin — Tue, 22 Sep 2009 15:12:19 +0000

I was solely responsible for programming ten kiosk interactives which feature at Hong Kong Wetlands Park a world class tourism, educational and conservation facility.

Each designed to draw the user into learning through mixed media in a visually interesting way. These interactives include gameplay scenarios, audio and video files, and all are translated into four languages, easily changeable at the touch of a button. This was quite easily the largest project i’ve ever worked on, with a budget of over a million pounds.

I was sole programmer of fifteen bespoke kiosk interactives situated in the Wimbledon Lawn Tennis Museum.

These programmes give a broad range of easily accessible information to the user based on various subjects.
Some interface with external hardware to give a more physically interactive experience, and a selection generate statistics based on user input. The majority include audio and video integration for a rich media experience. Subjects of the interactives range from information about players over the years, the fashion, all the way to facts and figures about where tennis balls are manufactured. The museum has also been shortlisted for awards and won.
