Stwnsh

Working with Boomerang+, Stwnsh is a TV service aimed at 7 - 12 year olds on S4C.

I work closely with the production team, delivering engaging content to our target audience in and outside of Wales.

We are constantly redeveloping the technology, content and focus to keep up with trends, making Stwnsh one of the most exciting dynamic websites to work on.

Games are a huge focus for the site and we are constantly developing new ones.

Our digital productions bring something new to the media landscape in Wales, a new way of engaging with younger viewers.

Cyw

Cyw started life as the online website for Planed Plant Bach in 2006 for S4C.

After a fantastic response from the public, Cyw became the name for the pre-school service and has continued to grow in popularity.

Over the past four years Cyw has won a Bafta, RTA Award, Celtic Media Award as well as being shortlisted for other prestigious awards.

I am proud to say that I have worked on the project from day one and still continue to lead developments online for PC’s and mobile platforms.

Dosbarth Mr Twrch (Working title)

I’m currently working with my talented team at Cube to develop a new way of producing content.

Aimed towards children aged 4-7, Mr Twrch is an interactive digital production.

Thanks to the technology behind it, production costs of traditional animation are cut significantly and the end product is dynamic and engaging.

The technology engine allows us to quickly develop new scenes and swap skins.

Over the next few months we will be further developing the brand, characters and stories.

Really Horrid World Cup (RHWC)

After the success of HorridHenry.me, we pitched the idea of running online game campaigns for the brand, which would run side by side with live events, like ITV’s coverage of the 2010 World Cup.

Working with Novel Entertainment, we created CiTV’s World Cup campaign, “Horrid Henry’s Really Horrid World Cup”.

We developed the idea, brand and technology platform closely with the client, allowing the project to develop and prosper.

RHWC campaign was run over six weeks, generating a massive increase in traffic to the site.

BBC Games

Working with BBC Wales, we developed three separate game campaigns, each promoting totally different content topics.

- Castles

- Mabinogi

- C2

Since going live we have received positive feedback with the possibility of the games being translated to English and promoted worldwide.

Horrid Henry

Love him or hate him, Horrid Henry is one of CiTV’s biggest kids’ programmes.

In 2009 I started working with Novel Entertainment on creating a new home for Henry online.

Over the past 12 months we have grown the online brand by developing games and content that the audience love.

The website is a hub for the brand, promoting merchandise, entertaining and informing the public and partners worldwide.

Horrid Henry’s popularity is still growing, with the brand going global and a cinema release in 2011.

DoubleSixClub.TV

Working with Boomerang+ and Domino Records, Double Six Club is becoming THE online venue for new emerging music.

With a strong brand, quality music and a good reputation, the website has had a good response with it now being picked up by Channel 4 and shortly to be launched on TV, online and mobiles.

Dewin

This was an open tender by MYM in 2009 to develop a teaching aid for use within hundreds of nurseries.

As a result I pitched the idea of creating a new brand called Dewin.

Dewin is a young super-hero wizard. Together with Doti, his trusted aid, they help promote the Welsh language.

Since winning the tender, we have worked closely with the client, developing the brand across classroom material, merchandise and marketing.

The new brand is growing in popularity, with the aim that Dewin will one day become a household children’s character like Sam Tan and Sali Mail.
