Hello. The name’s Tim; front-end developer and designer, motion graphics hacker, backend tech mangler and occasional web game creator by day, gin and guitar abuser by night. Here’s some of my latest work and occasional ramblings. Use the menu up top to filter as you wish!

Xmas Present Game
The .swf might be a dying format but Flash lives! Once more, I'm buggered if I'm going to try and get this running in pure JS. Flash to Swiffy, a few tweaks (no support for startDrag() as yet) and we have an HTML5 ready game. In fact, this game is up for sale if...
HTML5 Rugby Game
So, the Rugby's finally over but I was sick of it before it began! The brief was to make a 'simple' rugby game to send out before the World Cup. 'Sure' I said, sounds fun... 2 months later it's finished. Have to say I learned a lot about playability and artificial...
Lacoste 007
Ah, the joys of HTML5 banners! Hand-coded Sizmek stuff with a sprinkling of Greensock. View Expandable
JISC iPad App
Once again, Flash comes to the rescue! JISC needed an iPad app designed and developed that could be used at conferences and exhibitions that could capture interested parties' contact data. Three day turn-around! Built in Flash and delivered though Air (with a little...

Source Slalom Game
Here's a challenge! The brief here was to produce a 3d style ski game that will work on mobile - IN THE BROWSER! So - where to start? Pure javascript? Some form of game framework? Create JS? Euuurghhhh. After a lot of mucking around I simply went back to good ol'...
Sonic Highways
Sometimes I love my job! Getting to do banners all day for one of my favourite bands. Brilliant album as well - a real grower.
Lego Batman
Finally managed to get my kids interested in what I do! A nice set of expandable Sizmek banners for the new Lego game.
Mikey Rowe
I was approached initially just for some advice on whether a site like this could be done, as a friend was told it was impossible. A site this this would have been relatively simple in the good ol Flash days, but trying to get this done in HTML? I can't resist a good...
Floppy Harold
I don't know if anyone heard about 'Flappy Bird', there wasn't a whole massive media hype about this very crappy indie game at all... Anyway, on the back of all that, I managed to make a version of it for the lovely Cabana restaurant people to include in the App I...
Disney Summer 2014
I quite enjoyed this one! Not much to go on as far as creative went, the only real clue from the TV ad were the flags waving in the Summer breeze. So, with a bit of head-scratching and the principle of animating Perlin Noise, I ended-up with these little beauties!
Class of 92
A little experiment that went very right. Originally this was supposed to be a pure HTML5 promo banner for the file 'Class of 92' but given the advances that 'Swiffy' has made recently, this was produced in Flash to get the quickest possible mockup for approval, then...
Boogie
A few months ago I got a call from 'serial entrepreneur' Jamie Barber who had been bored on a plane, listening to music on his phone and thought that he'd like to have a small version of himself dancing to the music as entertainment and is that something I could...
Hooligan Factory
A set of Medamind banners here for the 'Hooligan Factory' film- expandables, homepage takeovers, all the good stuff. A good chunk of video editing in AfterEffects and all-round Flashery.
Maleficent
I love jobs like these where the supplied assets are so beautifully produced, it makes them a joy to work with. This was a full suite of banners, takeovers, iOS only HTML5 ads, intersitials - the lot!
Ho ho ho
Happy new year interwebs! Here's a bit of fun I produced for London Agency KHWS as their yearly digital xmas card, tweaked a bit to protect the guilty. A simple but quite fun game produced in HTML / CSS / JS, to get the broadest gadget reach, with some HTML5 audio for...
Woburn Brasserie
Customised responsive Wordpress site
M&C, M&S, S&M
(Well, maybe not the S&M part!) I recently had a short contract at M&C Saatchi for what I thought was going to be banner construction. Turns out it was a design brief. Has to be said, it was nice being able to get a brief, fulfill it, a few tweaks then - bam -...
8trackmusicsolutions Redesign
Another move away from a previous all-singing Flash website, 8 Track Music Solutions wanted to rework of their website, so here's the latest incarnation. Content-managed through Wordpress and fully responsive for tablets and mobile and even includes my custom-built...
marchatfield.co.uk
With all the current hoo-ha around 'web standards', I've updated my old Flash site for BBH creative director Marc Hatfield into HTML5. Not a particularly easy port as it involves a lot of video and audio (which is where HTML5 really falls down in my opinion) but we...
Javascript Programming
My experience with Javascript over the last few months in a nutshell.
Seraphim Corporate ID
Corporate ID design for Seraphim Asset Management. Logo design, stationery and website development. The website is content managed and fully reponsive (of course).

Client Music Admin
One of 8track Music Solutions clients recently asked if it was possible for a way of being able to see what music has been played in their venues over the last few hours, so they could keep an eye on their music policy, make sure it was all on-brand. Some form of...
KHWS Xmas Card
Ah Xmas. The time of year when clients want a religiously neutral, non-weather-specific, 'holiday' online interactive card produced. To be honest, I dont think I can come-up with any more snowfall-based ideas! However, the folks at KHWS came up with the concept this...
Random Quote Generator
An exercise in HTML using a splash of jQuery, a soupçon of Greensock, a dash of PHP and a MySQL garnish... I've been collecting quotes for fair few years now. Whenever I see or hear a great one that tickles me in the right places, I stick it into my CMS for later....
