About me

I’ve had over thirty years experience designing and developing multimedia content for all sorts of platforms, delivery methods and clients. I’ve made hundreds of CDROMs with Director, countless interactive applications with Flash and have spent much of the 21st century making websites with HTML, CSS, Javascript, PHP, MySQL &c. These days I mostly do video-based animation, music composition and sound design.

I’m a dab-hand with Photoshop, Illustrator, After Effects and Audition, can handle a camera, know a thing or two about video formats and am fluent in sound recording, sound effects and music (composition, recording and editing). Oh, and I can also do the odd voiceover too, if required - ask me about my Hugh Laurie impression. Actually, don't, The Wife says it doesn't sound anything like him.

In my spare time I like to ponder the nature of universe and to make biscuits. Well, when I say 'make biscuits', I really mean 'help The Wife to make biscuits' by doing the initial testing of the final baked versions (some people just call that 'eating biscuits') and doing the washing up of the befouled implements.

I am also a serial parenthesiser (no, really) and my penchant for parenthesis is second only to my desire to hyphenate - I just can't-help-it.

Simon Toyne website

Client: MoonAge Media Ltd

Agency: Youniverse Digital Ltd

Designed by Alex at Youniverse and built by me for Gavin at MoonAge, this type of responsive site is just what the doctor ordered. I don't really know what that means in this context, but there you are.

Anyway, the site is location-aware and comes with comes with a bespoke CMS. And, it wasn't too expensive either.

My role? Why... HTML, CSS, Javascript, PHP & MySQL of course. I also sorted out the new server, oversaw the transfer of the domain names and made sure that Simon's email continued to function during the transfer process.

You know you want one.
