Last month I received a phone call from a recruitment agent asking if I’d be interested in working on a contract. I politely declined and said that I much preferred to freelance due to the unmatched level of freedom that it allowed. She then replied that it was for the BBC at MediaCityUK… how could anyone refuse that? So I went for an interview on the 14th, received a congratulatory phone call on the 15th and was given a starting date of the 28th.
I’ve been there for two weeks now, working on some very exciting projects in the Future Media and Technology department. Unfortunately I’m not allowed to discuss the work at all for obvious reasons but I just wanted to post something to explain why my freelancing output may be a little lacking for the next few months!

I’ve just finished work on an interactive prospectus that was commissioned by BFIG.
It’s a Flash-based prospectus that allows students to learn about the many exciting opportunities available at the college through an interactive, media-rich interface. Some of its features include:
- detailed course information
- teacher and student interviews
- image galleries
My responsibilities included developing the application and reproducing the graphics supplied by BFIG in vector form. The content was supplied by the college itself.
