Creating a new website for Cordie

Creating a new website for Cordie

Huge thanks to Cordie for asking me to create a new version of their website. I had worked with Cordie previously so it was brilliant to get re-acquainted with the directors and wider team. Cordie, who are based in the New Forest, “delivers world class training in procurement, sales, negotiation and contracting”. Cordie offers “a wide range of practical online and classroom learning options, with training and study centre locations throughout the UK.”

Video and photo shoot featuring a VW T6.1 camper by Wessex Vans

What is it about the VW camper van? It’s a classic sure enough. The old style van that conjures up images of California surfer dudes and endless blue skies and ocean. It is a part of popular culture that has endured for 60 years. The modern vans are cool too though and especially when they have been customised with body kits, lowered suspension and cool alloy wheels.

This photo shoot for Tweedy Clothing’s jewellery range gave me the opportunity to do some more product photography. Jewellery is such an interesting photography subject as the pieces are always beautiful and interesting to look at and especially up close.

Roll forward and it was time to upgrade the site to a full e-commerce store. Ann had been running the site for that period and was receiving great feedback about how fantastic the site looked, but now it was time to make it easier for customers to buy the jewellery items directly on the site.

Website upgrade for Tweedy Clothing

Website upgrade for Tweedy Clothing

The Tweedy Clothing team had already set up their website complete with a shopping cart on Squarespace but had ran in to some problems and needed some help to get the store functioning better and to show the extensive range of clothing products in the best way and to make the user experience for the shopper as smooth as possible.

I reconfigured the online store, made improvements to the home page as well as adding a whole load of content.

As I write this in May 2020 we are in the middle of the Covid 19 pandemic with the lockdown restrictions still in place. Not a great time to be a freelancer! When the Punk Scholars Network asked me to build their new website a couple of weeks back the timing couldn’t have been better.

Creating a promotional film with a difference featuring Mike Osman as Donald Trump

I recently had the pleasure of creating a promotional video with a difference featuring none other that President Donald Trump! It wasn’t the real U.S president of course but was in fact the brilliant impressionist Mike Osman. It was the first time I had met and worked with Mike and what a brilliant and funny experience it was.
