Although I’m still in the process of designing and creating a new version of this site, a few cool things have happened over the last six months that I thought I’d post news of here...

Awards
The Colin and Cumberland project that I’ve been working on over the last year (see left patch) received a ‘Best Website’ and ‘Best Education Programme’ Award at the Celtic Film and Television Festival in Falmouth 2006. It also received a nomination for ‘Best Website Supporting a Television Programme’ and a win for ‘Best Animation Programme’ at the Welsh 2006 BAFTAs.

Congrats to all the TV and Online teams involved at BBC Wales, BBC Northern Ireland and BBC Scotland as well as Axis Animation in Glasgow. I’ll be discussing my involvement with this project in more detail when the new site goes live!

In Development
Currently I’m involved in the creation of a couple of interesting Broadband Pilot Schemes for BBC Wales Education. The first is a series of ‘Interactive Plays on Citizenship’ featuring contemporary versions of Greek tragedies. The second is an ‘Online Learning Channel’ that features video, audio and interactive activities from the BBC Wales Education and Learning archive. Again, I’ll post info on both these projects a.s.a.p.
