background:
Chris Dawson has been designing interactive solutions for well over 10 years. Graphic design degree specialising in "design for screen". Began using Macromedia Director in 1992. Corporate presentation work then commercial CD-rom projects until the internet arrived and he began to apply his experience here - for example working with Microsoft UK on some ground-breaking web content.

With the arrival of Shockwave (and later Flash) he was able to produce creative interactive solutions, this time through the web. He has worked for high-profile clients for a large agency in London and Bristol, as well as producing experimental Flash and Director work (awarded Macromedia Site of the Day in August 2001 for "the tallhat puzzles"). He has worked as lead designer on a whole range of creative projects - for adidas, Guinness, HSBC, Microsoft, Orange, Peugeot, British Tourist Authority, MEB, Barclays and DHL). He is now a leading creative web designer in the UK.
