Senior Interactive Developer
@
AMX Studios, AMX Network, Arnold Interactive
Details
Built websites for some of the UK's biggest brands, including HP, Intel, BT, Barclays, Fox kids and Fosters. Oh, and Lea & Perrins.
Lots of Flash, bespoke CMSs, dynamic HTML (ah, those were the days) and wishing Netscape 4 would go away.
The agency kept being renamed and rebranded. I joined when it was called AMX Studios, and left when it was Arnold Interactive.
The office on Carnaby Street was probably the best.
