The Adventure Calendar of Mr Timothy Hope

The Adventure Calendar of Mr Timothy Hope
 
Timothy Hope, desperate to impress the beautiful but disdainful Lady Misericordia, stows away on Lord Daunt's expedition to the North Pole, and finds himself caught up in an adventure of high seas, deep crevasses, slavering wolves, reindeer sleigh rides and much, much more, with only his wits and inventiveness to keep him and his friends alive.

Planet Protectors are a new range of environmentally aware action figures from the Early Learning Centre.

I helped develop the site and and its content. I built it in Flash to Will Richards' colourful and dramatic designs.

The aim was to give the children an online destination that complemented and expanded on the world of the characters.

It's the show that's big, not the giraffe.

This was a short series of tiny animated interstitials for Nickelodeon in the UK. Originally it was going to be a chat show hosted by a Giraffe in a Spacestation (although no one can remember why) but then he had as guests a pair of Goldfish with astronomical IQs and minimal attention spans and they took over.

Well, yes, FightBox.FightBox was an interactive TV show for the BBC. Players could download a PC game from the BBC website and use it to create and train their own FightBox warriors. The most successful players won a place in the televised competition.
