Matt Booth’s Summary

I've been in the design industry for the last 15 years, the last 9 of which in new-media design and Flash development.

Two years ago now I decided to go freelance. In that time I've worked with the likes of McFaul, Magnetic North, Love Creative, Tak, Tonic, Bloc and Poke

Samples of my work can be viewed at www.flashtemple.com, new work is added on a regular basis.

In the first year of freelance I won best freelancer at the Big Chip Awards.

I've also worked for Computer Arts and Computer Arts Projects magazines, both being interviewed and writing tutorials.

Towards the of 2008 I set up the creative meetup group, www.northerndigitals.com. This is an informal meetup for all manor of digital creatives based in and around Manchester.

I've also just set up the t-shirt brand Boom! with my wife. You can see the designs at www.weareboom.com or buy them from shop.weareboom.com. All our t-shirts are organic cotton and ethically made.
