Lance Cooper’s Summary
I am in my second year of employment after graduating from Wintec's bachelor of Media Arts with the top award for Digital Media.
I work primarily as a Web Designer, and I have commercial experience working on major websites such as careerjet.co.uk and oleole.com, working for small businesses designing them high quality, good value and well performing websites (corodingo.co.nz, directicivil.co.nz), coding and designing Wordpress blogs for musicians, artists and small businesses (artwork-toots.co.nz, popstrangers.com, mysterycreekwines.co.nz), designing, coding and templating medium scale websites (100 pages +) using open source CMS systems (Whangarei Girls High School), and throughout all of these projects I use a high quality of HTML and CSS design.
As well as strong web design skills, I have a little commercial experience in Animation. I created low end graphics for Television commercials which were broadcast on New Zealand's national television stations.
My current base is in London, United Kingdom but I still retain strong links to New Zealand where I have a large network of people.
Lance Cooper’s Specialties:
Strong HTML and CSS, and the foundations of Javascript (+ JQuery) and Actionscript although not currently a working knowledge (which I am actively seeking to rectify!).
Conceptual skills include working from concept to completion on design and animation projects, both (quite) large and small!

Designing from scratch new facets of an already thriving website. This job involves both design and front end web development. It has a large global audience in many languages, and requires flexible skills in HTML and CSS design. As well as supporting legacy browsers, the future has to be in mind at all times. This is an interesting and challenging role where learning is paramount to success, which I love. I work within a Mason framework which I was able to pick up easily, carrying on from my last position where the developers used PHP in a Symfony environment.
