Summer

The personal webspace of James Dunn

Updating the blog has been on my to-do list for about six weeks now, so I thought I'd break my two months of editorial silence with an update as to what's been happening.

• James Dunn BSc (Honours). I have now graduated! I achieved a 2.1 in Multimedia Technology and Design and had the graduation ceremony at Wembley Conference Centre on 18th July. This also signals the end of my time at Brunel University, and I moved away from London at the end of June. The rest of my room mates (Rob, Irma and Reza) opted to remain in the house, and have found a new person to fill my room. I wish them all every success in the future.
• Client Work. I have been working on a number of freelance projects this summer. These include a website for Concept Foods Ltd which is now complete, an ecommerce site for a startup company called "RulerReading" (currently under development), and an XHTML/CSS exercise in building Stuart Graham.info according to the clients design. Also in the progress is a site for a drum'n'bass DJ, and a redesign of JD-Works.
• Night of the Living Legends. This was a big success with over 120 people attending and the party running all night! Some of the best costumes included "Where's Wally", "Tomb Raider" and "Game Boy", although I have to admit that my own attempt was rather poor after a week spend rushing round setting everything up! I will get round to uploading the pictures and video from the 'Diary Room' just as soon as I get time.
• Holiday! On 1st September I am off to Spain for ten days to visit a friend living out there. Full report when I get back.
• What's Next? I'm currently looking for jobs in the web design field, and have a few ideas as to where I might end up.
