Specialist in Social TV, Multiplatform Engagement, TV Apps, Transmedia and Connected TV introduce yourself

Hi all,

I work in that area between creativity and technology - and am working a number of parties in empowering the narrative and bringing viewers closer to the story using emerging technologies around second screen engagement, social TV etc. Much of the network and knowledge has been gleaned over two years of publishing http://www.appmarket.tv , educating various sectors as an event speaker, working with the likes of ITV, NBCU, MIT Media Labs, C4, BBC, and others in bringing forward new technologies and helping bridge the divide between incumbents and newcomers.

I also have written a couple of pitches that bolt on some of the technology partners I work with - http://www.thefunded.co.uk and http://www.walktheplank.tv and have experience in bringing audiovisual productions and broadcasters to IPTV http://www.irishbox.tv/ and Connected TVs, bypassing the traditional gatekeepers of the living room.

I am looking for partners to help add value to their own productions using new technologies (if you don't have multiplatform strategy in the UK now, you are bottom-piled) as well as find new partners to help develop my own ideas. I am working with the former production designer of Big Brother in Holland and an ex-BBC Interactive BAFTA guru on our own formats.

Best
