What an interesting time I had last week at The Children’s Media Conference in beautiful sunny Sheffield.
The keynote speech by Henry Winkler blew me away. I had no idea about his struggles with dyslexia or being accepted by his parents. I didn’t know about his advocacy work for children and I certainly didn’t know that [...]
It’s been a little too long since I blogged, but blimey it’s been busy!
I’ve been wrapped up with completing our pitch to the BBC for the @North project. The team have been working on consecutive projects for another large broadcasting company which we’re very pleased with. We’re working on an augmented reality project. We won [...]

Aside from our client work here at Team Cooper HQ, Emma and I have been working on another special project for the past 9 months – another baby!
Over the past couple of months we have had [...]
We went for another look around Electric Works today. I finally got to go on the Helter Skelter and can confirm that it is awesome.
