Interests

I also like making websites and interactive resources. This site and www.oaklands.ac.uk/thebox are a few of the sites that I have designed and made. It keeps me busy as these sorts of things require updating constantly. I also done the odd video editing in software like MS Movie Maker and Serif Movie Plus. I have edited a simple student council video, added transitions, and overlaid text. I am currently editing a video of Oaklands BBQ in 2008. Something I have always had an interest in is Apple Macs. I had a few while at college and because it was during my college years I had to sell them for fund reasons, but these were the best computers I have ever had, never had a problem with them. They were a iBook G2, iBook G3 and a Dual Core Mac Mini. Mac's do exactly what they say on the tin, unlike the Microsoft products where there is always a fault somewhere.
