The MultiMedia Corporation was a multimedia production company created by a management buy-out of the BBC’s Interactive Television Unit in 1990.
Joining the MultiMedia Corporation in 1991, after graduating from the Royal College of Art, my role was as an Assistant Producer, progressing later to Producer.
I produced many leading edge projects, mostly CD-ROMs, custom exhibition pieces and bespoke software for alternative platforms, such as the Apple Newton.
