Date 2009 – 2013
Type Digital Production Studio
Role Technical Partner
Pirata was a digital production studio founded in 2008 by ex-Dare colleagues Eduardo and David. They asked me to join them and I became their technical partner. We created bespoke campaigns for ad agencies as well as working directly for some big companies and brands.
Our work spanned the end of the Flash Era and into the dawn of mobile web – responsive sites, iOS and Android apps and Javascript development.
In the early days I was building Flash microsites, and by the end of my tenure I was more involved with pitching, designing system architecture and managing and growing the technical team.
We worked on some amazing projects, far too numerous to list them all here but the thumbnails below give you a good feel.
