Hello there, my name is Ingrid Trollope and I’m an interactive designer from New Zealand.
At present I’m based in London, United Kingdom.
I currently I work at the BBC in the Future Media & Technology Design team as a Designer.
Previously I worked at Mind Candy as a Interactive Designer on Moshi Monsters – an interactive online project aimed at the youth market. Mind Candy previously developed one of the first commercial Alternate Reality Games (ARGs) Perplex City.
My last role before I left New Zealand was for a software development company called Intergen on their Interactive team, a role I held since early 2006.
I also contract and consult via my company, www.trumpetdesign.co.nz and am involved with the soon to be famous (or more likely, but hopfully not, infamous…) ideas machine The Company of Others.
I have a Bachelor of Design, majoring in Interactive Design, from Massey University School of Design in Wellington.
I thought since I’m on my Mac most of the time anyway, I might as well report on a few of my observations…
Enjoy : )
