I designed, edited and wrote for the Weekly Digest, published by the University of Sydney's Information and Communications Technology unit's Applications Services group.

I produced the newsletters ISDialog and CPD Flash, which were published by Yamatake's International Department. I also wrote select stories for inclusion.

  • 'SDC 21 Pickles a Peck of Perfect Tsukemono'
  • 'Hall-Effect Sensors: A Fruitful Advance'
  • 'Compact Solutions, Broad Applicability'

Annual reports

Over a period of several years, I helped to write copy for Yamatake's Annual Report. And in 1997, I managed production of the document from start to finish.

Corporate videos

Working closely with the International Communications Team manager, I helped produce numerous videos showcasing Yamatake's manufacturing, sales, and service capabilities.

Materials I provided for these projects included copy and original photographs. I also synchronised video and still images with the narration using time keys, and supervised the final narration on several occasions.

Photography

While working at Yamatake, I frequently used the team's Canon EOS kit to take photographs of industrial installations, people, trade shows and buildings. These photos were used in marketing and corporate communications vehicles such as brochures, corporate magazines, newsletters, commercial magazines, and videos.

Market research

While with Yamatake's International Business Division I extensively researched control valve manufacturers in Europe and North America and built clickable maps with links to information on over 1900 HTML pages about more than 550 competitor manufacturing plants.
