Having cut his teeth in the late nineties as a Series Producer in Children's television at the BBC and Disney in the UK, he crossed to the dark side to pioneer a swathe award-winning projects using Interactive TV and hybrid broadband video. Among the highlights were a multiscreen video service for Live 8, the first mass participation TV history vote in the UK - Great Britons, a nationwide crowd-sourced citizen science experiment using distributed computing to drive climate modelling, and a blended media serious game that was one of the first to mix video seamlessly with flash.</span><br /><br /><span>In 2007 he returned to the children's sector to head up all the BBC's digital services for children - leading the CBeebies and CBBC interactive teams through a period of great creative renewal. During his tenure, the broadcaster massively increased its spend on Children's digital content to become a world leader with ground breaking transmedia projects, a mix of programme support sites and casual gaming, and the junior iPlayer.</span><br /><br /><span>When it was announced his department was relocating to the North of England, Marc decided it was time for a new direction and has since been focussing in Connected TV and Mobile services of all shapes and sizes. His company helps clients develop practical strategies and products that are "grounded in the real world", and designed around how children and parents really use digital media.
