I joined Shoot the Moon to start-up the digital arm of the business. Initially my role was PM/Producer focused whilst remaining hands on. I had to balance my time between coordinating the larger projects with the help of internal and external resource, whilst single-handedly crafting the smaller projects and production work. I held strategy meets to discuss opportunities and arranged client workshops, frequently at board level. Day to day, I was solely responsible for all digital output at Shoot the Moon, anything from websites and mobile apps, email campaigns and display advertising through to showreels and presentations. As the department became profitable and busier, we required and took on more staff, notably another digital project manager.In my time at Shoot the Moon, I built up a sound understanding of the digital spectrum, and the deliverables required to get from pen and paper through to publicised content.
