Who is Mitchell Page
Mitchell Page is a design graduate with over seven years experience in web & digital media. In this time he has accumulated a wealth of first-hand knowledge and industry experience. He offers this experience to each of his clients via high-quality web design and digital marketing services. More +
My career in the web industry began when I made my first website in 2001 for a small local business. Since then I have completed over 40 websites for clients both locally and internationally.
After completing high school in 2002, I furthered my career during the summer break by doing unpaid work for a local web design company, during which I learned much about best practice web design and client expectations. This continued until 2003 when I began a Design Computing degree at Sydney University – a degree which is tailored for preparing young creative minds for a career in the digital industry.
I've since held a lot of titles: Designer, Website Administrator, Mentor, Researcher, Online Producer and now Creative Director. And with each change my experience and passion for this industry has grown tremendously.
We are now living in an age where computers and the internet are ubiquitous and more personal than ever. Everyday the web is helping people; helping them communicate, helping them pay their bills, helping them with their homework and helping them get from point A to point B, to name just a few. So as long as the web continues to evolve and benefit our connected society, I will continue to help my clients take advantage of the virtually limitless opportunities that are available for their businesses online. Are you with me?

Thesis Dissertation
Abstract: a novel wearable display system for the team sports context is presented, termed TeamAwear. Wearable displays are a class of display that is worn on the body, and used to communicate information about the wearer to the surrounding public. The TeamAwear system aims to actively enhance the awareness and understanding of a team sport for its stakeholders, including athletes, referees, coaches and spectators, without negatively disturbing its game-play.
