TV producer Russ Malkin seeks designer for website

Russ Malkin, who produced and directed television programmes the Long Way Round and the Long Way Down, is seeking a digital consultancy to redesign his adventure travel website Big Earth.

The site allows people to share pictures and videos of their holidays and offers advice on gaining visas and filming travel documentaries.

However, Malkin is not happy with the website’s current look and feel. He says, ‘I want to find a design consultancy which is excited by the website and its possibilities, which is creative and at the cutting edge of Web design. The website could be so much better than it is for the user.’

Malkin hopes to be able to ‘take the website to mobile phones’ and to find a group ‘as soon as possible, with a depth of knowledge, but which is not going to charge tens of thousands of pounds’.

Malkin claims that this is the first of three new websites he is planning to launch.
