Changes at Disposable Media

It's with a huge mixture of excitement and sadness as I share the news that I'm no longer the Editor of Disposable Media.

Luckily, there's a great replacement in the shape of former TV and Films Editor, and all-round talented guy Keith Andrew, who is now heading the DM team.

Meanwhile I'm continuing my involvement as Editor-in-Chief, focusing on the direction of DM, marketing, advertising, and planning.

There are several reasons for the change. I've had a great 18 months or so heading what is essentially a great group project, and trying to do it justice for the people working on DM, and the people reading it, but various other things, ranging from changes in my career, to impending fatherhood, have meant that I haven't had the time to do it justice.

We're also got shed loads of ideas and plans which I haven't had time to work on, because we're trying to put out the best free downloadable PDF magazine, and website, we can, and heading that up can take a pretty big commitment.

I've got to know Keith really well over the last 18 months, and I know he's got a very clear idea of what works, and how we can improve over the next year. He's also a great writer, and has got us some great interviews and features. Plus he's slightly more photogenic!

Meanwhile I'm looking at new websites, blogs, ways to allow you to get more involved, and ways we can find investment/advertising to improve what we do, without it getting in the way of our main aim in all this:

To share the best content, images and designs from everywhere around us...



It also means there's never been a better time to get involved in DM, especially now that the mean, tetchy old Editor has been replaced by a nicer, younger, and more fashionable version. We're particularly looking for designer types to get involved, and it can be a real benefit to have DM in your portfolio, so why not drop us a line...disposablemedia@gmail.com
