About Jesk

Why Jesk?

The name JESK is made up from our initials, Jessica, Emma, Stella and Kim.

History

Jesk originally traded as Hothouse Multimedia from 1997 to 2001, we were based at 10 Old Burlington St, Mayfair, London. Hothouse made many CD-ROMs and Enhanced CDs for entertainment companies such as UIP and Universal Music. Hothouse produced most of the top ten chart Enhanced CD singles in 1998! We also made the CD-ROM to promote the James Bond film 'Tomorrow Never Dies'.

JESK's main people are Emma Manning & Kim Boulton

Emma has a great eye for design and is also a really good organiser. Emma's has worked for several multimedia & web design companies including Dorling Kindersley, Mayking , AVTV and Netshift.

Kim (a bloke) does all the technical stuff. Kim started his IT career working on several temp jobs before joining EMI Swindon in 1987, then Motorola Swindon for a bit, then Optech in Farnham for several years, then onto Mayking Multimedia in Battersea for a few years before deciding to start up his own business. Kim's also worked on a farm, a bicycle shop, a theatre & several building sites.

In 2001 we moved to a studio at The Maltings, Farnham, Surrey and changed our name to Evolution Creative Limited, Evolution continued to make the odd CD-ROM and Enhanced CD but also expanded our facilites to include professional DVD authoring and web site design. From 2001 to 2008 Evolution Creative made the successful Interactive Karaoke DVD range, SAS Band's 'The Show' DVD, Manfred Mann's 'Evolution' DVD as well as many commercial web sites. We also set up our own web server so that we could offer web hosting for the growing number of web clients we look after.

In 2008 we moved again, this time to the beautiful Gloucestershire town of Lechlade on Thames. We also changed our name again, we thought the Evolution Creative name was a bit too long. So now we're just called Jesk. From 2008 to present we still make a few CD-ROMs, not many people want enhanced CDs or DVDs made any more but we still offer those services.

Most of our current work is designing web sites although never being a company to stand still we branched out to offer mobile application development for iphone, android and windows mobile. We speacialise in Adobe Flex programming. As well as these services we also now offer PC & Mac computer repair services on-site or from our office in Lechlade, we also do PC & Mac network installations, indoor and outdoor wireless networks & and run lechladewifi.co.uk, our local community wi-fi network.

We serve the local areas of Lechlade, Faringdon, Fairford, Highworth & Carterton although we have customers throughout the UK.
