Hungry Talks

 

Hungry Talks is a student-run, international, multi-media live show. The 10-part series connects advertising students with industry professionals through a mix of live interviews, games and pre-recorded segments. In 2022 we brought a 2000s nostalgia theme to our episodes and dialled the silliness up to 100. 

My roles include co-hosting, art directing, strategic planning, producing, scriptwriting and little bits of everything else. I also directed and edited the intro video played at the beginning of each episode. 

I was privileged to work alongside Anna Upton, Dimitri Adamopoulos, Emilia Lakhi, Simon Macawili and Maddie Collett for nearly 6 months to create HT.
