The TV show Extreme Cuisine

Co-creator and presenter of a cooking show, filming up to 10 episodes a day.

Format:

• The presenter holds viewers' attention throughout a 40-minute programme on her own.

Objectives:

• Develop and launch an original kitchen-based format.
• Film as many programmes as possible within a tight schedule without sacrificing quality.

What I did:

• Helped create the concept and programme structure.
• Maintained the pace and mood of each episode, keeping up the energy and responding freshly throughout long filming days.
• Improvised within the script so that conversations and situations felt natural rather than staged.

Results:

• The successfully launched show is still running.
• The project received an international award in Berlin.
• This experience helps me confidently host long live events and hold an audience's attention.
