My name is Hudson Hughes, Filmmaker of Comedy;
Look upon my Website, ye Mighty, and despair!
I’m mostly recognised for my online videos, but did you know I’m an award-winning comedian and director working across stage and screen? Me neither! I’m mostly working on developing comedy scripts for TV presently, but below is a selection of other projects past, present and future. And if you’re good and read it all, there’s a showreel for pudding at the bottom.
