Developing his success directing Food Commercials for clients such as Masterfoods, Australian Beef & Lamb, Pork and Inghams Chicken and most recently Continental. Hayward developed the series as a project for ‘Marion’s Kitchen’ – Marion’s own range of Thai ingredient kits. Hayward worked with media agency Benedictus Media to create an online launch campaign based around a concept which included a series of podcasts showing Marion cooking her ingredient kits as well as some of her own recipes.
