PechaKucha Brighton
A PechaKucha fan since being invited to present at one of the first UK nights back in 2003 at the ICA London, Woody produced the official regular nights in Brighton for 5 years. PechaKucha means 'Chit Chat' in Japanese and it's format is simple, yet highly engaging.
Presenters show 20 slides for 20 seconds each. Created by Astrid Klein and Mark Dytham, two European architects, based in Tokyo Japan. Find out more about the global creative network and find your favourite PechaKucha presentation here
With an incredible team - Alex, Katie, Carly, Claire and Fleur - Woody hosted and coordinated the evenings of these quick-fire talks.
Building a loyal fanbase, each night was sold out. We are proud to say that over 100 presentations were collected, with many making Global PK of the Day.
Studio Woody is proud to design the posters for PechaKucha Brighton.
