Creator Of The Week: Izzy Radford

This week’s featured creator is Izzy Radford. Izzy is a bold, young and exciting new writer who leads the Scripted department for TV production company ‘Ten66’.

After dropping out of uni at 18, she wrote ‘The Making of an Education’ all about her experiences after leaving, which was commissioned by BBC Arts as an audio drama. She has had short plays and poems published and is active on TikTok at @izzyradcomedy where she has amassed over 45K followers with her comedy vids including the excellent ‘Stage Manager of Your Year 9 Play’:

Many remain sceptical or reluctant about TikTok, but creators like Izzy are proving that with good ideas and well thought out observations and characters, the short video format can be perfect for building an audience and getting your work seen if harnessed well.
