Chris Hitchings

About

I’m a senior digital content and social media expert with over a decade of experience delivering award-winning, social-first campaigns for the UK’s biggest content houses. My experience ranges from campaign strategy to content creation, and everything in between. Let's talk about how I can support your brand and content to work even harder online. Right now, I’m leading content and campaign strategy at Channel 4, where I’ve shaped standout campaigns for shows like 24 Hours in Police Custody, Top Guns, It’s A Sin, The Piano, GBBO and the launch of Channel 4.0. I’m experienced editing in Premiere, working on all areas of shoots, wrangling stakeholders, coming up with big ideas - and then making them happen. Take a look at my work on Top Guns: Inside the RAF on my website - do you get much bigger than filming on an active military base with 1,000mph jets taking off around you? Previously, I supported online success at ITV News and drove digital excellence at Good Morning Britain, filming and producing digital-first content around breaking news and crafting unmissable social moments. It all started making birds and badgers go viral for BBC Springwatch, following a stint as an on-air reporter for BBC local radio. I really love making cool digital and social content which resonates with young audiences and drives millions of views. I’m most at home working in the factual, news and current affairs sphere - but I’ve also led hugely impactful and award-winning campaigns in other genres, most notably drama. I’m open to talking about my experience and how that can help your brand do even better online. Get in touch. Curious to know more? Check out my portfolio at my website: chris-does-content.com
