No.8, the Soho-based creative audio and VFX studio, announces the addition of Hannah Webster to its audio team as a sound designer.
With over six years of experience in the industry, Hannah joins No.8 after a year of freelancing at prominent studios like 750MPH, UNIT, Be Grizzlee and Animated Storyboards. Prior to this, she was full time at UNIT and Jungle, where her sound design career took flight.
Hannah's portfolio showcases a diverse range of work, including campaigns for major brands like SkyBet, British Vogue, Alpro, LEGO, Red Bull, Walkers, and St Mungos. Her work on the latter earned her a well-deserved shortlist nomination at the Young Arrows 2023.
Outside of the commercial realm, Hannah has contributed her sound design talents to Nickelodeon shows, the Audrey Hepburn documentary 'Audrey 2020,' and notable short films such as 'Embers,' the Oscar-qualifying 'Area Boy,' and the award-winning 'Blood Rites.'
Expressing her excitement about joining No.8, Hannah shared, "I'm so excited and chuffed to be joining No.8. I've always admired the level of work they produce and the creativity behind it all. Plus, they have always given off such a great team vibe, which I am excited to add to. After a year of freelancing, I'm overjoyed to be back in Soho full time and joining such a collaborative team with amazing talent."
Sam Robson, creative director and partner at No.8, enthusiastically welcomed Hannah to the team, "We're extremely excited to welcome Hannah to No.8 as she's someone who will add so much to the already strong audio offering we have here. Her awards nominations and rapidly growing reputation make this a great opportunity to add Hannah to the team and amplify our shared belief in the importance of diversity in the industry. Hannah thrives off not only having a real passion for sound, but from client feedback, is a pleasure to sit in a room with for hours on end. We can't wait for her to get involved."
With the addition of Hannah Webster, No.8 further strengthens its audio capabilities and reinforces its commitment to fostering a diverse and talented team.
