Ashley Tisdale And Lindt Team Up For 'It Started with HELLO' Featuring Amy Pham, Lindsey Stirling & More

Premium chocolatier Lindt, Make Studios and Ashley Tisdale, join together to create an exciting, new romantic comedy series: "It Started with HELLO."

This original digital series celebrates the national launch of Lindt HELLO, a premium chocolate collection inspired by classic American treats.

Created by Lindt in partnership with Maker, "It Started with HELLO" is an interactive series that captures couples as they make their first connections and encourages viewers to find out what happens after "hello" by choosing their own ending to each story.

Chocolate lovers can get in on the action with a chance to win a variety of fun prizes through the Lindt HELLO Sweet Connections Sweepstakes.

The digital series, featuring a teaser and four short episodes inspired by the cheeky personalities of Lindt HELLO products, will live on Maker Studios' fashion + beauty network, The Platform (youtube.com/theplatform).

Tisdale brings her behind-the-camera expertise to "It Started with HELLO," serving as producer for the first episode, reviewing scripts, wardrobe and set design, as well as lending her creativity on set in collaboration with Lindt Chocolate and Maker.

"'It Started with HELLO' is different from anything that I've ever worked on," says Tisdale.

"As a producer, I'm excited about creating unique content and sharing it with my fans through different platforms. I can't wait to see the series come to life!"
