These included work at The Age newspaper, Media Giants and the Essendon Football Club, as well as hosting Channel 31's Real Time Racing, and conducting a series of interviews over three years at the annual Falls Festival for a historical DVD.[1][3]

Parks' next project saw her presenting a children's DVD, Talking Time,[3] released commercially September 2006 in Australia, Canada, USA and NZ.
