As part of an online gambling harm reduction project, ALPA engaged Michael Roseth from Educational Animations to develop an educational song and animated video.

From day one, Michael embedded himself within the project team and engaged directly with remote Indigenous community members to better understand the underlying causes and challenges surrounding the issue.

His ability to immerse himself in the subject matter and deeply understand the communication challenge made the production and review process seamless.

The final video exceeded engagement benchmarks, generating more than 50 referrals within the first week of distribution.

I look forward to working with Michael again on future projects and could not recommend him more highly as a creative partner and storyteller.

Eddy Alder, Community Engagement Manager

Educational Animations worked with us on a project for our Yolngu language teaching app creating animations of tongue positions for teaching non-aboriginal student correct pronunciation of Aboriginal phonemes. This entailed working with Aboriginal speakers and linguists in an iterative process. Michael's patience and artistic abilities made this an easy and rewarding process.

Michael Christie, Professor of Education.

Working with Michael at Educational Animations was a great experience.

He really listened to our needs as we worked closely with Traditional Owners, taking the time to understand what they wanted to express and translating that into meaningful, culturally grounded resources.

These are thoughtful, culturally appropriate resources that are making a real difference in our community.

Marlena Flynn, Manager Family & Child Centre.

Working with Educational Animations was a very pleasant and productive experience. I especially like Michael’s creative suggestions that provide complicated concepts with clear, concise messages and pictures. He is very responsive to our requests, works to budget and the timeframe required.

Diana Mosca, eGFR Study Manager.

Educational Animations created animated videos and stills for a project to develop a 2 hour course to train teachers in the mandatory reporting of harm and exploitation of children. Michael provided expert advice to the project and his work was timely, of high quality and perfectly pitched for the project. His insightful depiction of classroom and school contexts and characters significantly enhanced the quality of the course.

I've had the pleasure of working with Michael over several projects over the years, and I've also enjoyed watching his work evolve.

One project that stands out was the visual identity he created for our Indigenous Researchers Initiative. He developed a banner that researchers immediately recognised as culturally safe and representative of their work. That's a rare skill.

Michael has a real talent for translating complex ideas into clear, engaging visuals that connect with diverse audiences. He takes the time to understand the communication challenge, then creates resources that are both visually compelling and meaningful to the people they're intended for.

If you're looking for someone who can communicate across cultures through thoughtful visual storytelling, I'd highly recommend working with Michael.

Northern Territory Aids & Hepatitis Council engaged Michael to develop an educational resource about Hepatitis B for culturally and linguistically diverse communities. Michael really helped us to refine the concept and then delivered the project within the required budget and timeframe.  The Hep B Side video was published via our social media channels and successfully engaged our target audiences.

Suresh Sharma, Nurse Practitioner.

Educational Animations helped us translate the complex concept of Positive Duty into practical, relatable stories. Michael took the time to understand the legislation, our purpose and the diverse audiences we needed to reach. The completed resources are clear, engaging and accessible, showing organisations not only what Positive Duty means, but what it can look like in practice.
