WAYARANG
Care, Culture, and Connection on Country
One of our recent projects saw us collaborating with Wayarang and NAATSIHWP (the National Association of Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander Health Workers and Practitioners) on a powerful initiative that supports mob delivering healthcare on Country.
NAATSIHWP plays a vital role in representing and empowering Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander Health Workers and Practitioners across Australia.
Their work focuses on improving outcomes through culturally safe, community-led care, and they wanted to tell the story of how they listened and learned from the lived experiences of Health Workers and Practitioners across the country.
A Pathway through Policy
Machine was brought in to help NAATSIHWP share the lived experiences of Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander Health Workers and Health Practitioners, highlighting the challenges they face and the solutions driving change.
NAATSIHWP connected with mob across the country to listen, learn, and gather the knowledge behind this work. Using this research, Wayarang and Machine developed a suite of explainer animations that bring these stories to life with clarity, respect, and care for community.
Work That Belongs
Where It Lands
Our focus from day one was clarity, respect, and cultural relevance. Every frame, every word, every design decision was made with purpose, grounded in the knowledge that this work needed to land in community and live there meaningfully.
We worked across scripting, storyboarding, visual design, and full animation production, building a body of content that was not only practical and easy to understand, but deeply aligned with the people and places it was made for. Something that didn’t just explain issues, but shared real experiences and solutions.
We’re proud to have helped tell this story, and even prouder to support a vital Australian program doing the work where it’s most needed, with the people who know it best.
