Kind words from past clients

“We look forward to working with her again.”

Hayley was recently contracted to assist with some animations, for an educational product we've been developing. From the outset, I found her to have strong communication skills, excellent attention to detail, a quick turnaround on tasks, and she was also highly adaptable and integrated well with our team. Hayley was able to adapt to the technical demands of the complex subject matter, and her work consistently exceeded expectations. Her animations look great and we were able to deliver on time for the launch. Throughout, the team found her very easygoing and enjoyable to work with. If you are after an Animator who can jump into any project and has the attitude and skill to get it done, I highly recommend Hayley. We look forward to working with her again.

“We’ll definitely be working with Hayley again”

Hayley produced two fantastic explainer videos about design thinking; one of our key services at The Strategy Group. Hayley was great to work with, always professional and positive, and came up with creative ways to visualise abstract concepts. She explained the video creation process and ensured we got the best value and approach to meet our goals. She also grasped our brand look and feel and created tailored animations that fit it really well. We'll definitely be working with Hayley again, and I'd recommend her services to B2B or B2C organisations looking for a great quality on-brand video. Thanks again Hayley!

“I would recommend Hayley for anyone who need to build an explainer video quickly with exceptional quality.”

At GiveEasy, we offer digital payments for charities, we needed a way to easily explain our most popular product in less than 90 seconds. An explainer video was the best way to go, and Hayley made the process smooth and turned around a series of explainer videos in just a few short weeks. Hayley was able of offer suggestions as to length of script, visual style, tempo, music selection, and voice over. Her experience in translating our script into an explainer animation was the perfect match. Her ability to keeping our message clear and concise shines through in our final animation. Hayley provided a virtual editing space, where we could collaborate as the project progressed. Being able to access everything online and over the phone was perfect for me. The storyboards were really easy to understand, and I could easily make comments and edits at every stage of the process. Our animation is something we are proud of and excited to show the charities we work with. I would recommend Hayley for anyone who need to build an explainer video quickly with exceptional quality.

“She’s professional, creative and a pleasure to partner with”

I worked with Hayley on a video project and she was fantastic. She helped visualise exactly what I wanted and even though we were in 2 different states, working with her was seamless. She's professional, creative and a pleasure to partner with.

“we were really impressed with her artistic skills and quality of work”

QAIHC worked with Hayley to develop Alcohol and Other Drugs (AOD) animation videos for Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander health professionals, families and young people. She was able to capture what we had in mind and we were really impressed with her artistic skills and quality of work including the cartoon characters and animations. We were please with the end products and how she accommodated our edits. We recommend Hayley and her skills on animation videos.

“Hayley was an absolute gem”

Hayley was an absolute gem for us to find. We were in need of a creative animator to bring our unique branding to life for our business launch. Hayley quickly understood our brand identity, asked all the right questions and delivered a creative execution well beyond our expectations. What impressed me more was the way Hayley operates. She is crystal clear with her expectations, purposeful in any questions and delivered all of the technical elements in the most professional manner. If you are looking for a creative animator who listens and executes every time, Hayley is your person.

“I felt like Hayley saw visual ideas in my mind and produced it.”

I was looking for someone who can create an animation video in Cairns and I found Hayley through a member from Study Cairns. It was my first time creating such video so I wasn't sure what to expect, but Hayley explained the process simple enough for me to understand which reassured me that I could work with her well. Once the project started, I noticed that Hayley is exceptionally organised and experienced. When I needed to make any decisions during the process, she always gave me valid points to consider in order for me to make the best decision. The video we created was for audiences in Papua New Guinea which Hayley didn't know much about, however, I could tell that she did good research about the country and culture so that images she created would be appropriate for our target audiences. When I saw the first draft video Hayley sent me, I had an overwhelming excitement which exactly the feeling I want my target audience to have. I felt like Hayley saw visual ideas in my mind and produced it. It's been such a pleasure working with Hayley and I highly recommend her for creating a quality animation video.

“Our expectations were met with a very high standard”

I had the pleasure of working with Hayley and Curl Co. Productions in 2020 in partnership developing a great animation video that had to be culturally appropriate to suit a wide range of audiences, Hayley works in a very professional manner and brought a wide range of skills that the team and myself valued during the production of this video. Our expectations were met with a very high standard and in a very timely manner due to deadlines. Hayley displays a wide range of skills and experience within this field and I would highly recommend Hayley to others seeking these services as it was a very pleasant experience to work with and alongside Hayley and Curl Co. Productions. Keep up the great work.

“She brings to any project both her creative editing & graphic design”

Hayley is one of our favourite freelance editors. She brings to any project both her creative editing & graphic design but also an organisational and project management rigour that we value very highly. She takes the time to understand the content and delivers within our, sometimes tight, schedules. My only hesitation in recommending her is that her availability to Anvil Media risks being reduced.

“Hayley’s great animation and storytelling”

Hayley has done a great piece of work for us at News Corp Australia. We wanted to create a wrap-up summary video of the year's work from an insights programme across a number of different topics. Having done previous videos in-house, I was looking for a professional output blending raw video footage with Hayley's great animation and storytelling. I really appreciated working with Hayley and found that Hayley understood the brief from the get go and brought along great ideas to the storyboarding and creative process. She was on hand for any last minute changes from stakeholders and adapted to the needs of the business. We received great feedback from the video produced by Hayley and successfully cut through to a number of senior executives. I look forward to working with Curl Co. Productions in the near future and would recommend to anyone who has similar needs.
