Michael Hudson is a writer, director, producer, and proud Bangarang and Yorta Yorta man from northeast Victoria.

One of Michael's notable achievements includes winning the Short Screenplay Award at the Sydney Film Festival in 2019 for his deeply personal short drama film, "Ties That Bind". This project also received nominations for Best Director and Best Indigenous Film at CinfestOz in 2020. Michael's storytelling skills and passion for First Nations culture were further showcased when he co-produced, co-wrote, and directed the ABC docu-web series titled "Can You Hear Me?" as well as Network Ten's "Stuff Everyone Should Know About Australia." Another notable project was his involvement in the development of the ABC comedy docu-web series, "No Offence."

Michael has emerged as a promising new filmmaker and has been selected for prestigious programs and initiatives, including Untapped 2022, MIFF Accelerator Lab, SBS Digital Originals, AFTRS Talent Camp, Developing the Developer, and Screen Australia First Nations development initiatives - Short Black and Shock Treatment. In 2022, Michael had the opportunity to enhance his skills as a director during an attachment on the sci-fi drama feature film "Foe", directed by Garth Davis. Later that year, he joined the producing teams at Causeway Films and No Coincidence Media for the First Nations horror feature "The Moogai", directed by Jon Bell. Both attachments were supported by Screen Australia First Nations and VicScreen.

In 2023, Michael turned his attention to developing his own slate of works which combines his passion for First Nations culture and genre storytelling. He is working on his horror/dark fantasy series, "Summer of Evil," in partnership with Orange Entertainment. Additionally, he is developing two horror feature films, "Unravel" and "Conservation."
