Blackdown Hills AONB presents… Crayfish!

 In Art & culture, Culm Community Crayfish, Nature & wildlife

With the help of some very creative young visitors to the River Culm Fair, we have put together this charming little stop-frame animation.

A big thank you to everyone who took part, and especially to Tim Martin for providing the animation know-how.

Back in September, as part of our Culm Community Crayfish project we teamed up with River Culm Fair, with its fabulous Soap Box Derby, to provide all manner of crayfish-themed activities. You can see below some of the pictures from the event, and an insight into how the crayfish animation was made.
