How to grow crystals, including gorgeous microscope footage.

Director's Notes:

Team Team NEF write:

Making crystals from a saturated salt solution, then watching crystals grow under a USB microscope. We got the idea to make this video while studying crystallisation in science class.

Unfortunately the final quality of the video was hampered by our not so powerful laptop!
