Using dyed spaghetti to explore camouflage and natural selection.
Director's Notes:
This film highlights how the colour or the camoflage of organisms (worms) helps their survival and how they multiply and survive in the wild. Developing the idea was easy, however filming the birds was very difficult and time consuming. Although the group work helped to get some good footage of how the idea of natural selection helps organisms.
