Frostbytes
APECS has teamed up with the WCRP Climate and Cryosphere (CliC) Project to share interesting information about the Polar and Alpine regions as well as the wider Cryosphere through FrostBytes – 'Soundbytes of Cool Research'. These 30-60 second audio or video recordings are designed to help researchers easily share their latest findings to a broad audience. On this page you will find information on how to create your own FrostByte as well as a few examples (find more examples here).

Tips for Making An Award-Winning Frostbyte
When I started making my Frostbyte, I kept a few things in mind. I wanted it to be fairly simple (easy to make, easy to follow). I wanted it to be fun (both for myself and for viewers). And I wanted it to have some sort of a storyline (in this case, I followed the arc of my poster). As for tools, I had the figures already created for my poster, I took timelapse video of myself writing on a whiteboard using my iPhone and the Hyperlapse app, I got some free/rights-free music via Vimeo, and I put it all together using iMovie.
