The students looked after the seal whilst the RSPCA came to its rescue, carefully transferring the seal back into the sea. Maybe the seal was wanting to get into animation after hearing about the Animation Course at Edge Hill University.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image aligncenter size-full\"><a href=\"https:\/\/blogs.edgehill.ac.uk\/animation\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/65\/2019\/10\/IMG_0489.jpg\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"1000\" height=\"667\" src=\"https:\/\/blogs.edgehill.ac.uk\/animation\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/65\/2019\/10\/IMG_0489.jpg\" alt=\"A young seal on the beach at Llandudno\" class=\"wp-image-1003\" srcset=\"https:\/\/blogs.edgehill.ac.uk\/animation\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/65\/2019\/10\/IMG_0489.jpg 1000w, https:\/\/blogs.edgehill.ac.uk\/animation\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/65\/2019\/10\/IMG_0489-300x200.jpg 300w, https:\/\/blogs.edgehill.ac.uk\/animation\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/65\/2019\/10\/IMG_0489-768x512.jpg 768w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 1000px) 100vw, 1000px\" \/><\/a><figcaption>A young seal on the beach at Llandudno<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<p>The seal first appears on the beach at Llandudno<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image aligncenter size-large\"><a href=\"https:\/\/blogs.edgehill.ac.uk\/animation\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/65\/2019\/10\/IMG_0492.jpg\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"1024\" height=\"682\" src=\"https:\/\/blogs.edgehill.ac.uk\/animation\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/65\/2019\/10\/IMG_0492-1024x682.jpg\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-998\" srcset=\"https:\/\/blogs.edgehill.ac.uk\/animation\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/65\/2019\/10\/IMG_0492-1024x682.jpg 1024w, https:\/\/blogs.edgehill.ac.uk\/animation\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/65\/2019\/10\/IMG_0492-300x200.jpg 300w, https:\/\/blogs.edgehill.ac.uk\/animation\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/65\/2019\/10\/IMG_0492-768x512.jpg 768w, https:\/\/blogs.edgehill.ac.uk\/animation\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/65\/2019\/10\/IMG_0492.jpg 2000w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 1024px) 100vw, 1024px\" \/><\/a><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<p><br>The seal then manages to get itself up off the beach and onto the walkway that runs alongside the beach where its looked after by 1st year Edge Hill animation students<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image aligncenter size-full\"><a href=\"https:\/\/blogs.edgehill.ac.uk\/animation\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/65\/2019\/10\/IMG_0486.jpg\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"1000\" height=\"667\" src=\"https:\/\/blogs.edgehill.ac.uk\/animation\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/65\/2019\/10\/IMG_0486.jpg\" alt=\"Seal at Llandudno beach looking relaxed\" class=\"wp-image-1004\" srcset=\"https:\/\/blogs.edgehill.ac.uk\/animation\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/65\/2019\/10\/IMG_0486.jpg 1000w, https:\/\/blogs.edgehill.ac.uk\/animation\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/65\/2019\/10\/IMG_0486-300x200.jpg 300w, https:\/\/blogs.edgehill.ac.uk\/animation\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/65\/2019\/10\/IMG_0486-768x512.jpg 768w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 1000px) 100vw, 1000px\" \/><\/a><figcaption>The friendly seal takes a breather relaxing on the beach<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image aligncenter size-full\"><a href=\"https:\/\/blogs.edgehill.ac.uk\/animation\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/65\/2019\/10\/IMG_0490.jpg\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"1000\" height=\"667\" src=\"https:\/\/blogs.edgehill.ac.uk\/animation\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/65\/2019\/10\/IMG_0490.jpg\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-1001\" srcset=\"https:\/\/blogs.edgehill.ac.uk\/animation\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/65\/2019\/10\/IMG_0490.jpg 1000w, https:\/\/blogs.edgehill.ac.uk\/animation\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/65\/2019\/10\/IMG_0490-300x200.jpg 300w, https:\/\/blogs.edgehill.ac.uk\/animation\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/65\/2019\/10\/IMG_0490-768x512.jpg 768w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 1000px) 100vw, 1000px\" \/><\/a><figcaption>The seal relaxing on the beach sealed and delivered<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<p><br>Anyone for a joke that has a seal of approval<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Q: Why do seals swim in salt water?<br>A: Because pepper water would make them sneeze<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Last week saw the first and second year Animation students going on the annual trip to Wales staying in Llandudno with a day out trip to Betws y Coed where the students got into drawing and capturing audio.
