We are looking to commission a production company to design and deliver a location-based digital heritage experience based on the Willie John Smith photographic collection documenting Cromarty’s historic fishing community. The project aims to engage local community members to co-create new content including oral history, forming part of an immersive audio narrative. The final output will be a free, mobile-access location-based 8-10 stop digital walking tour through the town of Cromarty, and a fully accessible online version for remote audiences.
