By treating the fishtank like an ocean, I could include a playful environment. The fish presented an opportunity to develop and sculpt in 3D models. While creating a submarine it allowed me to develop complex objects through simple, basic shapes.

Not only could I create a fun environment, but I was also able to develop the lighting and reflections. From there I developed the animation to give the appearance of a submarine and fish bobbing in the water, while the seaweed could move freely.
