Over the past week I’ve been working on a few components.

Fluid simulation and integration with existing game/scene.

This was done using a fluid simulation, the camera is taking the xy values of the mouse and moving the fish to it using a transform function.

This was also taken to the truss room to test for resolution as well as effect

Exploration of form of fish using 3D

One of the objectives was also to redesign the fish so that it would suit the design of the installation.

Exploration of form of fish using 2D

This was done digitally using a software known as rebelle. Currently the process might be to create a 2d texture of the fish and then map it on to the 3d model. 2D texture needs to be animated .

Some ideas for interaction.

Fish will change color when it is triggered by the player.

Red fish will leave a trail as it swims

Ink Trial of two fishes will interact with each other.

Final product will not be censored.

Over the week I’ve been does sketches of fishes to see how best I can animate it as well as exploring its form to understand better the way it moves
