Under the sea gala event

Under The Sea - Gala Event

Whimsical Under the Sea animation for the Metcash annual gala event. Using supplied artwork, I was asked to create a 30 second looping background for large screens, keeping the printed style consistent while adding playful, cartoon motion with a dance feel.

Underwater scene with glowing text 'Under the Sea' surrounded by coral, seaweed, rocks, and bubbles.

Artwork was supplied in separate layers. I reorganised and rebuilt the background, extending elements and preparing them to match the final animation resolution and composition.

Illustration of underwater sea life including fish, seahorses, jellyfish, coral, seaweed, and the text 'Under the Sea' encircled by blue underwater elements.

I animated the individual elements, adding movement to fish, characters, and environment. Timing was designed to loop seamlessly and sync to a playful track, creating a lively background without distracting from the event content.
