We were struggling with the design of the scene, it seems like it is hard to achieve the result we want with putting amusement park elements into the scene. After the discussion this week, we talked about how to design the main object carousel, ferris wheel, and the whole scene. Firstly, we imagined it to be transparent glass texture with ocean animals rides such as, whales and dolphins.

It’s more like this kind of glass in this image. We wanted to replace the deer with whales and dolphins. While the carousel is spinning, the animals will slightly move and they are supposed to be floating in the air.

We did more research about how to make the scene look like the style in the reference I gave in week 01 post. We want our scenes are simple and clean but it’s well designed, like the references we found below.

And then we came up with an idea to not use the amusement park as the main elements any more. Instead, we want to create a huge bird cage with glass whales, dolphins, and other fish that swimming in the cage, and it’s hanging on a huge statue of a hand, Or the cage could be holding by the hand statue.

Modeling

This week, I’ve finished the modeling of the bird cage.
