LE BATHYSCAPHE
Ready for a deep dive?
A bathyscaphe is a free-diving, self-propelled deep-sea submersible, consisting of a crew cabin similar to a Bathysphere, but suspended below a float rather than from a surface cable, as in the classic Bathysphere design.

Initially, this shot was just a still image created as an early concept art for a luxury watch project.
After the project took another storytelling direction, I continued to explore this concept for myself as an R&D and it became this VFX shot.
I wanted to see what could be done to simulate a 3D shot in After Effects with very little.

Isolated pass of particles I created for the shot.
Animated noise sample I created as a base for the smoke.
