Pop-up Book

This project was my first attempt at using Renderman. The goal of this project was to create a pop-up book of any kind. I chose to go for a sea creature themed popup book. Below are some rendered stills of my final result and further down is my process. 

Inspirational Images:

Below are inspirational images that I used for my fish models and my scene model.

Paper Model:

Paper model to form an idea for my actual pop-up book. I drifted away from my original test model for my final result.

Final Thoughts:

My final renders evolved from what I had orignally imagined but,I am happy
with the evolution of my popup book. Figuring out the ocean shader was the 
final moment where I felt my scene was complete. In discovering this I was
able to find a way to have a choesive image without anything standing out.
I would like to eventually render out an animation of this scene to explore 
animating the waves.
