Motivation
The idea of this project came from the image above. I like the story the image tells and the atmosphere it creates by beeing under water. It also fits this years theme "out of place" perfectly. I decided to render a underwater bar scene as my final rendering, which should capture a slightly darker setting, inspired by bar scenes that appeared in "The Mandalorian". A concept drawing of my scene can be seen here:
