The concept was to highlight the deep sea creatures’ obscurity by depicting them in darker colors and in a setting reminiscent of tanks in a laboratory.  The illustrations were drawn in an abstract style to emphasize the unconventional appearances of these creatures while simplifying the process to adhere to a 30-minute creation rule. The animations were deliberately minimal to evoke a feeling of being “trapped” and eeriness, yet varied enough to demonstrate the individuality of each species.
