Koi Fish (CS307, hwk6 Creative Scene!)

Emily Wang, Fall 2014

Features of this iteration of the koi fish:

• Bezier curves + Lathe geometries for the fish body and fins!!
• Texture mapping with a lathe geometry
• Coordinate transforms for placing the fins/eyes
• Scene in a box
• Ambient + Directional lights

Sources of texture images:

• Purple scales
• Shiny silver fins
• Pond background, with this one in particular

Brainstorming ideas for the next iterations (perhaps some features for a koi pond final project!):

• Geometry: Variations on koi fish shapes/sizes
• Animation: Fish swimming
• Animation: Have multiple fish swimming together
• Animation: Water ripple effects
• Lighting: Consider eather/Water lighting in scene
• Textures: Different textures/colors for multiple fish in scene
• Scene: Add rocks (convex geometries maybe?) and/or plants
• Camera: Different views of the pond
