Hi stigronaldt, I recently completed a similar project. Message me so I can show you that sample. Question: Which exact trap and trigger path should I model (funnel pot with one‑way entrance, spring‑loaded jaw with sear, or drop‑door gate), at what real‑world scale and materials, and should the fish’s motion physically trigger it or should we showcase a clean mechanical activation without fish? Suggestion: Create a 10–12s mixed‑perspective sequence: 1) orthographic cutaway/x‑ray preview of force paths; 2) macro slow‑mo of the sear release at 120 fps using rigid‑body constraints with 8–16 substeps for precise contact; 3) real‑time underwater POV with refraction, caustics, volumetric haze, and particulate; 4) final orbit confirming the lock. Rig the mechanism with driven keys and limit constraints for repeatable cycles; tune mass, friction, and restitution for realism; simulate net/line as cloth with bend stiffness and damped springs. Deliver EXR with AOVs plus an edit‑ready MP4. Kindly send me a message, lets discuss in detail and my portfolio is uploaded here and on my website. Best Regards, Sid CTO and Co-Founder of Ekarthaan

Hi, with 25 years of 3D design and Blender animation expertise, I’ll create a lifelike fish trap animation underwater, complete with flowing water effects, trap mechanism movement, and ambient dynamics. Could you clarify: Do you prefer an external view, a submerged POV, or both? Should the trap’s opening animate (e.g. folding or bait release)? Delivery preferences—video render, Blender file, or turntable sequence? Warm regards, The Blend Nation
