LECTURES
We had a final consultation session to check on our progress for Task 4.

PROJECT 4 PROCESS WORK
In Adobe After Effects, I set each of the fishes to move around the water.

I also set the water to increase and decrease in size to make it look like it's moving.

Finally, for the brown cat, I set it's head to move in an angle from side to side.
