A dive through a coral reef, built as a real-time environment in Unreal Engine. Rock shelves, branching corals, sponges, and anemones are scattered across the sea floor, lit by caustics falling from the surface, and the camera drifts through the reef at a diver's pace so the scale of the place reads.
