Illustrations
The illustrations you can see in the video were painted digitally with the Open Source software Krita, version 5, which incorporates new features like storyboarding, and improves on old ones, such as the animation tools and the two point perspective assistant.
3D Characters
Captain Nemo's character and the shark models were sculpted in Blender and retopologized with the Retopoflow addon by CG Cookie. The animated 3D text was generated with Blender's Geometry Nodes, a versatile system that can simplify otherwise complex and repetitive tasks of animation and geometry manipulation.
Audiobook Music
The two original pieces composed for this narration are "Nemo's Secrets" and "Pearly White."
