I created each image from scratch, starting by creating a simple sketch then rendering it in Photoshop. With this production we needed a way to transition from sea to land and back again. With the help of Qlab, Photoshop, Adobe After Effects, and Premiere Pro. I was able to layer multiple images to create an under sea affect as well as tackle the problem of Ariel rescuing Eric from the shipwreck as well as her swimming up to the surface when she gets her legs.
