Marine Matchup

"Shelly and Rayna's Marine Matchup" was a project for Gator TPED's Swamp Thrills 2023. Our team was challenged to design an underwater-inspired theme park experience with innovative technology that could be integrated into a park.

Presentation

This video shows the full concept we presented for the competition. The rest of this page focuses on just the drawings I worked on specifically.

Ride Vehicles

In Marine Matchup, guests would be "transformed" via their ride vehicles into sea turtles and manta rays to race each other for the key to a hidden treasure. The vehicles would begin as wooden boats and then an exterior shell would fall away, letting additional features unfold and revealing an animal-like design. From the CAD models our team created, I created paint renderings to visualize what these hidden carts would look like.

Scenes

From meeting a pair of mischievous sirens to exploring underwater caves and currents, I created concept sketches for many of the scenes in our ride you can see here.
