The Mysterious Pearl is a 3D theme park ride created for an ocean park in Shanghai, China. The ride combines an eight-minute stereoscopic animated film with a moving vehicle. The story follows a mermaid and a family of sea creatures on a quest to save the world. Each ride vehicle includes seven special effects, such as vertical drops and horizontal motions, repeated in time with the animation. Characters and animation were created in Maya, effects in Houdini, and compositing in After Effects and Flame.
